1. Halo-Halo (Mix-Mix) lutong-bahay-halo-halo Halo Halo by klaurico Undoubtedly one of the best desserts that the Philippines has. Halo-halo is a dessert that is made up of shaved ice and is topped with condensed milk along with many other sweet toppings. That includes ice cream, ube halaya, leche flan, jellies, beans, etc. And it is easy to find in many small and big stores anywhere in the country as well. What makes halo-halo interesting is its origin. Its basic principle traces back to desserts that mainly use shaved ice with sweet toppings. But it is closest to Kakigori, which is a Japanese dessert that has sweet beans on top of shaved ice. The Japanese brought such dessert into the Philippines around the early stages of World War II. Luckily, ice plants were already in the country during those years, especially after the Americans built the first one in 1902. Then, the Filipino creativity just kicked in by adding more applicable toppings on the dessert, until it became a unique cold treat on its own. 2. Leche Flan lutong-bahay-leche-flan Leche Flan, To order contact unclereyskitchen You can’t talk about the best Filipino desserts without mentioning leche flan. It is the Philippine take of the European crème caramel, and is also made from steamed or baked egg yolk with sweetened milk and caramel. And it also carries a rich backstory from the days of Spanish occupation in the archipelago. Before, Spaniards put egg white into their concrete mixtures that they use for building different infrastructures. This means discarding so much egg yolk that they don’t need. That’s why Filipinos tried to find ways on how to use those leftovers. As a result, the yummy leche flan came to be. 3. Puto and Kutsinta lutong-bahay-puto-and-kutsinta Puto and Kutsinta by im_jezanaih Puto and kutsinta are popular steamed rice cakes that Filipinos love to have as snacks or desserts. Puto is often paired with savory Filipino food such as dinuguan and pancit, whereas kutsinta is often topped with grated coconut. Filipinos also love to have puto and kutsinta during the Misa de Gallo or Dawn Mass at the Christmas season. This is partially because of Lakapati (also known as Ikapati), who is the goddess of agriculture and prosperity of the pre-Hispanic Tagalog people. Ancient people used to make rice cakes among other delicacies as tribute for Lakapati, which is supposed to get a good harvest on the following year. Such practice was Christianized by the Spaniards, became famous during Misa de Gallo, and continues until today. That means keeping a good number of the best Filipino desserts for the present folks to enjoy, of course. 4. Filipino Ice Cream lutong-bahay-ice-cream-pinoy Pinoy Ice Cream by Of course, Filipinos love ice cream too, just like how others in the world do. But ice cream brings some unique experiences for everybody in the country. First, the biggest ice cream brands in the Philippines have unique flavors that you can’t easily find with western ice cream. Yes, they offer the classic chocolate, vanilla, rocky road etc. But they have ube, buko pandan, and mango among other unique flavors as well. Cheese ice cream is even available around. And second, dirty ice cream or Sorbetes is an ice cream variation that is truly Filipino. It has its roots when some American traders brought tons of ice from the USA to the Philippines around 1840’s. Sorbetes is manually made by mixing ice, carabao milk, and fruits in a container. But today, the sorbetes is traditionally sold by peddlers on the streets using their small ice cream carts. 5. Ube Halaya lutong-bahay-ube-halaya Ube Halaya by preciousjuniar Ube is a popular flavor and topping for many desserts in the Philippines. It is even more popular than vanilla in the archipelago, as well as it has reached other countries worldwide too. Ube is a purple root crop that is a cousin of sweet potato and are tropical plants that are abundant in the Philippines. Now, Ube Halaya is made from boiled ube root and is then grated before use. It is cooked with sugar and coconut milk

among other ingredients until it turns into a jam. It is uncertain how ube halaya was discovered by Filipinos and became one of the best Filipino desserts. But it is a widely used ingredient for many other desserts today, such as Halo-Halo, ice cream, cakes, and turon. Enjoy the Best Filipino Desserts through Sweet and Unique Ways Today Ready to try some of the best Filipino desserts today? Begin with the list above to enjoy Philippine delicacies that bring a lot of stories to you. Just remember that Filipino desserts aren’t necessarily eaten after meals, since they’re typically enjoyed during snacks and breakfast too. Choose one that fits your taste today!

REGION 3

Region 3 comprises with the seven provinces in the central plain of Luzon namely; Aurora, Bataan, Bulacan, Pampanga, Nueva Ecija, Tarlac and Zambales. It has a total land area of 2,147,035 hectares. About 30 per cent of the total land area estimated at 644,475 hectares are devoted to agricultural production.

