2020 Project 366, Day 348: Goodbye, Uncle Amante

Tito Amante is not my biological uncle, but I feel like we’re related because of our deep love for UP, especially when it comes to supporting the Fighting Maroons. He often sent me links to articles or pictures related to UP or even Astro Boy! Sobrang nakakatuwa/nakakatawa pati ng mga comments niya, especially when he says, “Joie de vivre!” Today, I woke up to the news that he’s celebrating his birthday… in heaven. My heart goes out to the del Mundo family, especially to my soul sister Timyas. I feel like I lost a father, too.

2020 Project 366, Day 140: My Sister’s Birthday

Photo #140: May 19

Today’s mini birthday feast for my sister! I made pasta puttanesca and ordered the rest.ย ๐Ÿ˜…ย The mandu is fomย Luto ni Tisay Ulam2Go. I fried half of them and steamed the other half; I like both, but Kate prefers the latter. The authentic & delicious dinakdakan is fromย Tita Adah’s Homemade Eats, while the yummy & zesty lemon pound cake is fromย Sunrose Bakes! Happy birthday, Kata! Thank you for your lovely meals and patience in doing housework hahaha love you!ย ๐Ÿ˜˜ย
