My mom’s loot..

June 13, 2007 by Didi 3 Comments

Ever watched that episode of Friends where Chandler and Ross went to a Bed and Breakfast in Vermont? Then to make things even – Ross teaches Chandler to take what is just from the hotel? Well, I hate to admit it but I’m kinda one of those people.

Since we all pay good money for our hotels – it is just but right that we get items such as complimentary shampoos & conditioners, toothbrushes and paste, cotton buds, tissues, tea bag, fruits, and the like.

My mom has this thing for tissues. She loved them! She would get a box or two and keep it to herself! And last night – well, you can say that this was the first time it has happened.

She came back from Hong Kong – she brought home 3 pieces, 1 is a luggage and 2 were boxes. One of which contained roasted pork, roasted goose and roasted duck – and the other? Well, it was half filled with tissue boxes! Apparently – she got them from the hotel.

No – she did not steal them! They were given to her by the hotel! How? Well, whenever the leaves the hotel – she keeps the entire box of facial tissues in her luggage. In turn – housekeeping refills them every single time! Technically – she did not get them from the pushcarts! Hahaha…

This is one of the reasons why I love it when I travel with my mom. Technicalities of getting even. Hahahaha!! 🙂

    Hiya janusngo! Really? KKD? Haha! That’s tough!

    About the uncooked Wantons – where did he get those? I want them too!! Hahaha.. It’s hard to get the HongKong style/taste of goose and roast duck here in Manila. They’re either too dry, walang mashadong lasa or too hard!
