    Dang Craves Puto Bumbong

    Tuesday, December 18th, 2007

    Puto Bumbong is a local Philippine treat which is also part of the Philippine Christmas Tradition. Here, the Christmas season officially starts on the first day of the “Simbang Gabi” or Mass At Dawn which is a 9 day novena to the Blessed Mother and it starts on December 16.

    During this period or even throughout the holidays, vendors selling Puto Bumbong line the streets around churches all over the country. Puto Bumbong is made of ground rice and cooked in bamboo tubes using a traditional steamer. It has a violet or purple color and served with butter and grated coconut meat on a heated banana leaf.

    We’ll Have A New Baby

    Sunday, December 16th, 2007

    My wife, Dang, is 5 months pregnant and we will be expecting a new baby by April or May this coming 2008. This is going to be our fourth and final child and yes we did plan to have four kids. There is a gap of four years between each of our kids. Our eldest is 12 years old, turning 13 this January, our second child is 8 years old and our third child is 4 years old. We already 2 boys and 1 girl, so we are really hoping that our new baby will be a girl. In fact, we already have a name prepared for her, Rhomiel Cloudia.  We are going to stick with that name until after the Ultra Sound where we’ll know the baby’s gender.

    We are very excited about it, even the kids are excited and eager to see the new baby, and I’m very happy that my wife is not having any problems with her pregnancy. After four months, I’ll be posting pictures of our new baby!
