Valentine has been celebrated centuries ago and went on passed the turn of the millennium. It is a consequential moment to think not only of our significant other but of people close to our hearts. It is a time to showcase our love, gratitude and appreciation to those dear to us.
Certainly, Dolly did just that; she did no limit her attention towards her “Love” alone but set this day to glorify friendship; she invited us all to an awesome dinner at her lovely home.
“Wait, there’s more”, (Dolly would often say when retelling stories), she invited a quartet from the UP Madrigal Singers. They entertained us throughout the night with their melodious repertoire making the night so enjoyable.
Not to be outdone, the Magnolias have great singers too, but only Celine and Joy were confident enough to sing.
Celine belted “Just Tell Me You Love Me” in her smooth and southing voice.
Followed by Joy in her rendition of
“Isang Linggong Pagibig”
This was when we missed Claire, our very own Disney Princess, who could have shown her prowess in anything Disney.
The rest of us were just
Dinner was a wonderful affairs with sumptuous food and dessert galore. After dinner we continued sipping sake from Joy’s Japanese husband while we listened to the sentimental OPM love songs.
The quartet concluded the night with one of the best renditions of “The Prayer” I’ve ever heard. It got them a resounding round of applause from all of us.
We thank Dolly for the invite that made our valentine one of the best ever. We fully appreciate the welcoming attention of Vener, as well as her brother Chito and his understatedly beautiful wife Princess, who was so nice and sweet.
Happy Valentines Day everyone!
