Yesterday marked another year for our dearest Lola Meding who looks like she is still in her 70's though she's already 19 years past that age. Lola is half Spanish but the family celebrated her birthday with a slight Chinese twist by skipping the 89th, hence the number 90 on her cake. Except for a few, everyone opted to wear the festive color red. As usual, food was great. It was even better because everything was made lovingly in my Tita's kitchen. And to my delight, the menu was predominantly seafood fare. Grilled fish, sea urchin, crab relleno, kinilaw (a staple in all our family gatherings)...Hmm, could that be the secret to longevity?
To you our dearest Lola Meding, happiest of birthdays!
