Bought a new pair of jeans last Saturday. I just love Crissa's slinky leg line so much that when I found a pair just my size, I just had to buy it.

=====================

Mom arrived yesterday from Manila. She didn't have pasalubong for me but she brought me a gift from my tita: genuine kwek-kwek. I said "genuine" because I noticed some people do not know the difference. So which is which?

> kwek-kwek - unborn chicken egg; egg that had been set aside from hatching but didn't; coated with an orange starch-based coating then fried.

> tukneneng - quail eggs coated with a orange starch-based coating then fried; usually served skewered

> balot/balut - unborn duck eggs

food, clothes
