Christmas Eve 2022

Noche Buena 2022... I already pre-ordered a "budget set" na good for 4 people daw (baked beef macaroni and fudgy cake) from one of our neighbors a week before. He delivered it around 6:30 pm on Dec. 24 so we heated the baked mac just before midnight... Masarap! Very pretty din ang packaging nya na merong holiday ribbons and all... di ko lang napicturan.  I did not want to prep or cook anymore para wala nang stress or bili pa ng mga ingredients. Relax and enjoy nalang. Naka-order nadin ako sa kapitbahay kong to ng baked mac dati so alam ko na oks ang gawa nya, maayos din ang packaging na ginagamit nya.   FYI, sobrang mahal na ng onions nowadays. Almost 400 pesos per kilo! 😲

Panasonic SLA Batteries Fail

Image
I used two (2) of these Panasonic sealed lead acid batteries 12v 18ah to replace the original UB ones on my Golden Literider electric wheelchair... These were not good at all. I thought by buying a brand name, I would get good quality, but no. These failed from the get-go...  Quick to drain and would not last long enough to get me outdoors so I was stuck indoors for the year and a half that it lasted until they finally died on me. The new ones I got are JSL II brand and I upgraded to 20ah and so far, the JSL II are holding up very well.

Panda Express delivery via foodpanda

My plate (clockwise): Panda Express orange chicken, mixed vegetables, kung pao chicken, black pepper steak Panda Express along Dona Soledad Avenue in Paranaque City opened early this year 2022... I think or 2021 pa ? Anyway, I had visitors over last August so I bought a bunch of ulam there via foodpanda delivery. I like that they have veggies. Masarap lahat. Orange chicken is sweet — winner with the kids. Mixed vegetables with lots of broccoli are fresh and  hindi laspag  — winner with the adults. Kung pao chicken is hot/spicy. Black pepper steak is peppery — most of the beef slices were super tender, but merong konti na malitid . I also bought Mongolian pork that didn't make it into my plate... but I did get leftovers of it the next day. Dessert was excellent — double cheesecake with half Nutella and nuts, half strawberry jam; home-made by my super cousin. Yum!
