Grand's buffet

SUNDAY...June 27


We woke up late and did not go to mass.... but we did go and visit my dad at the cemetary. After that, we hung around Grand Hotel's lobby for about an hour, waiting for the AOI Sunday Brunch to open. (I thought the brunch opened at 1000, after all it is called BRUNCH!, but it opened at 1100). The kids waited patiently, but were getting a bit agitated of the hour wait!





SHRIMP that is worth the wait...


The only thing I like at Grand's Sunday Brunch at the AOI restaurant is the japanese baby shrimp! It is sweet and delicious as sashimi..... yumm!








FARM TIME...


I think by now my regular readers will figure out my Sunday schedule, church, breakfast or brunch then farm!








Rice Crackers/sembe on steroids! The larger kakidane are from a spicier mix of rice crackers!

Friday's events

Friday was a busy day for me, shopping, shopping and more shopping! However, it is not the type of shopping every girl dreams off! I was not shopping for diamond rings or clothes! I was shopping for cake mix, baking supplies, and baking pans! Anyway, every girl has to eat, so my husband, my daughter and I went to Ubu Restaurant, Garapan, across Memorial Park.




It is Lunch Buffet every Friday = $6.50 which also includes iced tea! This is a good place to eat, especially if you are hungry and on a budget! Kids 5-10 eat @ 1/2 price! If you do go there, make sure you mention that you saw this add on the website! As they allowed me to take photos of the food.

Friday's events

I have not posted any more lunch photos as my hubby and I have been going out to the same places, lunch at CoCo's, Moby Dick, etc. Anyway, here is where we went for lunch on Thursday, Hafa Adai Hotel, Hana Restaurant.
Bento = $7 (Drinks not included!)


@ work...
I went to Laolao Bay to respond to an incident and this is the ugly site I saw at Laolao, trash/garbage all across the shoreline....... looks like the trash was washed up from the sea.
