Project 100 Days: Sundays with Cousins

The Abellas
With my Cousins

Came home a few minutes ago and rushing to publish this before it turns midnight. That’s around 15 minutes left.

I spent the entire day, as I do most Sundays, with my relatives. We had lunch at our aunt’s house. And just like mot Sundays, we had lechon. We have that like once a month. Nom nom…

We also had lots of other great food. Usually, my aunts or some of my cousins (or I) would cook food or bake some sweets for Sunday lunch. But today, most of the food in the lunch spread was bought. But they were all as delicious as our own cooking.

After lunch, we spent around 3 hours just sitting around the table, eating whatever was still on the table while watching the local noontime variety show and gossiping about celebrities and random people. LOL!

Some of my cousins (obviously me not included) spent time playing with our uber hyper pamangkins.

We then went over to a local milk tea shop. It has been our sort of ritual for some time now that we would have some milk tea on Sundays. Our current favorite is Sencha Milk Tea Place where we had milk tea and some Takoyaki.

After hanging out at the milk tea place while gossiping yet again and catching up with each other, we decided to take a stroll at the mall. Where I and some cousins ended up buying some stuff. I bought a pink rose ring. 🙂

When time came for dinner, we decided to head to Cafe Demitasse for some dinner and their famous banoffee pie. Obviously, we spent even more time gossiping and catching up with a second degree cousin until we were all tired and sleepy.

Sundays has always been like this. Lunch while gossiping and watching a variety show. Milk tea. A bit of shopping. Sometimes, a movie. Dinner. Coffee and desserts. I bet the baristas at the other coffee shop which we also frequent are wondering why we didn’t go there tonight.

This is what I miss when I’m out of town. Food and gossip with my cousins. Haha! I wonder where we’ll eat dinner next week? Maybe we’ll cook? Looking forward to it.
