pale adobo, earthy whiff

Brunch was pale adobo, itlog na maalat, and fried rice. I say it's "pale" adobo obviously. Too much vinegar, short on the soy sauce. This was cooked in a rush. The garlic was a little raw pa. My guess is that it was intended to be like this, no mistakes really. The pork belly was cut so thinly I'm almost sure this is how they wanted it - pale and all.
Typically, I take my tea with powdered milk and sweetener. But tonight called for an earthy-taste-something so I did away with the rest of the stuff. Funny that someone turned up their nose when they got a whiff of this. I didn't mind though, I just held my breath whenever I took a sip.

Gold ring size 6 for ref

Image
A “pawnable” 0.69g 18k Saudi yellow gold ring (photo sent by the Shopee seller). My ring size is 6... in case I forget. Another buyer left a review that when they took it to Cebuana, they received an appraised value of P1,800 or ~50% of the retail price. Gold 18k market value is ~P3,400 per gram as of today (Sept. 11,2024). But for serious assets = gold bars are preferred over jewelry.  Actual ring I received ✨ Pretty small hearts design and stamped Au750 / 6. The diamond cuts make it sparkle. It looks very nice when worn.

  Chicken Nuggets (Purefoods Chicken Breast Nuggets) Yum with BBQ sause. Sliced mango yung nasa taas, masarap din, matamis. Homemade Baked Macaroni Ordered from a neighbor for noche buena. It has beef, mushrooms and bechamel sauce. Still yum. Second year in a row na since  2022 noche buena macaroni . Pork tocino and scrambled egg (Pampanga's Best Original Tocino) with suka, syempre. Dry yung eggs huhu. Sinangag sana yung rice pero bagong saing kasi. Dapat sa fried rice yung day-old na maalsa para buhaghag. Speaking of... tagalog ako pero yung term na "maalsa" sa bigas, recently ko lang naintindihan 😁
