Yellow bells I can't get enough of these beautiful flowers here at our Bacolod residence. Since my parents passed away, my sister and family stayed in our old house. I am grateful that she had maintained the property. Yellow bells flowers at the entrance gate offered a warm welcome to us coming home. Everytime I come to visit, I can still feel my Mama and Papa' s presence. I can imagine my Papa seated on his rocking chair. We had kept his favorite rocking chair in the living…
Flores in la casa What a beautiful day waking up and seeing these beautiful flowers around us. These are some of the flowers in my sister's garden. She and her husband are very fond of gardening, collecting beautiful plants and flowers. During the time of pandemic and lockdown, they were able to sell some plants to "plantitas" and its sales had helped them a lot in time of crisis. Now that very few are buying plants, we just enjoy their beauty around the house. May these…
This afternoon, We visited the resting place of my beloved Mama and Papa at Rose Lawns Memorial Gardens here in Bacolod City. The area is so peaceful with only a few persons around. I was very grateful for the chance to give due respects to my loving parents after many years of not being able to come here. I miss them so much. Every time I come and visit them, I still feel teary eyed. I love you Mama and Papa! I know that you are watching over us siblings. Happy Mother's Day…
Good morning Noisers. I had a great day bonding with our mentor and some friends in Bacolod City. Our mentor was very much surprised to see us. We just informed his daughters about our visit and they facilitated our dinner together. We also went to a resort yesterday to complete our bonding. We brought some foods to be grilled at the resort. We helped each other cooking and grilling. This event reminded me of our days together when I was still in college and the group…
Good morning. I am now here in Bacolod City visiting our old mentor, chaplain and friend. I am very grateful for this chance to travel and be with old friends. We ate together last night and talked about many important times and memories. During our trip yesterday we past by the mountain area. The view was so beautiful.
FastCat The FastCat that we are waiting has finally arrived at Toledo City Port. We waited for sometime and thankful that we can now board. Another hour or so before we can reach San Carlos City. We have a friend who's waiting at San Carlos City who will join us in going to Bacolod City. This is a fun trip with old friends aboard. God bless our journey.
It's a sunny clear day! The view is in Toledo City , Cebu. I am with my nephew and niece on our way to Bacolod City. We will be visiting an old friend and mentor who can no longer travel far. Praying for our safe trip and successful journey. Happy Thursday my dear Noisers.
Good morning mga kaingay. Ang ganda po ng liwanag sa umagang ito. Salamat Panginoon sa pagising sa akin at nagampanan ko ang aking gawain ngayong umaga. Nakapagluto rin ng baon ni bunso. Dahil ang aga ko nagising, parang lutang pa ako kaya balik tulog muna. Wala po akong ayos na tulog kagabi. Babawi lng po ako ng tulog. Ito na ang kaganapan sa labas , nakikita na po ang haring araw. See you later. #Pilipinas #ShareYourEverydayLife
Good evening dear Noisers. Have you prepared your dinner or have eaten your meal already? I have already cooked our food but we'll eat at 7:30pm yet. I sautéed ampalaya with eggs and fried small korean hotdogs. I am still full too because I ate fried onion rings at 5pm. Well, I just collected all the dried laundry and I noticed the clear sky and the moon shining up above. It's more than 50% illuminated. I am always happy when I see the moon. It makes me smile and brings back…
It's a busy Tuesday for me. I had to wake up very early today to cook rice for bunso's baon because she went to the office. I gave her some beef steak and fried pork tonkatso for her ulam. Since it's our laundry schedule, I made two wash loads. The first load was done and also hanged to dry. The second load is currently washing which are bedsheets and pillowcases. While doing the laundry, I also cooked our lunch. I had chicken adobo with boiled eggs. I guess this is enough…
We are creating a video for my sister-in-law's birthday and we chose the soundtrack of "This Girl is on Fire". We had some shots taken at the garden, garage and terrace. My role was already done here in the garden but when I saw the red 🔥 skies, I went to our terrace to get some photos of the skies. The third photo showed the moon shining as early as 6:20pm . Good evening. #ILoveNature #Photography
