The school celebrated the Nutrition Month last July 28  and the highlight was a pageant with the candidates wearing  a costume with vegetables as part of the design. How did they  do it,  you may ask, well no answer is clear enough but the picture will tell  us of the wonder of it all.

JENNIE MARIE REGALADO CERDANA CELEBRATES BIRTHDAY

  The Regalado's is one of my extended families. So when Jen Rex the eldest son of Rex and Jennie Marie  informed me  that her mom will celebrate her birthday (that was July 5) I readily agreed and bundled myself to their new residence at the Lessandra Subdivision.  I'm so  happy that Jennie's siblings were there, yes, they were still kids during my stint  in  the Regalado's business. Their parents Manong Teroy and Manang Masing Regalado  then was into Jukebox business, their  Millies Barquillos was a popular  pasalubong during those days and their restaurant  JENNIE-ROSE enjoyed a jam-packed crowd every minute, every hour.
        With Jennie, Rose Al, and Phillip, we posed for some pictorials which I should say is a must, after several decades, of not seeing them. All of them have families of their own now. Sad to say that I was not able to wait  for Inday Millie and Neneng Arlene and of course Stela,  coz  I had to leave early for some appointments. I had taken shots of their new home  and some interiors, the enhancement  was done by Rex himself.
        Rex and Jennie Marie Cerdana is into Air-Con Installation business and others related to that. Their good works  speak of customers in queue for their services. JENNIE, HAPPY BIRTHDAY!

PJ Aranador's Philanthropic Enterprise

PJ Aranador, the pride of the Ilonggos where fashion and creative designs are concerned, has an avocation  so noble that  caught our attention. He is the wonderful person behind the colorful square baskets featured here. 

He teaches the young students of ESCUELA , the making of  the square basket.  It  is made of fine handwoven bamboo strips. The process is quite intricate, from gusset to twining the corners, creating the spokes, upsetting the corners, weaving the side rows, splicing and finishing, cutting and tucking, rimming and finally lashing. He stressed further  that he is not into  perfection, but charm. Then refining the product as it  progresses. 
As  a clincher,  PJ says, "sure we will move on to more demanding designs on round basket. I'm so happy for these kids spending their time on crafts. I guess I am cloning myself on them to be a future craft- teacher too!"
