I am taking a tea break at work at this moment while listening to Frederic Chopin's 21 Nocturnes. 

Yesterday, I was so excited to go to work in my online store when I felt dizzy by early afternoon. My son suggested that I should take a nap. 

But I had to get out of bed when the mister came home. I needed to go to the grocery, or else we wouldn't have anything to eat at dinner. 

I told the mister of what happened to me earlier that day on our way out, but I assured him that the dizziness is manageable.

When we started driving to the groceries, he asked me if it's alright to drop by at the nearest thrift store. He wanted to see if he could find a particular remote control for a vintage car radio. 

Guess what?

My dizziness magically went away. 

Hehehehe.

By the way, the "wilderness" was so generous to me last night. 

There is more not shown in the photograph.

This is an Oneida and Golden Damask Rose pattern from 1987, which was discontinued in 1997.

They look so fancy, don't they?

My little sister, who's here for the weekend, is still raving about the K-pop group BTS late into the night.

I couldn't keep up and couldn't even identify their names, but I kept listening to her stories about them.

Hi, Sabado!

My sister is here for her birthday weekend. That's her hand in the photo. 

I prepared puff pastries filled with scrambled eggs and sausages this morning. Jay made our café latte.

We are going to paint the town red today. We will be spending money. 

Actually, we are hitting all of the thrift stores in town.

Hopefully, we will be able to find good stuff in the wild today. 

I baked 8 puff pastries and we inhaled all of them. We need the sustenance to whip the day up!

P.S. I couldn't find my pastry brush and couldn't find any substitute to brush the egg wash with on top, and that was why my pastries looked pale.