Beliefs and Practices

Birth Practices.  In one of the barrios of Guagua, Pampanga, close relatives of a woman who is about to deliver a child, together with their neighbor, make noise like shouting, beating tin cans and exploding firecrackers in order to help expel the fetus faster.

      Baptismal Rites Practices.  In many Kapampangan houses, the baby’s baptismal dress serves as a souvenir and decoration for the sala.  It is put on a frame and hung in the sala like a picture.

      Courtship and Marriage.  The only prevalent form of courtship now is the pamanhikan, where the male, with the permission of the parents, is to visit the girl in the latter’s house.  When the agreement is reached between the boy and the girl, the marriage ceremony is arranged.  At present,  pamanhikan  is being practiced when the parents of the boy confer with their balae  (parent of the bride-to-be) regarding marriage plans of the children.

      Death and Burial.  The wake (makipaglame) lasts for at least three days and two nights after which everybody participates in the libing (interment). As part of the ritual, vigil is observed till the ninth day after the death of the deceased known as pasiyam(day).

      On the first death anniversary, lukas paldas (literally the removing of the dress for mourning) is practiced with a grandiose meal.  The pangadi (prayer observance) is an important part of the ritual.

      On Beliefs.  Some of the beliefs which have survived to this day are the following:

Nunu - the old men who reside in mounds

Mangkukulam - flesh and blood men/women possessing dreadful evil power

Tianaka - evil spirits who inhabit forests and bamboo thickets

Dwende - spirit that assume the form of man

Kapre - nocturnal giants

Magkukutud - beings endowed with supernatural powers to separate their heads from their bodies

CULTURE

With its people of diverse language draws a cultural array rich in its own way. Just like any town in the province, Fiestas still abound in this community in celebration of Feasts of Saints and Thanksgiving Festivals. The open doors during fiestas signal an invitation for anyone to join the festive bouquet of local delicacies from the original menu of Victorian tastes. Home to quality diket – a variety of rice that is the original ingredient to native rice cakes, kakanin like patupat, palitaw and tupig among other sweet cakes are some of the learned and passed on culture of food delicacy in the town. Up to the present time, new generation kept the recipe with its tastes that never parted on its original texture.

Being an agricultural community, customs associated in farming are equally maintained. The vast green fields in barangays San Andres and Sta. Lucia, among others have preserved some of their customary farming equipments such as the “kabyawan” (sugar mill) and “ulnas” (carabao-driven cart). Despite the introduction of modern farming facilities to augment traditional means, some of the local farmers have lived up for their practiced method that had existed over time.

Visit barangay Sta. Barbara and their well-preserved culture of pottery-making. Candid shapes of “dalikan”(clay-stove), cooking and ornamental pots are displayed as if boasting its continuous existence in the place. The culture of pottery-making had contributed not only in maintaining a Victorian culture, but also in economic boost of some households.

The religious aspect of local culture comes alive during Lenten season where “kalbaryos” are put up in every corners of each Barangay singing in various versions (Kapampangan, Tagalog, Ilocano, English and Latin) the“pasyon” of Jesus Christ. “Panata” is still practiced by many wherein penitents carry the cross, inflict wounds on themselves in repentance of their sins, while tracking Brgy. Palacpalac, where the gathering of the believers takes place in a small church beside a century-old acacia tree.

Come summer season, when flowers are in bloom, young ladies once again enjoined to wear their gowns for the Santa Cruzan as the highlights of May Festival.

Some performing artists from schools and veterans are once again reviving cultural presentations for the town fiesta. It may be a quiet town, not eminent so to speak, but this is an analogue to the humility of the town folks. Victorians would rather act than speak; they are people of performance and achievements, rather than pronouncements and empty talks.

Happy Worldbuilding Wednesday! Tell us about travel. Are there unique dangers on the road, special sights to see? How do people normally get around? How likely is the average person to travel? Is it particularly dangerous, or quite common?

Happy Worldbuilding Wednesday!

Forsaken Gods is set in the modern world, so travel is pretty much the same as we have, with the usual sceneries we expect, save for the occasional sighting of creatures that normally don't exist. Folklore advises wearing your shirt inside-out if you don't want these creatures playing with you that you end up right where you started—or worse, lost in a city where the residents are no longer human.

The main squad uses an old owner-type jeep (which I took inspiration from watching too much old local action movies) for their adventures, but we can also throw in a flying motorcycle in there, and a flying ship, and a flying jeepney, because flying!!! When I was writing the earlier drafts, flying seemed the best option to avoid traffic and congested cities and get the characters where I want them fast.

