Most of it, except food for my kids. I buy them cereals, milk drinks, cookies, mga ganun. eto i don't share. Naalala ko tuloy yung yaya namin dati na isa. Nahuli ko ng-kakape, kumukuha ng Promil to add to her black coffee kasi walang creamer that time. Kainis.  >:(

no, i don't allow that. kasi minsan meron talga akong gusto na food na reserved for myself at naiinis ako pag may kumain. so hiwalay talga food nila and ours.  i give them the snacks and coffee every 15 and 30 of the month.

dati kahit ano pwede as in I don't really care most of the time sa labas ako kumakain kasi feel ko kulang na ang food sa bahay.  But when I switched to organics hindi na pwede.

minsan nag uwi ako ng pastries from bread talk.  bilang na bilang yun para sa aming mag iina.  aba pag gising ko kinabukasan ako pa ang nawalan ng share.  kinain ni maid of honor yung share ko.  eh minsan minsan lang ako bumili nun kasi naman medyo may kamahalan sya.  dati naman nagpa deliver kami ng pizza for dinner.  wala pa si maid nun kasi day off.  aba pagdating ng bahay from her day off nagbihis lang tapos derecho kuha ng 2 slices of pizza dun sa mesa at kinain sa room nya.  susko, di man lang nagpaalam at saka day off nya, di ba dapat kumain na sya sa labas nun considering na she got home past 8pm na.  hay naku, masyadong feeling close yata itong si maid at kala nya eh kapamilya sya.  dahil sa mga ganyang insidente napilitan na ako bumili ng small ref at nilagay ko sa room ko para yung mga food na di nya dapat galawin eh dun tinatago.  dati pa nung wala kaming small ref eh makakakita ka ng balat ng chocolates in her room.  nagpyepyesta pala sa tsokolate ang lokah!

Yes I do :) kasi 3 lang kame nila helper and baby sa house. So kahit anong nasa fridge, okay lang na kainin nya. Pero hindi naman sya sumosobra to the point na bubuksan nya yung food na hindi pa ni-oopen. But I always tell her na basta gutom sya or type nya kumain, kuha lang sya ng food sa ref or sa cabinet.
Lovin' my LIFE =)

I do pero pag may food na para lang sa amin sinasabi ko lang na wag nya galawin yung particular food na yun.  Pero madalas nasisiraan kami ng food esp yung mga natira from eating out kasi di rin naman nya talaga pinapakialaman.  Kakain lang pag ako na mismo ang mag-alok.

Nung may helper pa kami, alam naman nilang ilagay sa lugar ang sarili nila. They do not eat what is not theirs. If gusto ng helper namin ang certain food eh sasabihin naman sa akin or sa mother ko and bigyan naman namin siya.

We had this helper na super sipag, no complains ako pagdating sa kasipagan niya BUT grabe siya kumain. Pag nagluluto nag papasobra talaga. Kasama naman siya sa food for breakfast pero twice pala siya nag aalmusal, pag kagising & after namin magbreakfast ng family ko... At gustong gusto ang spam & bacon. Kaya pala mabilis maubos ang bacon... favorite pa naman yun ng asawa at anak ko...

I admit grabe talaga kumain ang mga kasama sa bahay.  But I set rules.  I have 1 yaya and 1 helper.  Alam nila kung ano lang ang para sa kanila.  I buy cookies and eight o'clock juice for their merienda.  Gardenia sandwich with peanut butter or cheeze whiz and san mig coffee for their breakfast.  But I'm thinking nga na yung mga murang sandwich nalang ang bilhin ko [textspeak!] 2 days pa lang ubos na agad yung sandwich.  Pero lunch and dinner same lang din kung anong kinakain namin.  Kung steak, naka steak din sila.  Pati toiletries nila sagot ko din shampoo, soap and toothpaste.  Swerte na nga sila at maayos din kame makisama.  Although minsan naiinis ako [textspeak!] hindi nagagawa ng tama ang dapat nilang gawin.  Wala na nga sila gastos at madali lang trabaho nila.  Yung yaya ko nga nangutang umabot na sa 9k utang nya pero nung may 15 nag request buong sweldo daw muna sya ok lang sa kin.  masyado ba ko mabait?:-)  pero this month end payday hindi na pwede dahil 5k pa ang utang nya sa kin.  mapagkakatiwalaan naman sila pareho kaya ok lang din.

Some people might misquoted my statement more than what i mean but it doesn't mean i would change my perspective, their critical notion hasn't hindered me in any way. Maybe they are searching a good recipient of their frustrations & intellectual arrogance

naexperience nyo na yung helpers na nagbibitbit ng canned goods and bigas pag day off? imbyerna!

we are not that strict naman kasi pag umaalis sila so we dont really check their gamit, but then prone din talaga sa mga abusadong helpers pag maluwag ka sa kanila. merong mga opportunista.

yes, mabait naman si yaya and alam nya yun kung ano lang dapat nyang kainin... though wala ako9ng ibinabawal alam na nya yun kasi nahihiya sya,..
They didn't bother to find out who and what I was. Instead they would invent a character for me. I wouldn't argue with them. They were obviously loving somebody I wasn't."

^^Yes, unfortunately, we did experience that. Back then when hindi pa kami makahanap ng stay-in na kasambahay, we had to resort to an all-around na uwian. I'd check naman her bag before she left so that wala siyang bitbit na di dapat, pero marunong din eh. Usually, ang kinukuha niya na stuff ay yung di naman kagad mapapansin na nawawala. Like the green eco bags from SM, used candles, and such. But di ko na talaga na-take was when I found out that some instant food went missing, like the mac&cheese that was supposed to be for my daughter. Ang style pala niya is, since she knew that I would check her bag, may iniiwan na siyang ibang bag sa labas ng house namin. One that I wouldn't know about, kasi after I check her bag, umaakyat na ko sa 2nd floor. In short, I don't see her off na. I should've been more diligent. Napansin ko lang yun the last week she stayed with us. She texted me nga after nakahanap na kami ng stay-in kung pwede pa siyang magwork samin. Dinedma ko na. Alam ko, maghahanap lang siya ulit ng mga stuff na pwedeng kunin. Kaya for my helpers now, I give them their own snacks and drinks. I told them once when they arrived that whatever I give them is all they can have. The stuff in our pantry is off limits. So far, sumusunod naman sila.

  Katakot nman yan sis baka hindi lang bigas or canned goods kaya kunin nyan next time.

kaya sa much as possible wag ka kukuha ng malapit lang sa inyo ang house, kasi yan talaga ang maaaring mangyari.  Kaya nga kahit may nag-aapply na Hh na taga dito lang sa area namin ayaw pumayag ni hubby, kasi na experience na raw niya ang ganyan before sa dati nilang labandera.

Hay naku, ganyan din mga yayas ko... Pero minsan lang naman sila kung kukupit ng food sa ref... Alam naman nila na hindi dapat nila ginagalaw food sa ref... And i give them 600 per week para sa food nila... Sila na bahala ipagkasya yung pera sa food nila for a week... Kaya nakakainis kasi minsan may inopen sila na food na nakasara... Badtrip diba? Tapos one time, yung food ni hubby kumupit pa ng isang piraso si yaya kasi yung driver namen ayaw daw yung breakfast nila. Huwaaaat? Maarteng driver... Hahahahaha! Yung food ng househelp ko iba sa food namen. May times na kung may ulam kami na marami, share din namen para hindi na sila magluluto ng food nila... ;)
