Trail Mixes for My iPod




Before, I had playlists called 7SS or Seven Song Swing--seven songs of the same genre that sound alike and feel like one song and after the 7th song you're already longing to hear the 1st song again. Right now I have what I call Trail Mixes. Ten to twenty five songs from different genres in one playlist that's filling, "nutritious", and  "healthy" for my musical soul.

Jollibee Menu Mash-Ups

* We eat at Jollibee almost everyday. And although "langhap sarap" sa Jollibee, you'll also get kinda bored with the food. Here's a few ideas I came up with to diversify the food choices:

TWO-MEAL BREAKFAST SHEBANG!
1) Can't decide whether you'll order pancakes or a rice meal? Buy a PANCAKE SANDWICH and EXTRA RICE, ask for some CATSUP and MAPLE SYRUP. Remove the sausage patty from the Pancake Sandwich and eat it with rice and catsup. Set aside the two pancakes and save it for round 2 with syrup. Although di na lagi available and Pancake Sandwich.

INSANELY CHEAP ROAST BEEF SANDWICH
2) Roast Beef Sandwich. Buy a REGULAR SOLO JOLLY HOTDOG (the one without the dressing and cheese, only 25 bucks), and either a 39ers BEEF AND MUSHROOM or TAPSILOG. Order GRAVY for 5 pesos. Ask for CATSUP. Remove the hotdog from the Jolly hotdog. Put the BEEF from the tapsi or 39ers in the hotdug BUN then smother with gravy. There you have a ROAST BEEF SANDWICH. Then eat the hotdog with catsup and the rice from the tapsi.

JOLLY YUM DOG
3) Buy a REGULAR SOLO JOLLY HOTDOG and a REGULAR YUM. Tear apart the patty and the hotdog. Put the burger patty in the hotdug bun and the hotdog in the burger bun. It's a more enjoyable experience, I promise.

MEAT PIE ALA BEE
4) Buy a PEACH MANGO PIE or a TUNA PIE, and a REGULAR SOLO JOLLY HOTDOG and a REGULAR YUM. Buy GRAVY too. Bring a small knife and a chopping board. Dice the hotdog and the burger patty and mix with gravy in a Jollibee rice meal plate, then set aside. Cut open the flap of the pie and drain or scoop out the Peach Mango or the Tuna filling. Use a spoon to jam the hotdog-burger patty-gravy mix in the pie crust.

CHICKEN JOYOUS OH SANDWICH
5) Buy a 1-PIECE CHICKEN JOY and a REGULAR SOLO JOLLY HOTDOG. Remove the skin from the Chicken Joy and choose the juiciest chicken meat. Remove the hotdog from the bun and replace it with the choicest chicken meat and skin. Smother with gravy. You can also buy a BURGER YUM WITH TLC and replace the burger patty with Chicken Joy.

That's it, hope you try it. HINDI TAYO NAKAKAHON NG MENU! Remember that! Happy eating!
