LP8: The Round-Up!

Iska


In setting the theme for the 8th round of Lasang Pinoy, little did I know that not only we would be charmed by bulilits playing ‘kitchen’, amused ourselves with wonderful details of our own childhood and delight our souls with the revelation of each participant’s own journey through foodie life – as kids and with kids, but also be enthralled as most of the entries pay tribute to those who are responsible for our love and passion for cooking.

LP8 also marks the 1st time Lasang Pinoy goes on video!

Iska

As the youngest in the family, I was the last on the list to be asked by my mom to cook. I remember I wanted my folks to at least let me wash the rice before steaming.

Iska

Now that it’s going to be my turn to host Lasang Pinoy, I got so excited I couldn’t think of a theme! We finally came up with this wonderful topic about cooking with children. Kusinang bulilit, lutong paslit! (Children’s kitchen, cooking by children!) So what would this be all about? As I reflect on the subject and start to write about this announcement, I can hear my son here singing a line that goes like this…

Eating, eating, I like to eat!
It’s fun to cook and eat together!
