Grateful to my parents...

Toni @toniganzon (77398) • Philippines 19 Jun

Though my parents didn't live long enough to witness my teenage years and adult hood, I am very grateful that they invested in our education. So much so that even when they were already dead, we still went to the best schools and...

Caramel Cake.

rakski @rakski (157175) • Philippines 18 Jun

This one is a favorite here at home. A sponge cake with caramel icing and filling. Not too sweet, just perfect. Every bites melts in the mouth. I like to pair this with coffee. It's a simple dessert but it goes a long way.

jaishankar Whenever I go somewhere, I never forget my phone there. But yes, I had once forgotten my umbrella at a bookstall, and once my bicycle at the weekly vegetable market. The owner of the bookstall handed over the umbrella to me the next day.
