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.

Bought their "Everyday Bowl" just to try since I was craving fried rice. Usually, I get the "classic plate" with 2 entrees + 1 side of mixed veggies.

Golden Powerchair Charging/Chargers

Image
Always have a spare charger for your electric wheelchair just in case... like today. When we plugged in my powerchair, the light on the charger turned green when it should've turned red (for reference, green light = fully charged VS. red light = charging). The actual light has been dim and difficult to see for a while now. I started using this generic charger in January 2021 when the original charger stopped working. Anyway, we troubleshoot... Took the spare charger out, plugged it in and RED light! Yay *insert tears of joy* - oh there's an emoji pala  😂. The light is nice and bright. So if the light becomes dim, it is a sign that the charger needs to be replaced soon. Now that I think about it, I noticed that sign with the original charger too. Since the spare is now the primary, I will get a new spare charger (again).  the original charger the generic charger replacement
