      Lasang Pinoy 25: Make Your Own Bento

      Annalyn, host of this month's event says:

      "My most recent post on the bento inspired me to host this April’s themed Filipino food blogging event Lasang Pinoy. It has been quite a while indeed … Lasang Pinoy is already on its 25th round-up, a silver celebration if you wish."

      "It is for this reason that I am inviting all Filipino bloggers and readers to participate in my merry theme entitled Make Your Own Bento. ‘Make Your Own Lunchbox or Baon’ if you like, just as long as it depicts a combination of Filipino food that closely resembles a Japanese bento - the healthier and more creative, the better."

    In 1807, the people of Piddig (in Ilocos Norte) rose in revolt against the oppressive tax measures being imposed by the Spanish colonial government, particularly on the production of basi — the sugarcane wine much-loved by Ilocanos.
    It was a grievance that has been festering since 1782 when the first revolt occurred against the tobacco and […]

    “Pafi, have you had an ‘Assumption tart’ before?” was Michelle’s question from out of the blue while we were seriously contemplating about some serious thing last week. I just gave her a stoic look. Then we both broke into raucous laughter that sent us almost rolling on the floor.
