ang bisnes, bow!

i had a major boo boo with the bibingka i intended on making for tselogs this morning, (too much flour and not enough eggs...i seriously lost count. ang terrible ko sa math! hanggang sa pagbebake, nadadala!) so no bibingka today. tomorrow, i deliver (marunong na akong magbilang!).

anyway, michelle and i were at the restaurant earlier today to deliver the pies that i baked last night. around lunch time, this guy from the car shop next door stopped by to get his meal. he went to the fridge, got himself a coke, paid for his food and left. all this while chit-chatting with chel and all of us, he's a regular customer. after the guy left, i asked chel, 'you charged him for the soda, right?'. chel replied, 'what soda?' long story short, this guy has a history of getting a soda and never paying for it. i thought to myself, will stealing that one soda add any value to his life? will it make him rich? parang, ano yun? hindi naman sya naghihirap. sya nga may trabaho, ako wala e. although libre naman ang food ko sa tselogs...but that's not the point. the point is, bakeeeeeeet? and to think he goes there all the time? he's always treated well and he seems to be friendly. you really can't tell what makes people tick.

the restaurant has an interesting array of customers. meron naman dating customer, pati toilet paper sa ladies room, kinuha. whenever this family comes into the restaurant, on guard na kaming lahat dahil for sure, may item na magdidisappear. nakakalungkot. buti nalang they moved far away na. they're probably terrorizing another local restaurant and taking their toilet paper! pero mas marami namang customers ang matitino. chel has told me about so many interesting people she's met at the restaurant. minsan tuloy, i wish i was a people person para marami akong nakakausap...pero i don't like asking questions and really not comfortable being asked too many questions by a stranger so parang di ako intresado makipagusap. hindi lang talaga ako matanong. tipong, i'd rather read than ask.

halata bang wala ako maisulat. hindi ako masyado naghahanap ng trabaho. masaya pa ako sa bahay and nakakasideline naman ako sa pagbebake ko. i thinking more and more about opening my own bakery SOMEDAY. basta, the Lord will give me the wisdom and the resources if this is really what he wants me to do. i already have a name for the bakery...

i really need to start going to bed early so i can wake up early. this baking thing does not go well when michelle is up and asking me questions while i bake. yes, nagkamali ako ng bilang sa ingredients ng bibingka kasi i answered my daughter's question. hindi ko na maalala ang tanong pero i can't really just ignore my daughter while i bake. so ayun, palpak. she still thinks i'm the greatest mom in the world kahit na hindi ako perfect...at the end of the day, that's all that matters. =)
