Baguio Christmas
Eve Dinner by Babeth Lolarga
Rolly and I
thought of treating the family members in Pasig to a Christmas in Baguio.
Money
was set aside for the bus fares of Mommy, Suzy, Gigi, Pinky, Ida and
Marga. Three-year-old Bianca still enjoys free fare. When they arrived
on the
afternoon of the 24th, there was warm spaghetti waiting for them that
I had cooked. For Christmas Eve dinner, Rolly and I went to town to buy
Sizzling
Plate leche flan and to pick up roast turkey from kindhearted Auring
Bautista, a Lolarga family friend who did the roasting gratis and with
love. So back
at home, we had Mommy's traditional morcon, I carved the turkey (powerful
feeling there when you do that), served salad and mashed potato. We were
so stuffed we couldn't stay awake for the midnight mass. We put off going
to church the following day, the 25th. Rolly had a fire roaring in the
fireplace. Nearby we posed in different hats from his collection.
Our
way of saying Happy Holidays to All! |