As I was sitting here to get some fresh air, I noticed that my potted snake plants have spikes of soon to be blooming flowers. I feel so lucky to see these snake plants blooming. This is the first time that the potted plants are flowering. I usually see the snake plants bloomed at the plants which were found outside our gate planted at the plant box. I remember the fragrant smell of these flowers. I can't wait 'til these spikes blooms. #ILoveFlowers
Election Day My daughters and I went to our precinct at Labangon Elementary School at 8am. It's a walking distance from home. Many voters were there already. Bunso was assigned yo a differ room while my eldest daughter and I were at the same room. I asked the watcher if my daughter can join me to assist. One senior citizen is allowed one companion. I can say that today's election is orderly in our precinct. There were many volunteers who assisted us yo find our assigned…
It has been a fruitful busy day for me. We had lunch at Dine Brunch +Bar at Streetscape. The food we ordered were all delicious. I had my tenderloin steak with garlic rice and eggs. We also had fried mushrooms, Beef Ragu with Cannelloni, Spinach pasta, breaded porkchop and chicken wings. For dessert we had ube pancake topped with ube halaya. It was a great dining experience. Thanks to my loving daughters we were able to celebrate this special day. In the afternoon, I went to…
Mother's Day Happy Mother's Day to all mothers , surrogate moms or dads acting as mothers too! It's time to celebrate our lives nurturing our own children or adoptive children. Today my children and I will go out for lunch to celebrate this special day. Yesterday we started celebrating since it was also the birthday of my son-in-law. We went to IL Corso and walked along the bay. It was our first time to went there arriving by mid afternoon and there were many people by the…
I was so amazed looking at the sky this afternoon. We have blue clear skies and do you see the crescent moon far away? It's quite early for the moon to be visible but it's already up in the sky. Nature is so amazing. It's still sunny and very humid here at home. I 'm sitting outside to watch our gate because bunso and her partner went out to buy some gallons of water and did not close the gate so that they can get inside easily. We will be eating dinner out to celebrate my…
Calliopsis I am grateful to Father God for giving me another day of hope, another day to enjoy His blessings and another day to praise Him. Waking up today is a big blessing in this life. We have a very sunny and humid day. I was awakened with my neck full of sweat. My youngest daughter had already loaded our laundry and I ate breakfast of toasted bread with butter and cheese. I also had my turmeric tea with a little decaf coffee added. Kumusta na po kayo mga kaingay?…
Lunch is ready Nakapagluto na po ako ng tanghalian. Kain na po tayo. May ginisang string beans with ground pork at fried longganisa hamonada. Naghihintayna lng po ako sa aking mga kasama sa bahay kasi complete po kami ngayon. Puro sila busy sa trabaho. Let's enjoy this simple meal mga kaingay. Be blessed po. #FoodTrip #Pilipinas
TGIF Good morning dear Noisers. It's a sunny Friday. I woke up early but went out of the room late already. I just felt lazy going out and wanted to stay longer in bed. My eldest daughter was already eating her breakfast when I went out. She did not go to office coz she's not feeling well. She had toasted some pizza so I also had pizza for breakfast. I made some hot tea too. Come let's eat. I asked her what she wanted to eat for lunch but she had no cravings. I told her that…
Cravings satisfied I was craving to eat linagang baka so I went to the market early today. The only available beef bones was the ribs so I got about 3/4 kilo and also bought some vegies for my nilaga. I boiled the beef ribs to soften and finally after 2 hours of slow cooking, my nilaga was done. I tasted a bowl of soup with meat to satisfy my cravings. Hmmm, so yummy!I also served the rest of the soup for lunch. Everyone was happy. I also had biko for dessert. Since Thursday…
Birthday celebration. Sabay po nag birthday ang dalawang cousins in my hubby's side of the family. Naimbitahan po ako at doon kami kumain ng hapunan sa family chapel. It's a very simple celebration but I'm glad to bond with the family kasi bihira na lng po ako makabisita sa lugar nila. Dati po kasi before pandemic , madali lng po ako makapunta, mag walk po ako mga 20 minutes papunta sa kanilang area. Pagdating ng pandemic, ayaw ng mga anak ko na maglalakad po ako para iwas…
