  1. Your mom looks beautiful!!! I wanna look like her when I'm 70! She looks like she's only in her 50s! Lucky you, you gave good genes ;)

    P.S. She has NO wrinkles!

  3. Linnor, your mom does look so pretty!

    By the way, did you notice that you were mostly eating or drinking something in the 31 hour stop over you had in Manila. Buti you did not gain any weight... hehehe.

    I miss Recipes - it's one of our favorite restos. We love the gising-gising, Gen Cho Chicken and Fried Tilapia.

  4. huwat? 70 na si Mama? :P

    she does have wrinkles, but when she sees you and May - it goes away - it is passed on to Papa - who now has HIV - hair is vanishing.

  5. well, the bickering happened after you left. Ako ang pinagbuntungan ng galit sa pagkawala ng wallet niya. Haaay ako na naman.

  7. If your Mamarazzi looks 50 with no wrinkles, well charge it to or blame your Paparazzi for making her slightly used. Our sex life is some kind of a "Sex Olympics," meaning once in 4 years! Hehehe

    Kidding aside, what she is today is a by-product of good marital relationship where we put our Lord Jesus at the center. Or our marriage is likened to a TRIPOD--useless the two of us without the other One. Yes?

  8. e ang dami ngang tao. binili ko ng toy si zia with your gift sa toy kingdom tapos i also bought her shorts from Gap more than half ang sale, tapos dumaan kami sa lacoste...yun lang ang pinuntahan namin, naging 2 hrs na kasi kasama pa don yung kakahabol ko kay zia tsaka yung ufc champ na si lidell nagpadami din ng tao. they were just sitting anyway and i know naman na gusto lang nila umuwi dahil sa laban ng dlsu at ateneo kasi pagdating sa bahay, wala namang ginawa.

    Hi Chloe!

    Thanks! Ma would be flattered. 70 seems like a very old age but when I look at Ma, she does look like she’s only 60. :D I wish I’d grow as graceful as that too.

    Hi Leap of Faith!
    Uy, Ma would really be happy to know that. Yes, we were eating the whole time actually. I think the weight gain will be felt any day now. :D

    Hi Meeya!
    Thanks sistah!

    Hi Junnie!
    Septuagenarian na si mader! It was a stress-free reunion for the Arreza matriarch and sibs. Would you believe, no bickering happened this time????

    Hahaha!

    Hi May!
    Sabi sa akin, instead of 1 hour, 2 hours mo daw sila pinaghintay. Hehehe…. They worried that you and Zia got separated in that crowded mall. :)

    Hi Junnie!
    Napasarap ang shopping ni May while Ma was nursing her loss. :D

    Hi Paparazzi!
    Hala ka! Lagot ka na naman kay Mama for teasing her…. Hehehe… Good thing she doesn’t read my blog no?

    Kidding aside, I agree about the tripod. There’s always a 3rd party to a marriage…. God. :D

    Hi May!
    Hahaha… wag sa akin. Sa presinto ka magpaliwanag….

    Biro lang… Na-bad trip lang siguro si Ma kasi nadukutan sya… Lambingin mo na lang ;)

    Cheers!
