It's the first day of July, 2022 and it's a sunny and windy Friday here, as another Tropical Depression named Domeng may intensify further into a tropical storm today, according to PAG-ASA. Keep safe especially to our kababayans near the waters or in landslide and flood-prone areas. It's also the second day of cleaning and disinfecting, so I woke up so early again to check the sick puppy, feed the chickens, get some woods, boil water, cook food for me and our dogs and cats.…
Santol kayo jan, at free na naman! Tindera lang ang peg at kahapon banana cue, now santol na naman ang nilalako ko hahaha. Sayang kasi at niyugyog ng pamangkin ko ang mga sanga para makuha ang mga bunga sa taas. Yun lang, pati yung medyo hilaw napitas din kaya pinulot ko na lang and naka tatlong balde ako. Binabad ko muna sa tubig na may suka at asin para malinis. Nag disinfect and naglaba kasi ako the whole morning at nagkasakit mga furbabies eh so I need to protect baby…
Banana cue kayo jan, free lang! As if madami ano, haha. I only cooked 3 pieces saba banana for I'm alone so it's enough for me. And finally, na try din to cook banana cue from homemade coconut oil. We're used to buy cooking oil eh and only tried once before using homemade coconut oil or lana in Hiligaynon to fry. We don't like much the taste at first but it's still the same coconut oil we bought so, why not coconut. You can smell the sweet aroma of latik or the solid coconut…
Indeed, it's a busy Monday for me that I did not notice the time. It's already quarter to 6pm and 3 of my tasks today will be continued next day. This happens when the Barangay Tanod, cook, and dokie quack-quack is on duty for almost 24 hours today until tomorrow maybe. Goodluck sa beauty, este sa dugo ni inday. I was not feeling well few days ago but my recovery was quite fast so here I am again, magbubuwis ng ilang patak ng dugo. The planned vacation of my mama and papa…
My viand earlier na parang kwan daw ni piggy porky, ginataang dahon ng balinghoy/kamoteng kahoy or young cassava leaves cooked in coconut milk! Hindi alam o hindi kumakain nito ang mga rich kids but me, this is one of my favorites lalo pa if more pure coconut milk, onions, garlic, and ginger. I forgot when was the last time we have this as our viand, kaya super na miss ko siya. How I wish we have more cassava plants so that I can cook again next days, but we only have…
I was not able to witness the rare 5-planet alignment this morning! But it's okay, last April I had the chance to take photos of Jupiter, Venus, Mars, and Saturn's parade, joined by Moon for how many days. This month, Mercury joined Jupiter, Venus, Mars, and Saturn on their rehearsal last June 17 before Moon joined the show this June 24-25. And the last time this alignment happened was in March 5, 1864. Since I did not wake up early this morning to witness the parade of 5…
I'm not feeling well since yesterday, maybe because of the sudden change of weather or maybe because of lack of sleep few days ago. My throat is dry and itchy and I keep on sneezing, but I still do my usual routines. I still work in the garden while offline then back to online world. And it's not the reason why I can't be here so often. It's my internet connection that is also sick since few days ago until now. It's actually more sick than me 😅. Ay, ilam kanimo Globe! Good…
When it rains, it pours! Literally it rained hard today, few minutes after my parents, my brother and his family arrived from 2 days vacation. And I remember, it also rained here few minutes after they left the house last Monday. When they reached their destination, it also rained hard with thunder and lightning few minutes after they entered my aunt's house. My another blessings ang barangay tanod/rescuer from my aunts and kuya cousin dear. I only asked my aunt some plants…
My early lunch for today, boiled giant bananas and jackfruit. Early lunch because I am a rescuer early in the morning, not a Barangay Tanod anymore, haha! I rescued Baby Maki, my niece's puppy at around 3am this morning because his back foot was stuck in between of tricycle's railings or whatever it is called basta sa tricycle. I thought I was just dreaming that there is a puppy screaming outside, but it was Maki boy. Poor puppy waiting for his master to rescue him but my…
The Barangay Tanod is done roving around the area of responsibility to ensure the safety of residents este of the dragon fruits. Ano yun, hahaha! Kabilin-bilinan kasi ng tatay ko kahapon na icheck yung dragon fruits baka mabawasan hahaha! Lagot na... He knows the total number of fruits so if one fruit went missing, he will investigate us hahaha! But of course, honest naman ako and I will just keep the fruits I picked inside the refrigerator. Though, I'm free naman to eat it…
