It's been 18 days since I moved here in Paete and I haven't even shared a picture of my new home.
Well, I do have my reasons, one of it is because the place was not that presentable when I first came here. It used to be that the only residents in this house were my husband Cy and his younger brother Berg, thus, the house was in total chaos! When I first came here, I didn't even know where to start cleaning! (Cy, you could have at least swept the floors! -__-)
The store is named after my in-laws Nelly and Amado or 'Ding' Carolino. This is where daddy Ding's maternal grandparents, the old Afungol's used to live. When they bought the land from their uncle, the house was literally falling apart. Today, the 'silong' or ground floor is converted into a store with the living quarters on the second floor. They plan to renovate some parts of the second floor for us this month and make a separate room for Berg.
This is the first display cabinet I cleaned out when I came here, since the Monaco thread (used for crocheting) were so dusty that the pink thread was color gray and the navy blue ones were turning white -__-
Our store mostly sell items like thread, needles, buttons and the likes since Paete is a town of different crafts. We also have school supplies and gift items for sale.
As you can see, the store still needs a LOT of organizing. (my husband says everything will fix itself because he knows I'm an OC and hopes that I will clean it sooner or later -__- I hate you Cy).
We will also be selling some grocery items soon like canned goods, eggs, cooking oil, etc. Currently the only food we have are fruits from the farm in Alutay and Saray. These include bannanas (lots of them) pineapples, coconut, and sometimes lansones and rambutan - what ever is in season.
This is our sleeping quarters...
Which is all I'm gonna show you since the place is still a mess. Maybe a year from now it would FINALLY get CLEAN. Then I will proudly post pics here in my blog :)
