A WONDERFUL BREAKFAST

​It was a beautiful morning with shimmering sunshine.  It’s been awhile that the Magnolias sat down over a sumptuous breakfast together. 


We welcomed the joy we had, the fun, the laughter, the jokes, the teasing and the overall excitement of being together, it was priceless. We felt great knowing our friends are around us; those who understand and care for each other.

Overjoyed over the fun that still prevailed,  I almost missed mentioning the awesome ambiance by the swimming pool; the table perfectly set which is par for the course, as always at Tess’s home. 




An array of fresh fruits artfully arranged on on their unique containers was beckoning to be devoured.  We were not left wanting for drinks, there were our fave power drink and freshly opened coconut water. 


There was the coveted spread on the kitchen island comprising of our favorites; the star being the humba, a Samar delicacy. 


The famous tinapa, smoked fresh fish from Calbayog


Dried dangit and dried iliw paired with fresh tomatoes 


I failed to take a photo of the omelette but i was able to borrow a photo of the palawan dessert being made. A kind of yam, sliced in big strips and slowly cooked in coconut milk and a little sugar. 



But I must tell you that we were not remiss of our health; there was an abbreviated Zumba session before we sat down for breakfast. 




Earlier as well, we completed walking 7 kilometers at dawn accompanied with a lot of chatting and laughter that awakened the endorphins and gave us a ravenous appetite. 


We wish you safe travels and happy landings Celine as you fly to Japan tomorrow.