I'm done eating my early dinner, visiting our garden veggies, checking the night lights outside, washing the dishes, and feeding our cats and dogs. Now, I'm just sitting in front of my phone while the tv is on at my back haha! Sitting pretty na ang barangay tanod 😅. Mother and father were not here for they have an unplanned 2 days vacay at mama's second home near the beach, so I'm all alone until tomorrow night. It was unplanned because my brother will only deliver the tiles…
It's a sunny day here and I would like to greet a Happy, Happy Father's Day to all papas, daddies, uncles, grandfathers, brothers, friends, and to all single moms who act as both dad and mom! We have no celebration today but I let my phone to be away from me for almost half an hour, for my nieces wanted to talk to their grandpa and grandma. Now, they are sleeping on "papag" (wooden bed) under the tamarind tree and will have boiled giant bananas and coffee for merienda in an…
"You don't have to cook fancy or complicated masterpieces - just good food from fresh ingredients." - Julia Child Yes, naman simple food yet so healthy! Aanhin mo naman ang bonggang-bonggang food but puro unhealthy at pricey pa. While you can have simple, healthy and almost free foods. It's a dream come true for me to have this as my viand today hahaha! Ayan, ang dami ko kasing nakikita dito na menus na may munggo eh kaya I asked helped from my mama to have ginataang munggo…
If you plant, you harvest! Heto na naman tayo sa kasabihang "Kapag may itinanim, may aanihin." As if ang dami kong itinanim, haha. And since merienda time na, let's eat our harvests. I have here ginanggang or grilled dalili variety banana and salted peanuts with more garlic. Ayaw ng zombies ito at mabaho ang garlic. The giant bananas were harvested few days ago and peanuts were from our harvest 3 years ago and last year. I already have 3 raised beds, recycled bottles, and…
I woke up late today because it rained hard yesterday afternoon until night so the weather was cold. And instead of waking up at 5:30 am or 6 am, I woke up when the sun was already shining bright and I don't like it! I'm feeling weak when I woke up late. Sleep experts say, the health benefits of waking up early with the sun - not exactly before it or after it, will make us feeling calmer, motivated, and productive. The morning light according to oladoc. com boosts the…
Let's receive the gift from above, the gift of protection from plants, early in the morning! Let's continue to calm our organs even the crypto prices are going down, down, down by transferring plant's shield called phytochemicals against stress and diseases. I'm listening to health discussion almost every morning so the more I'm motivated to eat healthy foods. And they're true, why would you try hard to catch, hurt, and kill animals to eat when fruits and vegetables always…
The Lost Bolo Two days ago, our town's social media page posted a photo of Andres Bonifacio at his shrine located at our town plaza without his bolo. And according to a post, the LGU replaced the lost bolo several times already as it is often destroyed or taken. They're appealing to those who were responsible to render respect to people who gave their lives for the freedom we are enjoying now. Many kababayans reacted and some commented that maybe someone borrowed and used it…
The Crush ng Bayan Mr. Ian Veneracion, the lead actor of "A Love To Kill" Netflix Series together with his youngest son Duccio was here in our town yesterday. In some photos they were seen wearing the traditional costume of Indigenous People of our town. I only knew he was here when I saw manang First Lady's photos with Sir Ian in front of a mall just across their house, huhuhaha! Their team was welcomed and served with the famous delicacy of our town, "sinapid nga mais" or…
Care Not Scare! I was about to check some history posts on an FB page I followed but I saw my virtual ate's shared post how we scare our organs (credited to Fils Mbadu). And this is another reminder for us to take good care of our health for remember, this is the best gift we can give for our family and for the world right? How scared you are while watching horror movies, reading horror stories, or if you're in the dark and alone, maybe that's how our organs react when we…
"I believe that the greatest gift you can give your family and the world is a healthy you." - Joyce Meyer Agree or disagree? Sometimes, it's good to have a reminder like this how important our health is for it can help us in motivating ourselves to a healthier lifestyle. Now that aside from covid, monkey pox, dengue and leptospirosis cases, the Department of Health-Davao City has detected 17 suspected cases of Chikungunya virus according to GMA News few minutes ago.…
