Birthday 2021

I turned thirty-five last August 13. I was fortunate to have a lovely celebration at home. It was memorable, even if the lockdown prevented me from going out. I am healthy, happy, and fortunate to have another year in this world, and those matter more than partying until the break of dawn.

We started with my favorite Taiwanese biang biang beef noodle soup from Pilya’s Kitchen at The Grid Food Market.

Then, I ordered milk tea from Cha Cha Go Visayas Avenue.

I was later surprised with cappuccino cake and gifts from my partner Lorenz. He visited me despite living near checkpoints. Massive props to him! I think he is a keeper.

We had Angel’ s Pizza in creamy spinach dip.

I was also surprised with chocolate cake from Fifth Gear. I am truly grateful and honored to be one of their blogger partners.

Lorenz gave me gifts that are meaningful and special. I will treasure these, especially the titanium promise ring. More than its aesthetic quality, I appreciate it for the significance that it holds.

I am blessed to have a supportive family, a blog that allows me to work with the best people, and a loving partner who shows up everyday. I am a very lucky girl.
