This is a special Mother’s Day meme that I received from my fellow WifeSpeaker, Maver.  Thank you, Maver!  I will not tag anyone for this Meme as I know all blogger moms will be too busy celebrating (it’s only Saturday night where I am right now).  Just in case you want to snag this tag… here are the rules: 

1. Just choose any Mothers’ Day graphics from Zwani to greet the mommies you know.
2. Add your blog to the list. Feel free to add all your blogs.
3. Tag other mommies you know.

Happy Mother’s Day to all my friends in and out of the blogosphere.  Greetings go to moms-to-be as well!  God bless you you all and take advantage of this one day when you get extra extra special treatment. :D

Roaming in Rome


May 10th, 2008

Instead of the usual coming of age party, my Mom gifted me with a trip to Italy on my 18th birthday.  That was about 15 years ago.  And it was one of our most memorable trips ever.  We were able to go to the key Italian cities of Milan, Florence, Venice and of course, Rome.  As an architecture student that time, it was a real treat to see for myself, the glory that was Roman architecture.  It was surreal to be right smack in the middle of famed structures and monuments I read about in my History of Architecture book…the Vatican, the Colloseum, the Trevi Fountain, even the quaint pasta restaurant seemed signifacant to me.

I hope to be able to go back to Italy with hubby and my daughter, and my Mom too!  A  vacation rental Rome Italy will just be perfect.  15 years is a long time.  And a trip back to my favorite cities is definitely in order.

PH #9: Any


May 10th, 2008

“Any” is this week’s Photo Hunt theme.  I was looking for a gorgeous-looking dish to post but, since tomorrow’s Mother’s Day, I decided on something more approrpiate. ;)

Cheers to all moms!

Happy Mother’s Day!!!

This photo was taken a little after midnight of January first.  It has been a Filipino tradition to welcome the new year with a nice meal.  Usually, the dining table is filled with food that are believed to bring prosperity…round fruits (which we have, as you can see!), noodles (for long life), sweets & sticky food (so auspicious luck sticks to everyone in the home), etc.  This was our first family New Year’s celebration in the US and I’m very glad that my Mom was able to join us. 

I have a cybergift for all moms HERE.  More Photo Hunt HERE.
