Dirty Ice Cream. Well-loved by Filipino children, the dirty ice cream is pedalled from one household to another. This ice cream comes in the usual cones and sometimes, on bread bunwiches. It costs cheap and has a variety of flavors - cheese, mango, avocado, chocolate. Name it and the Mamang Sorbetero has it!

Sing-a-long... This is a clear proof of the Filipino's love for music. Everywhere you go, may it be in bars, in small restaurants or even in carnivals, you'll always find a sing-a-long machine (which can be considered as the modern version of juke box stations). Just drop a coin or two and pronto!!! - you'll hear the latest songs on play. "Life without you is like a broken pencil, there is no point."

Hmmm! or calamansi with soy sauce. also "mang tomas" lechon sauce and tomato/banana catchup. But red chilies or siling labuyo beats it! it's good for fried, steamed and grilled fish. Farewell!

Balut, penoy. Balut is the luscious embryo of ducks. Penoy, on the other hand, is also duck egg but without the baby duck. Both are Pinoy delicacies and both are very nutritious. As they say, "Ang balut at penoy ay pampalakas ng tuhod".

As they say, "Ang balut at penoy ay pampalakas ng tuhod". For the non-Filipino, an adventurous spirit, a desire to explore the unknown and the ability to be open-minded are essential to the enjoyment of balut. A combination of saltiness and tartness, softness and crunchiness, a sensation of sweetness, the degree of resistance to the bite, the viscosity and stickiness are the rewards. Farewell!

He comes with a bell and a pushcart and swiftly push the ice cream troll and he moves. His ice cream or sorbetes maybe homemade or done with out the use of heavy machineries unlike Selecta and Magnolia and the taste maybe not so much fine sweet and delicious compared to Dreyer's but there are many children and adults waiting for his bell to cling.

I usually see some household waiting for the "mamang sorbetero" or the ice cream peddler to come. He comes with a bell and a pushcart and swiftly push the ice cream troll and he moves. His ice cream or sorbetes maybe homemade or done with out the use of heavy machineries unlike Selecta and Magnolia and the taste maybe not so much fine sweet and delicious compared to Dreyer's but there are many children and adults waiting for his bell to cling. probably dressed in "puruntong" shorts, a t-shirt and cap and sporting a "tsinelas" while clinging a tiny bell signaling he's in your street, ready to take your orders. "Dirty Ice cream" (Sorbetes) in Cone or Bread Bun? You name it, You've got it.. Farewell! God knows when we shall meet again.

Batanes -nominated in the UNESCO World Heritage list is the home of the "true insulares" of this country, The landscape of Batanes is also distinct from other Philippine provinces - steep cliffs, rolling hills, deep canyons and boulder-lined shores. But the most noticeable of all features of Batanes is the architecture of the houses - stone walled and thick thatched roofs to withstand the battering of typhoons.(a showcase of Filipino's adaptability and resilience).

Resilience - when I was a kid I have to brave countless typhoons, earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, world crisis during the reign of Saddam and Martial Law but I was still all smiles because of suspension of classes and these were the times when we really bonded as a family.

Ano, kuwan, eh. These are the expressions Filipinos use when they find themselves at a loss for the words. It is common to hear a Filipino saying "yung ano" or "yung kuwan" at the middle of a conversation. Amusing, isn't it? These 'word-gap-fillers' certainly work. What's amazing is that we manage to understand each other even when we're not certain about what the other is talking about!

Bagoong. Who could ever say no to manggang hilaw topped with mouth-watering bagoong? Well, I can't.! Bagoong, one the Pinoy's specialties, is made from small fishes or shrimps. Despite its not so attractive appearance, bagoong simply is irrisistible.

Sarao jeepney. A showcase of the Filipino ingenuity, the jeepney is the assembled remnants of World War II. You have to agree with us , it's much more economical to ride jeepneys, especially in these days of economic slump. Artworks of painstaking detail are often seen on the shining chrome bodies of these vehicles. Just look at the moving horse figurines, flags, colorful lights, paintings, traditional designs, bonnets, mirrors and stickers that were put on these vehicles, making each vehicle unique. Farewell! God knows when we shall meet again.

Bagoong. Who could ever say no to manggang hilaw topped with mouth-watering bagoong? Well, I can't.! Bagoong, one the Pinoy's specialties, is made from small fishes or shrimps. Despite its not so attractive appearance, bagoong simply is irrisistible. "why will you ruin the perfect taste of a mango with bagoong?" and I answered back, "why will you ruin the perfect taste of a fresh bread or biscuits with your vegemite?" (an acquired taste indeed, but the fusion of its saltiness and the sourness of a green mango is really out of this world, try depriving it to a soon-to-be mother and you will know its power) Farewell! God knows when we shall meet again.

Respect for the elders can be shown in various ways. Pagmamano is THE Filipino way. their opinions still matter even when we have our own respective families already, and most importantly we treat them as part of the family. (forget about Home for the Aged, no one is going there!) Farewell! God knows when we shall meet again.
