This explains the 11 rooms in the mansion of which 10 are now open to the public."Aling Meding" is the late family matriarch and ... Continue Reading...

April 18, 2006 ·

iBloggers As a blogger and as a writer who writes about bloggers, I simply had to attend the 2nd Philippine Blogging Summit (iBlog2) in faraway UP Diliman Quezon City today.

Photo shows some of the bloggers I saw: columnist Dean Bocobo, Atty. Marvin Aceron, lawyer Punzi, Mike Villar of The Man Blog and RonAllan. ... Continue Reading...

chicken halal Originally uploaded by annalyn. You are likely to stumble into Moud's Chicken Halal if you are one of those avidly scouring Quiapo for counterfeit DVDs of Jewel in the Palace and such. Even so, there are no signs announcing that you have arrived in Moud's except that the line is long and there's a big rotisserie grill roasting dozens of their golden-brown chicken. ...
