This little pig was high on drugs

On the way home after three days in Tagaytay, we stopped at Sta. Rosa, Laguna for dinner. We decided three days earlier that we would eat at Pig Out and we did. The curious thing was that as soon as we were seated, instead of picking up the menu — which is automatic with Sam [...]...

Do you have a gleek in the house?

For the past few months, I’ve been tempted to conduct a survey among parents with teenage kids. The question: has Glee invaded your home? It sure has invaded mine. Because of Alex, not Sam. Sam is nuts over Adam Lambert. Her classmates say that if Adam comes to the Philippines to do a concert,...

Wreath, garlands and lights

Most of my friends put up their Christmas trees and lanterns almost as soon as Halloween was over but not us. We don’t even have a tree yet. Speedy refused to make a deposit for a fresh fir tree because of what happened last year — S&R dropped the price of the tree from P4,000.00 to...