Lost, and found! Last week, I removed my sim card with the number attached to my Coinsph and Paypal accounts and replaced it with my other sim used for my wifi to check if I still have regular load. Due to my beeziness, I was not aware where I put it. It’s always offline and I’m only using it to access my accounts, receiving OTP codes, and not for calling or texting so ayun, I can’t find it anymore. I only realized that it was lost when I tried to open my Paypal account last…
Hello here, how's your Sunday? I'm now relaxing in front of tv while eating the remaining half of my early dinner. After reheating the food from my youngest sister's late birthday celebration, after feeding our dogs and cats, and my eldest brother's dogs, finally I'm back to online world. My Sunday is again fully-booked, hahaaay! 11 dogs and 4 cats, parang sumakit bigla ang mga tuhod ko. How I wish I was like these cutie baby models ng laptop in photos, si baby aw-aw Dos and…
My phone is away from me because mama is having a video chat with my youngest sistah and they're so noisy haha! I told mama to go to the kitchen so that papa can also talk to their youngest baby "damulag" who is miles away from us. I'm about to open my earning apps when sistah called but I don't want to disturb them so, I'm now using another device to make some noise. It was her birthday yesterday and I greeted her early in the morning thru messenger but it was an advanced…
Bihira na lang ako magka time maglibot dito sa noise ngayon, kahit uugod-ugod ang signal nakapasyal din sa sulok-sulok ng noise. Hope StarLink na ni Elon yung sagot sa internet problem natin, ano. Ito na sis Jen, nagtatagalig ako dahil di ako porenjer, at bumabalentong na nga English natin eh. At dahil nakapasyal sa sulok-sulok, dami ko pa din napapansin na namaaan...na sila-sila lang nagpapalitan ng freetips, hayysss. Samantalang ang daming users yung zero talaga. And ako…
It rained hard this afternoon so I'm now freezing! Parang may isnow lang sa labas kaya I need to wrap my feet with blanket while watching tv and migming Leila is sleeping on my lap. I'm already sleepy but I still need to finish some tasks I missed earlier because I fried some bananas for merienda before cooking food for dinner. And since I'm almost full with fried saba bananas, I ate less rice for dinner kaya nakatipid na naman. Mahal na dw mga bilihin? I don't know yet kz…
Hello, June! It's the first day of the month of weddings, Philippine Independence, school openings, the middle of the year and still the best month to plant alternative crops, veggies like bitter gourd, squash, eggplant, beans, and chilis. Also the continuation of May flower blooms like these dragon fruit blooms. Last year, the blooms started early February and after a month, we harvested some fruits until the month of September I think. Now, due to the unpredictable…
It's the last day of Flores De Mayo and so my mama has some "putsiko" or bring home foods. It's also the last part of eating today since these foods have animal-based ingredients, yayyy! I have to pick some ingredients and give it to our mingmings and I paired it with sweetless dragon fruit shake. Every year, 4 or 5 families share their blessings to the children and devotees of Mama Mary. Our grandma (my grandma's younger sister and other distant relative's family have…
Ming-ming, mukhang araw2, linggo2 ako napapagalitan dito tapos pina-delay mo pa hahaha! Di ko tuloy alam if saan ako magpipindot sa phone o sa laptop at yung kinakatakutan ko ayan na naman. Nag promise pa naman ako na ma zero na ito sa 2022 at starting January 1 wala. Not until on the last weeks of April I think nag-umpisa na naman. Thank you noise, and sorry din po! And ito yung isa sa naisip ko na ma-miss ko if ever matigil na ang grasya dito. But madami naman nakilig sa…
It's a rainy evening here, and I thought it won't rain since we only heard loud thunderstorms in the afternoon and the sky was quite clear. Let's have dinner guys, I have here sauteed mung bean sprouts with miswa, tomatoes, karupdop (wild edible fungi/split gills mushroom) with lots of red onions, spring onions, and garlics. I cooked this before I finished my laundry and so I'm having my late dinner again, quite tired and sleepy. It's Sunday but with Saturday feels since I'm…
So, everybody happy na??? Thank you noise.cash and Sir Marc at nakilig na sila ulit ayieee. Natatawa ako isipin na "nagkinala-kala na daw mga paka" tayo dito since 3 days ago hahaaa! That's a Hiligaynon expression if people were so noisy about something like froggy frog-frog. Sabi ko nga eh stay positive, huwag lang sa covid at hope may naging shrimp na na anchovy jan and if tumaas ay may crabs, and dolphins na 😂. Huwag ubusin sa Shopee and Lazada, ha? If our emotions were…
