Arnie and Loida finished buying everything they want to buy, they even ate rice and beef tripe gruel and rice noodle dish and have some to take home, at Yeye.

Mom, you’re already home??? Arnie greeted her mother when she saw her cleaning fish and pork meat in the kitchen.

yes, I’ve been here a while ago with your father. What is all that, that you bought??? Betty asked her daughter?

Loida bought a pair of earing and a new purse, me… I buy 1-kilo shoemaker fish and one half kilo anchovies that I’m going to make a ceviche. I also buy fish sauce for vegetable stew and some fish paste.

Betty: You….. child you really like eating shoemaker fish and ceviche anchovies. Almost everyday that shoemaker fish is your day and if not dried slipmouth fish.

Arnie: eh, mom!!! because it’s delicious!!! Arnie reasoned out to her mother.

Oh??? just admit that your daughter loves the sea soup and baby sharks, whenever she cooked it’s always salty. Just like seawater, when it comes to fish she always chose the smallest ones??? fishbones are the only thing you’ll get from it. Peter suddenly butted in at the mother and daughter’s talk.

Yes my child, avoid salty foods. it’s not good for the body. Betty agreed to what her husband said.

Arnie: yes mom, I’ll go ahead and soak the anchovies in vinegar first so that when I’m done slicing the onions, ginger, and chili I can start cleaning it and remove the fishbone.

Go ahead daughter, I’ll clean the Shoemaker fish for you before I cooked the pork in sour broth using cotton fruit ( Sandor ) kindly arranged all the other things that I bought in the market. Put the salt and sugar in its containers. Put the other vayand for our breakfast tomorrow inside the refrigerator. The stewed herrings, kindly remove a few firewood in it.

Arnie: yes mom….

Mom??? did you buy lots of pork meat??? Arnie asked her mother.

Betty: One kilo and a half, why??? Betty question her daughter.

Arnie: I’m going to separate some for breaded pork for tomorrow. remember, tomorrow we’re going to picked palm fruit at the west side of our farm??? Arnie reminded her mother