As for the ones in Isla de Sangre, people usually ride carts pulled by carabaos. The island isn't very large so people can get around places even by just walking. (Sometimes walking even gets you faster than by riding a cart).

My Travelogue

Hello, Tagaytay !

Hello Guys today is my travel day to all the travellers out there, there is a

wonderful place for you to relax and enjoy the true beauty of nature. Let us all wander around and experience the cool climate of this place. Welcome to Tagaytay!

Now I'm here in Tagaytay and this travel had given me so much hangover that made this place very unforgettable. As we were on our way getting closer to Tagaytay, I can already see from afar its features like the tall trees, piles of pineapples and its effortless amazing aura. Gradually, closer and closer, I can already feel its cool breeze touching every part of my skin making me feel relaxed and excited.

Oooops! Those were just the feelings outside Tagaytay and you will be more amazed about its inside features.

Before wandering around, let us know the

interesting trivias about Tagaytay:

> The cool Tagaytay weather is mostly due to its location. The city sits right on top of Tagaytay Ridge, some 600 meters above sea level. In fact, the highest point is right where People’s Park in the Sky is located, which is on a mountain called Mt. Sungay.

> Tagaytay City is one of the cleanest tourist spot in this country. The City Government has already banned the use of plastics, styrofoam and they reagulate the use of plastics to wet goods.

> Legend has it that the word “Tagaytay” came from “TAGA” meaning “to cut” and “ITAY” which means “Father” . A father and son were said to be on a wild boar hunt when the animal they were chasing turned and attacked them. As the boar charged towards the old man, the son cried “TAGA- ITAY” . The boy’s repeated shouts reverberated in the valleys of the ridge. Heard by the residents, hunters and wood gatherers, the cries became the subject of conversation for several days among the people in the countryside. In time, the place where the

shouts came from became known as

TAGAYTAY.

Dos and Don’ts in Wandering in Tagaytay:

> Always do check your belongings and

valuable materials.

> Do keep your family/friends accompanied with you while on a trip.

> Do follow the guidelines and rules of a

particular place.

> Do enjoy the trip.

> Don’t litter or put your trash anywhere.

> Don’t go to unknown places alone.

> Don’t ruin the plants or anything that is in there.

Here are some Places to visit in Tagaytay: Nature and Parks

Picnic grove – A very relaxing place for

recreation and a stress reliever

Picnic Grove – This place had gave me a

very refreshing feeling because of the eye-cooling view of the place, the breezy

weather and the tents that can shelter us

and gave us comforting time for bonding

with my friends and family while eating

bunch if pineapples!

Paradise for nature lovers!

Paradizoo – theme place that suited my

longing for a peaceful and yet exciting

sanctuary because it offers a combination of paradise and zoo that is uniquely relaxing and entertaining. This had soothed my naked eyes by taking a closer look at the beauty of flora and fauna. Gardens are full of vegetables, floral designs, formal hedges and topiary, also, there is a secluded meditation garden dominated by giant staghorn fern a perfect place for good picnic bonding with family or friends. There are opportunities to interact with llama, camels, miniature horses, ostriches,

greyhounds, Labrador retrievers or ride on a cart drawn by an albino carabao.

This had turned my world (especially intestines) upside down

Sky Ranch, Tagaytay had given me an

adventurous trip because of the mouth-

dropping yet exciting rides. I first rode

the Super Vikings, a big boat that swings from right to left, and it turned my intestines upside down but this released my tense in riding. I also tried almost all the thrilling rides and took a step of braveness to make my trip fun!

This is Malls or Restaurants for food:

It felt like paradise when I tasted the different delicious food and deserts in Twin Lakes, Tagaytay ! This is the country’s first and vineyard and resort housing different restaurants and its really amazing because it looks like an apartment of different famous reastaurants like Starbucks, Bag of Beans, Bagoong Club and etc.

Welcome shopaholics!

Serin Ayala Mall is a very nice place to shop and eat delicious food. The structure of the mall looks like The District in Imus, but it resembles some likeness of the Harbor Square, and the

grassy park like in Boni High Street. You can buy different pasalubong from here.

And now this is the best Good Hotels:

Hotel Kimberly is a place where we can rest and relax after our adventure. It has a good services and offers and good food for me and my family!

Taal Vista Hotel is the best place for unwiding and for having a sophisticated rest. This place had given me an elite feeling because of it’s real aura of elegance. The ambiance and the service

is very perfect that can release your stress!

Thankyou for taking the time to read my

travelogue. Enjoy your round trip. God’s speed!

