I needed to make sure the right pictures were selected. But, people, there were 14 cameras flashing, so I had to preview all of those to make sure that all 14 beauties are captured. Inspite of my current conditions, with the help of my bestfriend, Tylenol #3, it was an afternoon worth remembering. We laughed, we cried (well, mostly Caroline), we ate and we drank (non-alcoholic drinks, please, you wouldn’t find any pictures of us here hugging the seat inside a restroom, lol! I have seen enough pictures of those on line in the past few days!) As you can see all 14 of us aged gracefully.
And who can forget about the venue? Intramuros was the right choice. Kudos to the one who suggested that. Was it Myda or Myla? Not only were we able to reminisce about our high school days, the ambiance made us feel as if we were back home. Oh, how we miss it!!! The Owner/Manager Barry Picazo was so gracious. He gave us a tour of the entire place. The food was absolutely superb. We ordered Lumpianitas, Beef Ribs Nilaga, Kare-Kare, Crispy Binagoongan over Grilled Eggplant, Sizzling Pork Sisig and Pinakbet. But the dessert simply outstaged the Main Dishes. The presentation looked like it was up for judgement on Iron Chef. We had, Buko Con Seta, Tres Marias and Barako Crème Brulee. Oh my goodness….all to die for!!!! Don't you agree?
At the end of the day, we went on our own way, thinking, we did the right decision of getting together. It made us even more proud to be a Maryknoller!!!!.
Till next time my friends!!!
not only gracefully, but all of you, physically beautiful inspite age. thanks for posting, riz! make it to our 25th in manila pls!
ReplyDeleteI would love to, Tonette, but Mr. R and I are already scheduled to go to Rome this August, if my doctor clears me to do so. And if his schedule permits it, he wants to go to Paris as well. If My Doctor doesn't clear me, he will book a few days for us in NY. Maybe in 2011! Miss ya all!
