Oh...and one more thing. I mentioned I live in Cali because I've got several friends who're Filippinos. (Tina Balch, Michelle Ebue, Christine Graham (my daughter's Preschool teacher and my friend) and Sherri Dimmick. They're married now so some don't sound Filippino-ish, but they are.
I also have a relative (close cousin; mah brother I never had; I'm an 'only' child) Ryan Nakamura, who lives in LA (Gardena, CA) and he's half-Filippino/half-Japanese. Yeah, his father is my mother's nephew. Cool huh? So, even his father is my 1st cousin. I know it's confusing but, hope u can follow. lol
And my mom's sister-in-law is Filippino...Josephina (Josie) Martin-Matsuda. She's my favorite aunty...and our immediate family because she married my mother's brother. My mother and brother are close. They meet every Thursdays for lunch. So, in contrast, my mother is always in contact w/the two of them.
That's how I've come to know Filippino foods too in my family and growing up in Hawaii. In Hawaii, there's TONS of Filippinos who live there, and we're like a 'melting pot' of various cultures and races.
You know what's my favorite? Eating Lumpia (beef & veggie ones), pancit (omg...mmmmmm!!), chicken adobo, and all kinds of other foods I can't seem to remember. lol There's this really good stew-like thing I ate once with stew meat and it had some kind of curry/yellowish-colored sauce mixed w/veggies. Omg, it was the one of the best things I ate if you eat it w/rice. I also love eating fish. ^_^
Okok...enough already before I go hungry. It's 7:34pm here and I'm dead-hungry. lol :P
