Hubby have a business trip to Arizona on Valentines Day. He left for work in the morning as usual and made him breakfast as I had my daily morning coffee. I was not able to go to the Sunday dinner at Mom's so I decided to visit them. I brought some of the lemons and oranges from the backyard. One of my sisters-in -law was there with my 3 youngest niece and nephews. I visited with them. the youngest one have so much energy. Came and greeted me at the door with a hug and big smile. Had the munchies and presents my sister brought from the Philippines Love them all especially the "Ilocos Calamay" I crave it and "tinubong" which is made of rice flour and cooked BBQ style in a bamboo tubing.
I left for a while to go to the mall-JCPenney. I needed a rod for my draperies in the Family room. I decided to replace the vertical blinds to real curtain. Back to Mom's and we sat in her living room and just chatted about "Stuff"till late It was after 22:00 so I left for home. Still have a little over an hour drive.
I got home and I found this flower arrangement at the doorstep. My loving husband have not forgotten Valentines. After 10 years he still sends me flowers.
This is the ultimate delicacy I crave "Candon Calamay". It is this patty made of sticky rice flour and grated coconut. Hmmmm yummy. This is the only thing I asked my sister to bring back.
