In the drawing of Mori, Jennica's daughter, the actress was depicted as a toymaker.

Jennica said it was probably because her daughter noticed that she often turned damaged or stained clothes into toys.

The newly single mom also shared a funny story of when she overheard her daughter's conversation with a friend about their mother's jobs.

“Totoo pala 'yung jokes nung unang panahon, 'yung 'Wala kayo sa lola ko…' 'yung mga ganun.

“Kasi, narinig ko siya nakikipagganunan siya dun sa kaibigan niyang inglesero.

“Hindi naman sila nagkakaintindihan.

“'My mama, she came from the States and I have so many toys.' Tapos sabi niya, 'My mom is a lawyer.'

“Sabi nung anak ko, 'Well, my mom is a tindera!' Sabi niya. [laughs] 'You know a tindera?'

“Sabi ko, 'Ay, ito pala 'yung jokes nung unang panahon.' Sinasabi pala talaga. Sinasabi. Alam pala nila 'yon.”

Jennica then explained her side hustles when she took a break from showbiz.

“Kasi, maraket kasi ako nung hindi ako nag-artista, hindi ako mapili sa trabaho.

“Kunwari, gumawa tayong tinapay, white bread lang na tinapay, gagawa ako dalawa lang kasi hindi ko alam kung maraming bibili.

“E, siyempre, six floors 'yung unit namin, paglalalagyan ko ngayon 'yan ng flyers, di-sulat lang sa pad paper. 'Tapos ilalagay ko 'yung Viber number ko.

“'Tapos sasabihin ko sa kanila kaya kong mag-deliver ng 8 a.m. every day fresh.”

She then shared her “tindera” skills and how much she earned then.

“Ito na. Minsan. may nag-doorbell. 'Hindi ako nakapag-text. Wala kasi akong load. Out of stock na po.' Dalawa lang naman 'yung ginawa ko. (laughs)

“So, ang technique, kakalmahan mo lang muna para walang nasasayang na ingredients.

“Tapos 'pag alam nila na, 'Uy, nauubusan. Dapat o-order tayo.'

“So, kumikita ako nung time na 'yon PhP800-1,000 per day. E, i-30 days mo 'yon. O, 'di PhP30,000 din 'yun. “