Most of our last day of touring Iloilo was spent at Garin Farm, located in the municipality of San Joaquin. Aside from the pilgrim site, Garin Farm is also a fully functional farm, with livestock animals, breeding stations, and all that. I was expecting something similar to Baluarte in Ilocos Sur albeit more "farm" than "wild" but was told that the animals were not its highlight, and we already knew what to expect when we saw the Divine Mercy Cross on the hilltop as our cab approached the farm. 

Souvenir stores selling everything from delicacies to refrigerator magnets and key chains stood opposite the main entrance of the farm. My brother bought a fruit shake while we tasted the famous cream horn ( uggh it was sooooo good). Now that we had fed our bodies, it was time to feed our souls, as indicated on a sign in front of the pilgrimage's entrance of humility. 

Upon entering the gates, you will be walking under a vegetable tunnel passing by some farm animals like chicken layers, goat, ducks, goose, carabao, etc. Expect some foul odors due to the animal wastes, but it’s tolerable and bearable. Anyway, the walk will just take you minutes emerging to a structure they call “The Pavilion”. On this location, you can now have a view of the staircase to heaven. The ascent to the Divine Mercy Cross took more than 400 steps, but along the hike, we paused to check out the dioramas with Biblical scenes all the way from the Creation up to Christ's Ascension. It was a long flight of stairs and you can either choose to climb or ride the golf carts for a minimal fee. 

Holy week is fast approaching, and a last minute reflection would be a perfect start. I’m pretty sure all of us have imagined what it’s like up there at least once in our lives. Real or not, the idea of a place where there is only light and bliss, a place free of suffering and pain, and where angels sing a symphonic melody is probably every living soul’s ultimate dream. 

The reward for climbing the 456 steps was a glimpse of heaven: a narrow dark tunnel at the top, beneath the Divine Mercy Cross, leads the "penitent" to an all-white diorama of what heaven might look like. The rays of the noontime sun were blinding but that made the experience even more authentic. I saw the Virgin Mary, St John the Baptist, Moses, Elijah, and, of course, St. Peter among the angels. The Lord Jesus sits on a throne in front and above everyone else. The place still might be a far cry from the real thing but I reckon the brain behind it is a genius. I admire the imagination.

It was a great place to disconnect with the buys city life and reconnect with the nature and with God, especially on the side where you breathe the fresh air and  can clearly see the doves flying across the seascape.

BBC - Travel - Ube: The Filipino tuber taking over the world

BBC – Travel – Ube: The Filipino tuber taking over the world

The seller pointed to the large canisters sitting on his vibrantly painted cart and asked me my flavour preference. On that humid afternoon in Manila, nothing sounded better than a heaping bowl of sorbetes, a variety of Filipino ice cream traditionally made with creamy milk from the carabao, a species of water buffalo. But while I had originally been allured by the thought of refreshing mango, I…

Living Differently in Our Society

Living Differently in Our Society

Photos can capture places, subjects, and basically anything you could lay your eyes on. What people don’t know is that photographs can not only capture objects, they can also capture moments, stories, mood, adventures, and feelings. We are all a different individual created to be precisely that, we all have different interpretations and different opinions about how we view the world. However, feeling a picture is entirely different and somewhat unites us with our differences. In the Philippines, many people come from poverty and even though that may be an unfortunate, pitiful thing, not everyone feels as if they are living in poverty.

Introduction

Surely enough we don’t mean to imply that living in poverty isn’t considered as poor, of course they are considering numerous factors. In the United States, poverty is measured by comparing a person's or family's income to a set poverty threshold or minimum amount of income needed to cover basic needs. People whose income falls under their threshold are considered as “poor”. Many families are struggling to support themselves as well as their families. This also considering, financial support in education, daily living, and bills and taxes. We understand their situation and are deeply concerned for their well being. Especially now in our current state, it will become even harder for them to make a living because of ECQ. Being poor is definitely a very serious subject, however we wanted to highlight a different kind of perspective towards people living in poverty. What do we mean by this exactly? 

