If there’s one more thing I missed in the Philippines that is eating sweet delicacy or native food like Kalamay (rice cakes). The day I arrived in my hometown we went to town to buy rice cakes, I took chances to taste all of them. My favorite though is the kalamay made on glutinous rice with arnibal on the top.
Some of them are made from cassava flour and corn flour, I am not able to eat all the food I bought because I am too full. The next day when I look at them in our fridge they are already stale.

I just arrived the other day from almost one month vacation in the Philippines if there’s one thing I enjoyed upon my stay, that is able to hold and touch a pet again. It was been a long time since I am able to do it, when I first arrived our family dog was not happy to see me. He keeps barking and growling at me, probably because I am a new face to him but within few days he is already used seeing me but still we are not too closed that I am still scared to touch him alone.
One day my sister test our other bike and I asked her if she can took Jihoo for a ride as they told me already that Jihoo loves riding in that yellow bike with father. So she did, on their next trip my sister asked me if I want to go with them (Jihoo) I willingly say yes but it turns out Jihoo doesn’t like my presence or someone riding on his bike because the moment I sit in the bike he growls and went down from the bike and when I went down he went up to the bike again, such a baby!

The other day my mother asked my cousin in law to cooked our young rooster tied in our backyard so while we are in town he cooks it.
We had an ample amount of food so we gave some to our neighbors and of course to the one who cooked the chicken. I missed eating chicken cooked in coconut milk this is one of my favorite.

When I first arrived home my sister’s dog Jihoo keeps barking at me, I am not able to come near him because he seems very angry with me and I am also afraid to be bitten and get rubbish.
After few days Jihoo became tame, I think he get used of my presence though there are time that he growl at me so what I did I am the one who walked him in the morning or night so he can pee or poop. I am also the one who feed him together with the cats.

This is what I enjoyed when buying food in convenient store when there is sale or freebies added to the item. It is cheaper eh, I got free hot chocolate when I bought cookie in GS25, as they don’t have the dumplings that I need to buy I went to Family Mart.
While on the way I remember I have to buy chicken as well, I have no plans to buy meal but when I saw this meal I craved for it because this my favorite set of instant meal, I got free lemonade and noodles.
Buying meals with freebies is extra savings because you don’t need to buy more just to feed your hunger. You can save that amount for the next time you felt hungry again.

We stopped walking around downtown for one week and we started walking again we are both surprised to see the Chinese Restaurant gone and a KFC to be opened soon beside the Starbucks Coffee. Dunno where’s the Chinese restaurant went.
Probably in one more week KFC will be opened for business already. I hope soon there’s Burger King or Vips soon in Icheon.

We had a different treat for tonight my husband is craving for street food so I went out to buy street food, instead of going to the old place I went to a different food shop and buy this twigim below.
After buying street food I went to Baskin Robbins and buy ice cream.
Thinking my husband might not like the street food I have bought another set of twigims on the old shop. The daughter of the owner was there so it was easy for me to say what do I want because she can speak a little English.

The other night when I went to Family Mart I happened passed by at the garbage area and saw this cat below looking for food. I stopped and took photos of him, unlike most cat I saw in the street digging for food this cat was not afraid of me. He just let me take photos of him and continue what is he doing.
This cat is quite healthy and big, it seems he is properly feed but he still look for food.

Among the many important things that one must to look into is the pet health because it says something about the overall condition of the pet. To fully enjoy your pets at home, it is important to take good care of them by letting them eat the right food and giving them enough exercise. When you think that your pet’s health is failing, you should immediately see the veterinarian so that proper care will be given. Losing our pet is like losing an important member of the family. We should give them extra care before it is too late.
