Homemade Stories

Some things are worth more than money. Some things are worth everything. Twelve-year-old Maya doesn't understand her father. While other kids' parents sell and trade and hustle, her Papa grows wheat in a country that runs on rice. He tends tomatoes, ampalaya, and squash on a small plot of inherited land. He grinds flour by hand with a stone mill. He bakes pandesal and cookies that fill their little apartment with warmth-but he refuses to sell any of it. Not the vegetables. Not the bread. Nothing. "It's for us," he says. "For the family." Her mother, Liza, sells shaved ice from a cart on their front lawn and sighs at the money they could be making. Maya dreams of new sneakers, of a life that looks more like her friends'. The gap between what her father gives and what the world says they need grows wider every day. Then one Tuesday afternoon, everything changes. A game of Scouts with her friends turns into something real when a stranger buys their "Survival Biscuits"-her father's cookies-for five hundred pesos. In the chaos that follows, Maya fights her best friend Rico for the money. She wins. But the victory tastes like nothing at all. What happens next will teach Maya, her mother, and everyone around them what it truly means to be rich. Shaved Ice and Wheat is a tender, heartwarming short story about family, friendship, and the quiet wisdom of a father who farms not for the market, but for the soul. Perfect for readers who love stories about food, Filipino family life, and the small moments that change everything.

REGULAR WASHING IS KEY Regular washing is the foundation of easy bedding care. Bed sheets can accumulate dust, sweat, and skin oils, making them a breeding ground for bacteria and allergens. To maintain fresh sheets, it's recommended to wash them every one to two weeks. However, if you're prone to allergies or have sensitive skin, consider washing them even more frequently.

Making own things at home by yourself. Bracelet, clothes, decoration, accessories. So go and choose what you would like to make.
