Hey a little edit on this post, the dude finally called, but now I’m broke again lol, so this time I will be the one playing dumb, and “arrange and reschedule things” and “CALL” him back.

Yes, this is a cruel world, no doubt. And I agree with you, those little girls and boys are true victims, it’s so sad!!

Good morning! Here we have a sunny day, looks great! Hope you and your family enjoy both birthdays celebration and don’t worry about your belly! Here in Spain we have been celebrating “semana santa” (holy week) and, for good or for bad, I have eaten too much! Have a happy day!

Yes that’s true we all have that special person in our lives that we can always run to whenever we feel down cast or we feel frustrated. For me i can say that person is my mum. Me and my mum have been friends ever since I was born. We have a strong bond that i guess no one else can really reach. She has always been there for encouraging me and just letting me know that whenever I need a shoulder to cry on she is always there. She is one person that i feel very comfortable around, i can tell her anything. We discuss issues we laugh and cry together she is truly my strength when am down. She has been so patient with me. Sometimes I could get rebellious but then sit back and think, what am I doing does my mum really need to stress out coz of me? Of course not so i obviously stop and go back to being the nice girl that i am. So i appreciate her very much and i always pray for her that God may grant her more and more wisdom and strength long live my Momma!

It is a very beautiful festival. Tobacco had been a source of livelihood of people in most parts of Ilocos region. It is good the revenue from it goes back to the people in form of public services and infrastructure projects.

Cool post! I’m into world cuisine and sampling global flavors. The thing I notice about recipes from around the world is that many of the key ingredients are universal.

My father is ilocano and I have tasted all the dishes you mentioned.

I like Ilocano dishes too. Malaga is a very delicious fish, but I don’t know about sapsapuriket! I love their vegetable dishes like pinakbet.

I love kilawen, best of all.

My mom is also an Ilocano, she is from La Union.

Her cooking is always my barometer for what good food is. It seems that she has a magic wand that everytime she cooks, the turn out is always heavenly!

I want to try this sapsapuriket. I haven’t seen my mom cook this recipe.

Is it okay to ask for the recipe for sapsapuriket? I

Thank you for this article. It is so informative.

I am hungry now hehehehe all these are my favorites. I eat kinilaw seldom only chicken only native deep fried. Long time no hear from you my friend.

They are sources of livelihood, but negatively affects other people, that of tobacco smoke; firecrackers and pyrotechnics; and gambling which teach some people to depend on mere luck for easy money instead of finding other sources. It could be good; though those industries can be a source of tax for the government, but they should be regulated well on especially regarding safety measures.
