Dear Girlie,
It was a blast meeting you yesterday! I was worried you wouldn’t be able to get to Podium because of the rain, but you made it. Yey! Let me tell you that I enjoyed our tea conversation a lot. It was surprising how much we had in common (Narry a tinsel in our tree! Wait, narry a tree! 
). You are super nice! Talks over tea are the best, and I was happy to have shared that moment with a new friend!
Lunch was also terrific as we met up with Tito Rolly, Marie and Girlie. I think the stars of the show were our delightful food companions — Kare-Kare, Lechon Kalawi, Bistek Tagalog, Nilagang Baka and Garlic Rice. Sarap! Okay lang mag-indulge. You’re on vacation!
I hope that you enjoy the rest of your Manila visit. While the rain is a bummer, I don’t think it’ll dampen your spirits. Take care! Till we see each other again.
Cheers,
Toni
Hi! I'm Toni Tiu,
and I've been blogging at
at Wifely Steps since 2003. This started as a blog to help newly weds adjust to married life. It has evolved into a home and parenting blog. I write about things close to my heart -- good eats, good reads, family, marriage, and the little things that make everyday happy.
