Nancy Cudis talks about Her mother's unusual breakfast time tales

I believe there is no greater compliment than a child writing praises to a parent, so when I read Nancy Cudis post about her Mom, I felt her Mom is the most lucky Mom in the world.   My mother and her unusual breakfast time tales By Nancy Cudis My mother is a born storyteller, very verbose and quite animated. Just like her own mother, she remembers many stories from long ago, even from the time when she started first grade. Mind you, not all of these are happy bedtime stories that make you smile before you sleep. These are tragic tales of the Japanese occupation, of unrequited love, of regrets, and of what-could-have-beens and what-ifs, pretty much balanced off with stories of climbing the neighbor’s mango tree (and harvesting some fruits without permission), of harvesting cacao at her family’s own backyard, and of endless talking over laundry by the riverside. Unsurprisingly, my mother being my mother—a maddening petite package of bluntness and gentleness, of fr

        2 min. read Cebu City, Philippines.           What makes a good bread?  There are certain qualities that people look for in a good bread.  We all have our own favorites.  For most of us Cebuanos, white bread is a staple.  And we usually have the usual sliced bread in our kitchen shelf.          Me and my boys love the commercially-available Ichipan white bread.  Sometimes, we run to the nearest Julie’s bakeshop for their rare special sliced bread.  But when a family friend introduced her daughter’s loaf to us, we were forever spoilt.     Here are 3 reasons we love Hannah’s White Bread: Freshly Baked     We all know that anything fresh-from-the-oven is heavenly.  And that’s what Hannah’s bread is all about.  She bakes it on the day you pick it up!  So it’s definitely by order basis only.  It’s still slightly warm when you hold the carefully packed loaf in your hands.  And you can’t wait to get home for a slice to bite straight into it! Just the right Texture     Hannah’s bread

Kota Kinabalu for non-climbers

The Sunday market at Gaya Street is a must-visit in Kota Kinabalu.  Haggling is a must too! (Photo by Richard Ramos) When my husband got free tickets from Air Asia to Kota Kinabalu, I didn’t hit the roof with excitement.   But it is an amazing treat!   So I figured there must be other attractions in this Malaysian city for non-climbers like me. True enough there were other adventures (albeit tamer) that we found to make our four-day stay truly awesome. Part One:   Shopping at Gaya Street Our first adventure was the Gaya Sunday Street Market.   All kinds of wares were for sale from the classic Muslim shawl to Sabah coffee and chocolates, to plants and animals including a dehydrated Persian cat.    The street hawkers displayed their goods on tables under tents all lined up and down the street on a weekly market that is open from six in the morning till one o’clock in the afternoon. So I asked one seller, “Why do you close at 1 o’clock?”   “Because it’s v
