WORDFUL WEDNESDAY

We went to a birthday party this past Sunday, and let me tell you, they had a massive spread!! They had every imaginable Filipino (homemade) dish you could think of, and I think we were all salivating! A bunch of us went straight over there after church, so our tummy's were all ready for lunch!

So, with the variety of dishes and desserts, I shouldn't have been surprised they had this on the kitchen table! I wish I had brought my camera, but my cell had to do!

Now, these people know how to PARTAY!!!!! I think this was bigger than the 3 year old who was having the birthday!

  21. Hi Alicia,

    Wow! Something about that makes me shiver. I prefer my food without the head still attached. All the same, it is an interesting photo, and don’t we live in an amazing age…cell phones with cameras…how do you suppose they will top that? Oh, I know it is nothing NEW, but just thinking about how things continue to change is a remarkable. Think of the computers of the 80s with no pictures, and now look what we have. Will things continue to change at the rate they are changing now…and if so…what next?

    ♥Hope

  30. Oh wow, they're serious about this, aren't they? Looks like they caught the pig and stuck him on the "barbie"!! But he is missing the apple in his mouth....isn't he??

  33. We did a pig roast recently too, as you may remember, but no head. I can live without the head sitting there.

    Otherwise, the spread looks divine.

    Alicia, no head, ok?
