Upon entering the store near the pharmacy there was a sign posted saying to register for vaccines that will be held on April 12, 2025. Carmina called up Becky asking if she is interested remembered to look out for the flu shot. Becky said yes and asked her to give me full name, birthdate and phone number contact information. Carmina also called up Mom Violy said alright and still faraway to decide.  Carmina felt Mom Violy should get the flu shot since we'll be traveling to California upcoming vacation.

Carmina's Review on Buko Pandan Loaf from Edsa Shangri-la Hotel Bake Shop

Mom Violy had informed me that she would like to buy her banana bread at the Edsa Shangri-la Hotel  bake shop. Entering inside the bake shop Mom Violy asked me what I wanted to buy. First thing I saw was the buko pandan loaf. It was the last one on the shelf.  Mom Violy said are you sure this is the one you want. I said yes. I've never seen it before inside the bake shop. I am not sure if it is a seasonal item being holy week.  The price of the Buko Pandan Loaf is 260.00 pesos ($4.73) but if you have a senior card or PWD there is a discount on the baked goods. Coming home I took pictures for you to see what the buko pandan loaf look inside when you sliced it up. I've been eating for the past days the buko pandan loaf is still moist and soft placed inside the refrigerator in an airtight plastic container. Inside the buko pandan loaf is coconut where you can see is color white and color of the loaf in green of the pandan. How does the buko pandan loaf taste? Biting in the b...
