Sunday Afternoon Out

After mass and lunch, Michelle wanted to watch Crazy Stupid Love. I decided to skip it. It’s not exactly a movie that takes advantage of the big screen so I was planning to watch it at home. Nor would Jeanne appreciate watching it whether on the big screen or at home. And she would have had to pay full rate. But Michelle and Gretchen went ahead. It later turned out the movie was no longer showing in MegaMall or Galleria and they ended up watching Johnny English.

As for my dad, Jeanne and I, it was the Podium. First, we went to the bookstore where my dad looked for a C programming book. But there was none available so he just got a newspaper and a Winnie the Pooh book for Jeanne. We then headed to Cinnabon for coffee and cinnamon rolls. We drank and ate while reading: my dad a newspaper, Jeanne and I the Pooh book. Then, of course, a requisite visit to the toy store. Always a good stop. She actually didn’t want to leave until I asked her if she wanted to go to the grocery at which point she put back the ball she was playing with and let me carry her.

As there is no grocery at the Podium, we drove over to Hypermart. I got ingredients for different kinds of sinigang (prawn, salmon belly, pork, veggies), and orange juice. Jeanne was well-behaved and sat on the cart all throughout so we were done quickly. We then headed home. Great bonding time for 3 generations.