Sunny day This is how bright the sun is today. I am just glad that there's some wind blowing to dry up our sweat. It's better to stay under the shade and if you need to go out, please bring some water and umbrella to protect you from the heat of the sun and keep hydrated. For me, I am washing my bed sheets and other soiled clothes from yesterday. It's not much because I also did my laundry yesterday. Just making use of the very sunny weather to dry our laundry. May you have…
Breakfast time May dala po na 2 boxes of pizza sila bunso and partner galing sa party nila with friends last night. Wow, it's very timely for breakfast. Paglabas ko ng kwarto nasalubong ko agad si bunso at nagsabi na maraming food nasa ref at may pizza din. I reheated 3 slices of pizza and gave 1 slice to my son-in-law . Solved na ang almusal ngayon. Gusto ko sana pumunta ng market to buy some beef bones for soup but I'll postpone it maybe tomorrow because we have lots of…
Maraming salamat po sa nagbigay nitong mga cutie na mga gamit like shampoos, conditioner, lotion at body wash. These were given by my sis-in-law. These are very useful whenever we travel for a short period of time. We don't have to bring our supplies in big containers. It's very convenient. By the way, kaninang umaga ko pa ito na try ipost but hindi po siya na post noong hinahanap ko. Kaya repost ko na lng po. Good evening pala sa inyong lahat mga kaingay. Oras na po para…
Lunch Good afternoon dear friends. Ito po ang naluto ko for lunch, fried chicken with gravy. Ginamit ko na ang marinated chicken thigh na ginawa ko kahapon. Gumawa rin alo ng gravy to add more flavor. Tapos na po ba kayo kumain ng tanghalian? Kanina pa kami tapos kumain. Pinakain ko na rin ang aming doggie. Tinapos ko rin ang mga labahin na mga puti bago ako nagpahinga. Inaantok yata ako kaya ipipikit ko muna yung mga mata ko. Have a good day. #Pilipinas
Good afternoon mga kaingay. Ngayon lng ako nakasilip ulit dito. Super busy day with housework. Na arrange ko na ang aming meat supply. After lunch, bumalik ulit si compadre at may dala naman na mga processed meat like hotdogs, longanisa, hungarian sausage at bacon. Pinagkasya ko na po lahat sa maliit namin na freezer. Ito na po ang aming freezer ngayon. Maraming salamat Lord sa biyaya na natatanggap. Maaga po ako magluluto ng hapunan ngayon. May nag request kung pwede kakain…
05022022 It's the second day of May and first day of work for the month. Mag ingat po lahat ng papasok sa trabaho today. Thank you Lord for waking me up healthy and strong. I am grateful for the early morning blessings. While I was still in bed, my doggie Tenshie was barking continuously so I checked who is in the gate. My compadre was very early delivering our meat supply. Last Friday, I gave my son-in-law a list of our meat needs . They visited my compadre and comadre…
Family bonding Today is a family bonding day. We attended a holy mass this morning and then ate our lunch at TimHoWan, HongKong's most famous Michelin Star Dimsum. I am grateful for bunso for the treat. Food tasted really good. We then went window shopping at SM Seaside. We had also bonding with relatives during our dinner celebration on our auntie's 88th birthday. It's been quite sometime that we have not visited our relatives and also my mom-in-law. I was glad we spent…
05012022 A blessed Sunday my dear friends here at Noise. It's a beautiful sunny day, the first of May. I am having my sunbathing while preparing my rice for cooking. I ran out of red rice so I am using the white rice (ayuda from my daughter's office). It's been here with us for months already because I had to finish first the 1sack of red rice. I noticed some insects crawling so I had to pick them before cooking the rice. I'm hitting two birds with one stone because I am…
Dolomite Beach at Manila Bay I recently saw a video posted by AlvinTV showing how Manila Bay looks at the present. It's an amazing transformation from the old Manila Bay which was full of trash and very polluted. The beach is now clean and there were some crabs seen in the video. I hope that soon when this area will be opened to the public, it will be maintained and still remain clean for the others to use and enjoy. This beach has been bombarded with a lot of negative…
