Honolulu Cafe
Today, my Avanza is scheduled for its rustproofing, interior detailing and ceramic gloss. Unfortunately, the stocks needed for the ceramic gloss is not yet available that I will have to schedule it separately. Thus, it would only be the car's rustproofing.
We were already parking at Ziebart since I'll be paying for the service already so that Edgar, the driver, will just have to pick-up the car later, when I received the call. Talked inside my HR-V. There were a lot of stories to share that I suspect I would not be able to attend the noon Mass.

After paying, I went to The Landmark supermarket for my grocery. Even if doing the grocery is a breeze, I was right that I would not be able to make it for the noon Mass. YouTube already notified me that the rosary has started (the Sto. Niño de Paz Greenbelt Chapel airs their Mass live online).
This means, I would have my lunch early. I do believe that I have tried most of the restaurants at Glorietta. Thus, I decided to try the ones at Greenbelt.
My feet brought me to Honolulu Cafe. Asked which menu item they would recommend. They said, the Roasted Pork Belly Rice (PhP288.00). I don't feel like trying their drinks as I think it would be sweet. (Free) warm water for me. LOL

It is OK. Not really that exciting. I think I prefer the food at Mamak Kopitiam at Glorietta.
Before going to my usual haunt, Glorietta, strolled around Greenbelt, looking for the next restaurant I would be doing my taste-test.
At The Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf, I ordered their signature drink to complete my stamp card. They stamped the "Any drink" slot. When I reminded them that it is supposed to be for the signature drink, they stamped that, too! Now, that's a double stamp on a non-double stamp day for me! LOL
It is also here where I started this blog.
Last night, I was browsing the Rado Philippines website. I was thinking of buying a watch--a watch that does not need to be charged or linked to a mobile phone. Many, many years ago, I entered their store at Glorietta because a watch caught my eye. Left as soon as I learned the price. LOL.
But this time, I am determined to own one. Maybe because of recent events, a bit of pampering on my side won't be bad. 😆
Left the store with an automatic watch, a Rado Centrix Diamonds in their 2025 collection. It has 12 diamonds on its face.

When setting the date/ time, set it first at six o’clock (or 6:30). Set the date a day before. Then set to the correct time (and date). Initial winding is 15 to 20. Since it is automatic, it winds with your movement. But if you have not used it for a long time, succeeding is 15 times. Do not over-wind. Also, do not change the date between 8 PM to 2AM.
The Mass presider is Fr. Rolando, Bishop of Papua New Guinea. We are celebrating the Vigil of the Solemnity of the Most Holy Body and Blood of Christ, also known as the Corpus Christi.
The Eucharist is the true presence of Jesus. Not a symbol. Not a representation.
When you receive the Eucharist, you are receiving Jesus. Jesus is with us until the end of time, especially in the Eucharist.
There's no act that pleases God the Father so much than what Jesus did on the cross.
The greatest act of worship is the Eucharist, the sacrifice. 1 Corinthians 11:26: This means that EVERY TIME you eat this bread and drink from this cup you proclaim the Lord's death until he comes.
What our Protestant brothers miss is the Eucharist, the sacrifice of Jesus being offered to God. What they have is the Word; but, not the sacrifice.
After the Mass, I went to Mary, Mother of Hope Chapel at The Landmark, a Jubilee Church, hoping to gain a plenary indulgence and I offer it for my Uncle Celso, my Tatay's brother.
Then to Anson's at The Landmark, too, to buy a small rice cooker as our existing one is acting up; Japan's Home Centre to buy disposable plastic gloves; BPI to withdraw. Left all my bag and purchases in the car with Edgar. I wanted to buy the new sugar-free of Chrisha's Kitchen to taste it, but it is already sold out. I really liked their sugar delight Dubai Pistachio Chocolate Cake. Their other sugar delight, Biscoff Crunch Cake, looks sweet. So I bought a small one so I can taste it at home. Finally, at Mos Burger for food-to-go.
