Bonding Over Pizza


Just this afternoon, my Ate Gina asked if I could go with her to the mall. I immediately said yes, since I don't have anything important to do.

After checking out almost all the racks at the depatment store and bought some stuffs, my sister and I headed to Greenwich to have some pizza.  She ordered Greenwich Special Thin Crust Pizza for us. 


I do always look forward on moments like this. Doing things that we both love, shopping and eating! *smiles*

Snackwich

My sister-in-law brought this home especially for me! So sweet! *big grin* Well, that's one of the things I love being the bunso (youngest). *wink*


This is the first time that I have tasted this sandwich from Mister Donut.  Snackwich as it is called, is the counterpart of Dunkin Donuts' Bunwich. 

Just like the typical sandwiches, this one has ham slices, a slice of tomatoe and cucumber, cheese and mayonaise.

Minindal

Minindal as I remember, is how my late grandmother call our merienda. Just this afternoon this is what I had for my minindal...

I love the coco jam from Pan de Manila... it's not too sweet and not too oily, just right... *yummy*
...and not to forget my cup of coffee! A perfect minindal! *big smile*