Poverty in Provincial Areas

The first five pictures depict how society or the rich, for that matter, sees poverty in provincial areas in the Philippines. A lot of people in the province still can't afford to buy the latest appliances and furniture because of poverty and/or simple life. That is why they still use these old, recycled and dispensable materials in their everyday living. For instance, the cart that the farmers use on farming. It is used as their mode of transportation going to their farm to carry their farm supplies. It is also used as a mode of transportation going to nearby places, to sell their products or to buy things they need. The cart is  being pulled by carabao. This is seen in places where roads are not suitable for other vehicles. Even though we already have highly developed vehicles or modes of transportation, the poorest sector still cannot afford to buy this and they still choose to use the carts pulled by carabaos. Another one is the use of what we call "kudkuran". It is used to grate or to separate the coconut from its shell. The coconut is used to produce coconut milk to be used in cooking rice cakes or "malagkit" or foods which use "gata" or coconut milk. This "kudkuran" is popular or widely used in barrios or far flung communities since there is no machine to be used on separating the coconut from its shell. Beds are made from bamboo since it is a cheaper material than those used in most modern beds. These beds cost cheaper and also can be given for free depending on the person making it. Nipa huts could also depict poverty in a sense that, because some can't afford to build concrete houses because of the high cost of materials, they opted for cheaper ones which use light materials like bamboo or “anahaw” or palm leaves. They also use these light materials for easy lifting in case they needed to relocate or move their  homes. Lastly, they have the "kalan" which uses wood for fuel to light up the fire and later on to cook their everyday meals. These items can be seen as “simple” or “poor” because the majority believes that being in the province is living in a poor, simple, and hard life. 

Poverty in the City

Being in the province gives a sense of simplicity and reality. Living in the provincial areas and being in these circumstances is not something to be embarrassed about nor feel pity for because not everyone lives the same way and believes in the same values. In a sense, it actually is quite liberating to be in their position; unlike the next set of pictures where living in main cities can feel quite lonely and trapped. We are living in modern world, unlike in the provincial areas; we get to enjoy the little conveniences of a comfy bed to sleep on, good cooking utensils for good food, TV’s and electronics, and a concrete house to live in; and yet we are able to feel empty regardless of these “little conveniences”. Despite of us having these advanced materials and supplies, we have this drive that wants us to have more or something to be happy for.

Poverty in our Homes

As contrast to the first five pictures, where it gives off natural sunlight and the outdoors, it gives off a mood of sadness and feeling of solitary. The first picture has a subject of a mother looking outside the window. The truth about that photo is about a mother feeling sad inside of her own home. My mother had been working for over 40 years and it came to a sudden halt when she retired. She was not like every other senior thinking that finally they could rest from all of this work, that they could finally enjoy the comfort of their own home. Looking back my mother did not enjoy the fact that she was about to retire, not one bit. As her 60th birthday came closer, she grew anxious and scared for that day. On her birthday she was distracted by the party they held for her. She was happy. I remember how devoted she was to working that, even after her retirement, she decided to work in a Mcdonald’s fast food restaurant with the help of Mayor Isko’s implementation of seniors working again. She was so happy. However recent events have made everyone who was working halted. She was at home feeling stuck and lost. She wanted to do something but couldn’t. She did every chore she could do inside of our home to keep her busy and she always played loud music from the radio to keep her mind at ease. What I couldn’t bear was her telling her own family that she was getting depressed inside of her house. I thought she was happy. That is what I mean when poverty can come from different things. Sometimes hard labour is what drives people to feel happy, like how my mother felt. As she sat by the window, I took a photo that said a thousand words.

Poverty within Ourselves

Moving on to the next photos comes a constant shot of grilled windows. The grills in the windows depict how we aren't able to live free from this reality. How we are trapped in our own houses without us realizing it. The photos try to focus on the outdoors, but essentially there is a fence/ grill that is stopping us from ever going outside. The shadows represent a person’s yearning to feel something more; to feel free from the daily repetition of short entertainments from phones or TV’s. The ladder gives a sign of hope that maybe we can free ourselves from this constant repetition. As we, in the city, begin to develop and become more and more advanced, we slowly lose ourselves through this evolution. As they grow “poor”, they become more and more complete and content with what they have, and as we watch yet another entertaining video from YouTube, we become more and more empty and lost from our true happiness.

To Conclude

We all live different lives because we are all different people. We wanted to share others' experiences as well as our own and we tried on reflecting on that experience. Others' happiness can differ from one’s own point of view. We tried to capture everyone's perspective, from the people living in provinces to the people living in the city; of how differently we could see their situation. Some live simply but happy and some may live having enough but wanting more. Happiness can come from material things, but true happiness comes from the people surrounding us; the people you work with, your friends, your family, and even yourself. So let’s stop bringing other people’s happiness down. 

To end the essay, here are two sayings from Nelson Mandela

“Overcoming poverty is not a task of charity, it is an act of justice. Poverty is not an accident. Like slavery and apartheid, it is man-made and can be removed by the actions of human beings.”

“No one is born hating another person because of the color of his skin, or his background, or hig religion. People must learn to hate , and if they can learn to hate, they can be taught to love, for love comes more naturally to the human heart than its opposite.”
