Americano

We didn't realize that our milk expired, and that's why Jay wasn't able to make our morning cafe latte. 

He made a cafe Americano instead. 

I have seen this in Korean dramas—it's a constant coffee choice of Koreans.

And guess what, I just realized that it's my first time having it.


I like it. Definitely adding this to my choices of Java.

1980s Hairclips

I was so surprised when I sold a newly listed unopened 1980s barrette. 

When I listed it in my online shops, I immediately got inquiries about it.

Today, it sold for $25 with 4 people having it on their shopping cart already.  A customer from Louisiana beat them all to it.


Some online sellers price this item as high as $80. 

Surmayosep!

 I was cleaning my drawers I was cleaning my drawers in my dresser and found an old sterling silver bracelet. I think I bought the bracelet on sale at the nearby Boscov's (a department store) when it newly opened in our town in 2002.

Me: 'doy, look! I'm wearing my old ankle bracelet. 

Jason: ((( WHAT?! )))

He sounded so confused! 

Jason: Like for probation?

LOL!

I almost peed from laughing so hard. I didn't think of that. 

He thought it was the ankle bracelet, like an electronic monitoring device strapped around the ankle to track an offender's location and movement in compliance with court-mandated restrictions as an alternative to jail time or house arrest. 

Should I just use the term "anklet" instead? šŸ¤”

I heard my son talking on his phone with my daughter. They're talking about the basketball tournament last night. The Knicks won, I heard.

Both of them are rooting for the same New York team. 

By the way, they constantly have lunch dates via video call. 

It's an exclusive sibling-only kind of thing.
