weekend gourmet market...
seller offered me a sample of their product...
me: 'could you slice it smaller, please? that's too big...'
seller: 'that's not big, ma'am...'
me: 'ay, hehe... yeah... i just mean it's too big for me... i'm full...'
seller: 'this won't stuff you, ma'am...'
me: 'even then... actually your sampler's ten times bigger than the samplers of the other vendors...'
seller: 'so you could taste the filling, ma'am...'
me: 'i can taste it even if it's small...'
seller: 'you have to try it this size so you would know it's really delicious...'
wow... that's one confident seller... : )
listen to your gut
supposed to relay a message to my sister-in-law... i was already about to call her but decided at the last minute to just tell her in person as i was about to go home anyway. (i live on the third floor of their house.)
so i knock on their door and guess what, they have leche flan! : D
my love and my joy, hahaha... <3 <3 <3
she offered me a practically untouched llanera and told me to finish it off. (yes, i can finish a llanera in one sitting.)
me: 'you should eat this yourself... i already had some yesterday... it's good...'
sister-in-law: 'actually i don't know where it's from...'
me: 'it's from <province>... try it...'
sister-in-law: 'we're avoiding that... too much calories...'
me: 'you sure?'
sister-in-law: 'sure... it's all yours...'
wow, thank youuuuuuuuuu... : D
so finish it off i did!
i'm not counting calories... i'm savoring sweets... : )

post-purchase
i've been bringing my store-bought bottled juices to my parents' house but they never really drink it.
then my mom mentioned that fresh juices would be better for my dad.
so i got them a manual juicer. (they already have a blender. they don't use it though.)
for months, the juicer was just in their dining area unused.
so now i got them an electric juicer.
me to mom: 'i'm going to get back the manual juicer, you never use it anyway. this one (referring to the electric juicer), if you don't like it, just let me know and i'll take it, too...'
my dad butts in: 'you know, you shouldn't expect me to operate those things... just prepare the juice and i'll drink it...'
ooops... ahahaha... complete the package -> product plus service... ;")

exposed
friend shocked to learn who wrote this certain message i posted in facebook...
friend: 'i never would have thought that was her!'
me: 'precisely! that's why i posted the message itself (i did black out names)... i did not describe... i did not paraphrase... i let her own words speak for herself... there's actually more of that mentality in the rest of the message... different topics that's the underlying mindset...'
friend: 'i couldn't imagine...'
me: 'yeah... if i just told you you never would have believed me... so i showed...'
at some point, things do come to light...

blind
sister telling our niece it's okay to have suitors just don't have a boyfriend yet...
me: 'it's okay to have a boyfriend... just make sure you'll be responsible enough to handle it...'
niece: 'i don't like ugly...'
me: 'i didn't say go for ugly... i'm not saying go for handsome either... as long as he won't scare you when you wake up next to him that's fine... and don't say someone's ugly... for all you know you just might fall for the guy...'
people have different tastes... and those tastes could change through time...
beauty eventually fell for beast...
when it comes to love, it's the heart that sees... <3 <3
