Happy Birthday Mama Mary

Yesterday was Mama Mary's birthday. Catholics around the world celebrated the Virgin Mary's birthday on September 8.   As per historical documents, September 8, 20BC, is the birth of Virgin Mary, the Mother of Jesus Christ.  Her birth establishes the hope and the light of salvation for the entire world.  I went yesterday at the National Shrine of Saint Padre Pio to hear mass dedicated to the birth of Mother Mary. It is my way of thanking Mother Mary for all the blessings that I had received in my life.

Rice Fields

Whenever I travel to the south (CALABARZON) by bus, I never get tired of watching the rice fields along the highway. It always make me feel I'm on a different realm of existence - a peaceful place, and free of worries.

BibingKinitan at SM Bacoor

I found a new place to take rest after a shopping spree, wherein you can have a hot coffee for drinks and hot bibingka to eat.  It's becoming a popular eatery in every SM malls.  Here in SM Bacoor you can find it at the ground floor area. Bibingka is a type of rice cake which is very popular in our country, a Filipino dessert during Christmas season. It is traditionally cooked in clay pots lined with banana leaves.  Here in Bibingkinitan, they are selling the original bibingka and bibingka with different flavors. I recommend you visit and try to buy and taste the good smelling original bibingka. 

Makati City

I missed the hustle and bustle of Makati City especially at Ayala Avenue, Greenbelt area, and its vicinity.  It seems people never get tired of walking around going to their destination, some are busy with their cellphones talking and texting, group of employees laughing and joking to each other. The traffic jam during the peak hours is a bane to all Makati employees. It seems life in Makati never gets weary. Reminiscing the days when I used to work in Makati.
