La Cuisine de Jepoi

This was taken during my parents' wedding. This was in June of 1982. This is taken in my lola's house (my mother's mother). They seem pretty excited and happy don't you think? This house no longer looks like this. It was rebuilt because of flooding and other natural causes, wear and tear, decay what have you. I don't know who the other three people in the picture are.

What in the world? I'm not even included here. This was taken six years ago, when my uncle (Uncle Ting) and his family immigrated to Winnipeg. This was taken at the parking area of NAIA. Dunno which one specifically. I'm not here again. Maybe I was the one taking the picture.

Again, I'm not included, I really think I took this one. My parents are here and so is my aunt and my cousins. Whose blog is this supposed to be? No pictures of me again. This was taken at my uncle's house, this was their despedida party.

Aha! There I am. This was taken around 1986 I think. This is our terrace, and like what Rex Navarrete said in one of his sketches, the Filipino house is impenetrable because of broken glass incorporated in the fence. The things that reflect light in our fence are pieces of broken glass.

This was taken August '86. I think it's around Ninoy's third death anniversary. As you can seem i'm sporting the Laban sign, popularized by our then President Cory, who got the presidency only because he was Ninoy's widow. See we have a black and white tv, which uses a dial to change channels. [reminiscing] Life was so simple back then. No cellphones. No internet. I had no problems whatsoever. I had no issues. [/reminiscing] I'll add more next time =)
