Hi Footloose, Natie et al. I am alive and well. Just totally swamped. And despite being swamped, I am amused/appalled by the brewing Presidential/Vice-Presidential race here in the Philippines. Reading the candidates platforms and looking for content has me wondering what future we have as a nation… So I was tongue-in-cheek thinking of writing about 20 things I would be worried about if I were President but it just seems like such a huge investment in time and effort… but maybe… :)

Meanwhile, we just hosted lunch for Eve Ensler and folks from the One Billion Rising Movement in Cebu and while of course she was just being polite… she enthusiastically declared “I have been to over 70 countries in the world and have had some spectacular meals, but this lunch was definitely one of the Top 5 I have ever eaten… and you can quote me on that!” Heehee. :)

@Natie. You must be snowbound just like me. Is it withdrawal symptoms you are experiencing or, even worse, the initial phases of Kübler-Ross stages of grief?

Almost a similar attempt to ‘Turducken’ which is compose of turkey, duck and chicken. The ‘Lechichor’ doesn’t look appetizing but I’m sure its delicious. Filipinos just love lechon.
