He was 89 and we all love gardening. We ate breakfast at home though then, I would go to the garden to keep me busy and he would help out sort of making him active. When we are hungry, it was easy to put on clothes and go than prepare something at home; sort of finding a lost appetite!
He would go to the finest restaurants in the area and he gives huge tip to the server.
He was a big fan of Subway and he loves their soup. He loves to eat and when we go to the buffet in the casino hotel in the area, we would eat first and play the slots afterwards.
His favorite is Hardrock and the Isle of Capri because every time he play a slot, he would win. One time, we went to Hardrock on a Wednesday which they offer 50% on the buffet from $25/dinner. When we pay, our ticket has $82 bills for three because the promo was good up to 6pm. It was past 6pm at that time and I cancel it and told him we would go to another casino.
He told the cashier he would pay anyway because he is rich and he has money. My husband rolled out laughing! I had no appetite to eat knowing it was my fault to came in late! He was enjoying his food! Anyway, when we go out and he put $50 on the machine, he hit the jackpot and won $700. The best thing was, he quit playing right after winning a game. Did you know that they don't like that? That is why in most places, if you won a lot, they would offer you big time deal such as FREE rooms for the night so; they could get back their money if you keep on playing. They will not force you though! In fact, their advice is "KNOW WHEN TO QUIT". My father-in-law quit when he is winning!
I am not sure what to call this. It is made of pearl, young coconut, milk, and mango.
These are "fresh lumpia" or spring roll with vegies inside, "puto"or rice cake with cheese, and "maja blanca" or coconut pudding.
Fried spring roll with gravy. I can't remember the taste now LOL. It must be delicious
Some Chinese restaurant here in the US have this "nilusak na saging" which is made from banana with shred of coconut .
This is my entry for Yummy Sunday. Thanks for the visit everyone and for stopping by last week. I will see you in your blogs. 
When you are dining out, as much as possible do not order a soda. Just order something different such as the tropical orange freeze or berry fruit juice which are definitely healthy drinks.
If you happen to visit the Philippines and been traveling down Northern Mindanao, check out Seablings Restaurant located few minutes away from Cagayan de Oro City.
If you love seafoods and been dreaming of "Kinilaw", "Sinuglaw" and grilled pork. ah, check it out will you? Have some for me too.
You will asked for more so; you better order the bowl than the cup. It really doesn't make the difference. The crunchiness and saltiness of the bacon adds the flavor of the soup. The cheese makes it so creamy and tasty. The soup? ahhh...so good and you will be filled with satisfaction.
I am still contemplating where to go LOL. I might go to Chilis, Tony Roma's, Ruby Tuesdays or Joe's Crab Shack? I really don't know. I will see you later folks. Thanks for stopping by.
This is the area and that green building is the Panera Bread.
Now this is truly delicious but, since it is very creamy, Mc Cafe Caramel Frappe which is so good. If you hate calories, this is not for you since it contains 470 and the sugar is 67. It taste so good!
If you have so many strawberries, make a Strawberry Smoothie. With strawberries, blend it with milk, yogurt, sugar, vanilla and ice. That is so yummy.
This is tropical Orange Freeze at Red Lobster. It's not really my favorite because I can taste the coconut than the orange, LOL!
Here's an Orange Smoothie blended with milk, yogurt, sugar, vanilla and ice. Try any fruits you have at home and make a smoothie.
If you are 55 years and older, would you like to live in a retirement home? You have work hard all your life and now your retirement is approaching. This is a new chapter in your life that you should thoroughly enjoy. A little planning will make your golden years the best years. Most people who are retiring will not stay in their present home because it is really just too big to maintain.If you want to downsize to a small apartment, that can be an option. But, you might not always be with the people in your same age group. If you choose to live in an over 55 community, there are many advantages to this option. In many retirement communities, you will have single-family home and more like a small cottage. Most are constructed with a garage and one floor living for your convenience. There may be a small maintenance fee to take care of the common areas. But, it will be much less cost than maintaining a large home.
If you are looking for a retirement community in Ohio, just click the link given here. Most retirement community has a beautiful pool and clubhouse. Many activities are planned for everyone in the community such as Pot luck dinner, day trips, card games and bingo to name a few. You will be able to enjoy these activities with people at same age as you are. While planning your retirement, be sure to research the different 55+ community in your local area. They are a great place to live as you will remain independent and active with people of your generation.
The picture below is a berry aqua fresca, so refreshing!
Then, the last one is bella lemonata still from Olive Garden. The tastes are different but, I just realized now that the pictures looks similar.
If you happen to dine in at this Italian Restaurant, don't order a soda! Try these drinks!The volcanic soil of Hawaii is perfect for plants and some animals. The state flower of Hawaii is the hibiscus. It grows to as much as 8 feet with colorful petals and used as medicinal plants. This plant thrives in either wet or dry climates so it really suited for the tropical weather in Hawaii. The Wikiwili Tree which is also native to Hawaii has a sturdy wood used in making of surf boards, canoes and even some fishing boats. The tree grows as tall as 35 feet. Amazing flora and fauna can be found in this island. Are you a nature lover? Hawaii might be your new home so; check out the Houses for Sale in Hawaii and I am sure you will stay this island for good.Did you know that Hawaii has this Ilima Plant which was thought to have healing powers by the early settlers of Hawaii? They believed that it could cure conditions such as asthma. The plant can reach a height of 5 feet and is thriving best on rocky shorelines and beaches. Hawaii is also abundant of monk seals but, in the northwest area. They thrive on the coral reef sea and feed on shrimps, lobsters and small fish. These seals generally swim and eat alone or in small groups.
If you travel to Hawaii, explore the wonders of the natural beauty of this place. You better prepare to hire someone who is knowledgeable of Hawaii because they can provide you the best properties which I am sure you will love to own.
If you come early before 9:30 AM, shoppers can eat this food for FREE. The store opens at 10AM but, you can walk through the store and see the display earlier than that. Sometimes, they offer FREE kids meal too. IKEA is a Swedish store and their business clicks to the American customers.
I really thought that it's sour but, after dipping a big slice of green mango to a spicy "uyap" (drooling), OhEmGeeee...so yummy, LOL!
Joe's Crab Shack is one of my favorite restaurants in the area. It is actually beside High Tide Harry's, another favorite place but, we decided to dine in at Joe's that night.
When we came in, it's amazing to tell you guys, they are open up to midnight. There's few people who come and go in pairs and in groups. It was a nice evening and I was starving so I ordered a Stuffed Mushroom and hubby ordered shrimp and fish. Mine was only less than $8 and hubby's food costs $11, which was not bad considering it's dinner time.
I ordered an appetizer thinking I can order an entree' in few minutes. My eyes is truly bigger than my stomach because after eating halfway, I was full. I was eyeing on the Seafood sampler where it has a calamari and shrimps on it.
I gave only $5 tip for a $23 bill. Such affordable for a dinner really! Well, a server should get 20% tip from the diners because their pay is less than $5/hour mostly. I am not sure how much in this restaurant though but, that's what I know in some establishments here.
We enjoyed our food and we ate most of it and the server was alright. This place is crowded when there's an NFL game or any sports game. If you crave for seafood, crabs in any kind, this place has the best of it. Well, the price differ in every state. If you live in Mississippi, you will enjoy bigger and cheaper king crabs or dungeness crab.
Here's the set-up of their shop where you can buy Joe's souvenir products with that hungry shark watching on you.
Here's the look inside the restaurant. I refrain from taking pictures where people are dining, it's rude, right? Anyway, it's blurry because I am only using a blackberry phone camera.
That's my little rendezvous last night. Craving for food is one thing that I can't just ignore.
