How do you usually document moments?
If you ever do, then what motivates you to do it?
For me, photography is my thing. Whether it's a selfie, group shot, or catching candid moments, I love freezing memories in time.
It's amazing how a single photo can transport you back to a specific moment and relive the emotions all over again.
Like the one I'm sharing now.
Since it's Throwback Thursday, let's revisit some memories.
It was afternoon when we decided to go grocery shopping.
But since we felt hungry, we first stopped by our favorite Karinderia.
We ordered spaghetti, my hubby's favorite.
The taste of it was sweet and salty, combined perfectly in the sauce and noodles.
We just settled at the small table and filled our bellies.
After that, we decided to hit the night market next.
From stall to stall, I turned towards one with freshly made empanadas!
They were golden brown and perfect, neatly arranged in a display case.
I ordered two empanadas: one filled with pansit and the other with ham and cheese.
The crispy outer crust, plus the melted cheese, combined with the ham was just a pleasure for me.
While the pansit flavor gives me a nostalgic feeling, as I had such fond memories of this treat as a child.
We used to add a dash of vinegar before to balance the flavors of the pansit.
After I took my last bite, we continued our plan to go grocery shopping.
And since baby Aiden was leading the way, look where we suddenly took a turn into...
The liquor area. 😂
Yes, you read that right!
In front of the shelves of colorful bottles, we train our baby. HAHAHA...
He tried to scan the choices, whether we would get the apple vodka, the sweet strawberry mix, or the fancy bottle.
Actually, he pointed to the expensive one, a 20% bottle. 😆
But we just chose the bottle that we can handle, and placed it into the cart.
After the grocery store, we headed straight to the Fun Nation.
We decided to play the coin pusher.
We had TEN one-peso coins. Yes, 10 pesos.
This is our investment. 🤣
Maybe through this, we got a chance to win buckets of coins. 😆
I dropped my first coin... Push...
Nothing.
Second coin, still nothing.
Third, fourth, fifth, still no coins falling. 🥺
So I gave the machine to my hubby. It was his turn.
He inserted his first peso.
Second, third, fourth, fifth...
Nothing.
By the end, we were rewarded with tickets.
Tickets that we absolutely didn't need, that probably didn't even buy the cheapest exchange we could get.
So that's it. Ten pesos gone. Zero coins won. 🤦🏼♀️
We went home wiping our imaginary tears...
Until our next story...
Thanks for the visit! Have a lovely day. Buh-bye. 💗🌸
