"Hunyo's Food Review: Lola Nena's Donuts"


"Hunyo's Food Review: Lola Nena's Donuts"

If you were able to watch the anime Cooking Master Boy, Lola Nena's Donut can be considered as "Sa Unang Kagat, Flashback agad" kind of food.

Instantly it brings back images of a 10 year old me on a hot sunday afternoon buying one of these old fashioned donuts in a bakery in the province.

Lola Nena's Donut elevates the taste of that childhood treat with better ingredients. It is soft and the powdery sugar doesn't make you feel like a hyperglycemic zombie afterwards. 

Try the normal one first as the triple cheese one, well , you need to eat that slowly otherwise you will be overwhelmed by its taste.

In Valenzuela and QC I believe this is alreadt available in Grab. The newly opened shop is in front of the Fatima Shrine.

Dear Ate/Kuya na Nagpapa-Fit To Work,


Ang Fit to work process po ay ginagawa BAGO kayo mag log in sa floor. Pinapadaan po kayo sa Clinic , ichecheck kung kumpleto na ang mga papel ninyo at kung kayo ay physical na puwedeng pumasok. Kung ang pasok niyo po ay 9pm at kayo ay dadaan pa sa prosessong ito mangyari po na agahan ninyo ang pasok ng kaunti dahil di lang po kayo ang kadalasan na pipila para dito.


Kung kayo po ay pumasok na at di na dumaan sa Clinic para dito , wag na po kayong dumaan ng 6am kapag kayo ay pauwi na dahil di na po namin kayo mabibigyan nito. Pinagkait niyo na po sa amin ang tsansa na masabing di pa kayo puwedeng pumasok o di kaya ay magpahinga pa. Sana lang po ay di kayo naghasik ng lagim sa floor na siyang makakaaapekto sa inyong buong team.


Di Umaasa na Magbabago kayo,


Doc June

Sometimes fate provides something unexpected. I recently salvaged my Horobi  ,Deaths Wail  from a Non- Performing" EDH deck and finally decided to make a deck for it. Without thinking of it I then put it in a binder right beside Gisa , Glorious Resurrector. It was then that I noticed something cool.


And these guys, well I thought that they would hit it off. 

Horobi makes sure that the creatures your opponent's control dies. Gisa makes sure that the things that die this way become exiled and at your upkeep return them , as Zombies with Decayed! You have the killer and resurrector all on one side. 


Perfect for all of those creatures with ETB that can now benefit me. The best example would be the Titans. Sun Titan or Grave Titan coming back on my side of the board after I kill with something from Horobi? Massive upswing in benefits right there.


The copy of the creatures that I would gain maybe crumbling a little bit but if they do die again....well they have probably already served their purpose. 


Time to brew.

I find it interesting that while we were in the Vaccination area , There are a lot more over protective mothers over their 15 -17 year old sons. Some of these children can't even walk properly as the moms cling to them and try to catch up to their very tall sons.  


While daughters seem to be so independent,  listening to their own music, watching videos. Most of the girls seem to easily amuse themselves. The boys seems so bored without their phones hahahah


This whole scene reminds me of my own mom. If this was our situation she would be doing the same thing. Hahaha.  I miss her.

Geralf has been getting better and better with his craft as evidenced by the Nercogenesis Ludevic himself in this card.

Necroduality is something that has gotten me excited ever since I saw it. It has the potential for abuse and this is one of them. The Necroduality + Phyrexian Altar + Grave Crawler Combo! 

So with these 3 cards on the battlefield and another zombie , you can have Infinite Gravecrawler tokens and mana!!! 


1) Sacrifice Gravecrawler to the Phyrexian Altar, get 1 mana of any color.

2) Play Gravecrawler from the Graveyard because you have another zombie in play. Get a copy of Grave crawler. 

3)  Repeat.


Evil plans are brewing once again.

I

It sat there gathering dust

Forgotten but still waiting

Full of whispered promises 

and often regretful endings.


II

Held by so many hands

Their only friend in this place

Sooner or later they leave

And it waited for them in lace


III

Borrowed and broken and passed

Still into much tender hearts

Unjaded and still beating

It is there, gathering dust , still waiting.

Due to our schedules we usually wake up late on Saturday Nights. So there are times that I have to ask if we eat dinner or sleep till breakfast. This is one of those times.


Me: "Mahal kakain na ba tayo ng dinner o matutulog pa?"


Hanie De Leon (still half asleep) :  Yes.


Me: "Kakain na ba or tulog ka pa?"


Hanie : "Yes"


Me : " kakain o matutulog pa?"


Hanie : "yes nga"


Me : "bahala ka diyan hahaha"
