Todays Foodie Tip: Batchoy Overload by Pancake House
“Batchoy Overload totally hits the spot if you're craving a bowl of comfort! Their La Paz Batchoy is packed with flavor rich, savory broth, tender pork, and just the right amount of crunch from the chicharrón. The noodles are perfectly chewy, and they don’t skimp on the toppings, which is awesome. “

P.S. As your BFF I like to keep it real….
… by sharing cheesy quotes on happiness & gratitude….
… which teach a mindset that transformed my life for the better…
… stoicism. So here’s your cheesy quote:
"When life gives you reasons to frown, turn it upside down—happiness looks better on you!"
And to put a cherry on top, I ask you to choose, my dear BFF:
I promise to be positive this week. Make a positive life choice and spread it to everyone in your vicinity. |
