Convenience Stores
We are a fan of convenience stores. Whenever we go out, I make it a point for us to stop at a 7-11 store near our place because I conveniently remember we need bread (we only eat Gardenia bread and our neighborhood is too simple to even have them stocked at stores, the bread supplied by the nearest bakery 45 minutes away gets moldy after 24 hours – PROMISE!). Our bread supply per week is around 100 bucks because the princess wants the soft pandesal every now and then (and french toast too!). I also pick up coffee in cans and some chips, again, not sold within our neighborhood. I can easily spend 500 bucks there. They recently hired another security guard and added security cameras because there have reported burglaries on the stores along that road and they are the only ones left not burglarized (yet). So whenever we go there past midnight, it is only the husband who goes in – we need to put the safety of our kids first.
I am Maurice and I find pleasure in gastronomical delights that are a feast in the eyes and taste like heaven in the mouth. Join me as I write about what I eat, want to eat and try to cook. I am on a perpetual non-effective diet all the time.
