The Matriarch...Kwentong Pinas 

Simplicity and frugal living best describe her way of life. I asked her what she wanted as pasabulong, guess what she requested...dried seed ng bell pepper. Binisita n'ya kasi kami rito last June and was delighted to see those bell pepper. Tatanim n'ya raw....hehehe!

I used to snuggle with her (and eat whatever she cooks) everytime we come home and usually have that nirvana feeling...like a baby in her arms!
