This bowl of chocolates is a constant on my parents’ coffee table. It is settled right beside a stack of coffee books. I find it great relaxation to pick up a huge book and leaf through the pages while munching on a miniature chocolate bar. Yum! Of course, you can only have these in [...]
This 10th issue of Lasang Pinoy gave me an excuse to indulge in one of my favorite childhood snacks — the condensed milk sandwich.
I remember running to the dining room after school, then hastily parting a pan de sal (which I also did for this LP, hence the uneven grouch-like look of the bread!), drizzling [...]
Turon with langka and saba.
Sarap talaga ng meriendang Pinoy! Anyone want one?
This water lily blooms only during the day. I love seeing its petals wide open in the sunlight. In the evenings, I see it shy away from the moonlight, its petals closed and seemingly dreaming of sweet, sweet things.

This is one of the best party foods ever! When I was a kid, I remember my Mom and aunts sliding a barbecue stick into a hotdog and topping it with marshmallows. They made lots of those. Then they’d stick these snack delights into a head of lettuce (or was it cabbage?) or a [...]
Instead of the usual cake for celebrations, why not bake cupcakes and present them in this pretty pretty way? My sister P prepared this for our other sister’s graduation party last year. P baked chocolate cupcakes with chocolate frosting and strawberry cupcakes with vanilla frosting (not too sure about that though). In the [...]
It’s a warm afternoon. You and I are meeting up at a cafe for the first time. Don’t worry, you’ll know it’s me — small girl with the messy hair, black t-shirt, a bead necklace, blue jeans and flip-flops. I wave at you and wave back. After a quick hug, we settle down into [...]
