Rice, Sison & Globe Tattoo

After eating ice cream and husband taking my pulubi-look photo, I asked my husbanda
“tart san tayo pupunta?”
he lovingly answered “ikaw”
Me——- punta tayo sa palengke, bibili ako ng bigas.
Edm—— ayoko dun, ayokong pumunta sa bayan, traffic.

So we dropped him off at the hotel.

(Take-off your sunglasses Miss Wa, it’s not a good idea going to the market wearing sunglasses, mapagkamalan ka)

Me——— “Deo sa palengke, alam mo ang daan?
Deo——– Sa Sison? Sison?

I saw the Mercury Drug in Session Road, “ipara mo Deo”,
I bought Aspilets (82 mg Aspirin) for my daily Aspirin maintenance.

I bought na rin Concore 5 mg, Lipitor 10 mg, Dulcolax 8 pcs. (yuks) etc.

There’s no parking in front of the rice vendors kaya dapat choose fast, pay fast and leave fast.

I bought a cavan of Dinorado for our maids kasi they don’t like the P1,500 a cavan. NFA daw, mabaho daw. I found out they were giving the 1/4 sack to the garbage collector and threw away some. They were eating pala our Biryani rice I bought from Costco. Mga kunsumisyon.
One time I went to Tiendesitas in Pasig to buy rice for our household helpers, the owner of the rice stall said “Naku Mam, yung mga taga Valle Verde iyan ang binibili, sobra naman ang mga maids nyo, anak mayaman?” I answered “siguro”.

I hope they will like this instead. The vendor assured me that this is fragrant and soft.

I bought a cavan of the organic/ upland one. See, there’s just one peso difference.

The Tabuk rice is cheaper but I’m pretty sure it would just go to waste. They will not like that.

I did not go deep into the market. I just stayed at the “bukana” where the rice and fruits are.

I bought 2 big melon.

and two packs of ponkan. I like drinking freshly squeezed ponkan (kiatkiat) in the evening. One pack can make one big glass of pure orange juice, or two small glasses diluted with ice.

I paid P20 for 6 pieces of palitaw. I just wanted to help the lady but when I tasted it, it was so delicious and freshly cooked.

Deo sa SM, diretso ka lang, bago dumating yung Burnham Park kaliwa tapos diretso, sa dulo kaliwa. Nakikita mo yung SM, hayun oh?.
yes Mam.—–
Deo——— Mam, sa Camp John Hay tayo?
ES EM!
Deo——– ah yes mam.

Deo——– Mam, san ko kayo ibababa.
Me——— Sa main entrance nila.
Me——— Dun pa, babaan ito ng jeep.
Deo——– yes mam.
Me——— Dyan na ako bababa, Deo, dyan na ako bababa, DEOOO! LAMPAS NA TAYO, HAYUN ANG ENTRANCE OH!
Deo——- yes mam, aatras ako.
Me——– dito rin ako lalabas, mga 30 minutes lang ako.
Deo—— yes mam.

SM is always full of people

It’s Christmas

I have been planning to subscribe to Globe Tattoo so I could have 24 hour wi-fi but I never got the time to go to any Globe office. They’ve actually called many times before but I didn’t want to entertain random callers getting personal informations so I didn’t entertain them. But now I have decided that I need it. Edmund said “dito ka pa sa Baguio mag-a-apply? ano provincial rate?” I have a forced vacation so it’s a good time to do the things I couldn’t do when in Manila.
this is one. So Globe here I come.

I paid P999 for the first month charge the rest including the P150/month payment for the gadget would just be included in my monthly globe subscription. I spent some 30 mintues inside their globe office.

Uhaw ako.
Me———- Meron kayong pure juice?
Guy——— Meron
Me——— Okay, isa nga.
Guy——- Shake lang meron,
Me——- Sabi mo merong pure
Guy—— shake lang
Me——- okay, isang shake pero pwede bang walang syrup or sugar?
Guy—— pwede mam.
Me——- ay, bakit mo nilagyan ng syrup
Guy—— ay, nalimutan ko.
Me——- ha? isang segundo pa lang nakalipas?
Guy—— kalahati pa lang naman nailagay ko.
Me—— O, ano yang —- di ba condensed milk yan
Guy—– hindi mam, evap
Me—— pero may halong condensed yan.
Guy—– konti lang mam,
Me—— ako ang iinom, hindi ikaw.

Zagu’s dozen staff

SM’s back has a nice view of Baguio City. It’s 5:30 pm and I could see it’s getting foggy.

Time to go back to the hotel, I made a 7 pm dinner reservation at Chef’s Home, where President Pnoy orders pepper crab.

Hello Deo? dito na’ko sa labas.
San Mam?
Sunduin mo na ako dito sa entrance
San Mam
Kung saan mo ako ibinaba!
yes mam.
