Chefie’s World

Finally, they have arrived, after many sleepless months, thinking and dreaming on what ever happened to my balikbayan boxes, it came in yesterday, April 14…my, my, my…..one of the boxes left November 21, 2009 the others a week after I left America. So what happened…well, they had a problem with shipping them before Christmas so it just stayed in New Jersey until first week of February, maybe nobody wanted to send it to America. Then upon arrival here first week of March, it had some more weeks in the Customs warehouse for another round of waiting due to some freight charges problem. My trainers who asked me to buy Al Pacino Scarface shoes and Puma slip ons waited so long for them as well as nephew, Eric for his Nike walking shoes. So here they are…sleepless nights yes, since it has a lot of pastry and baking books, some worth 300 dollars – classic no longer printed and the Spanish dessert books not available here – Torreblanca, Adria, Morato the latest books for desserts…then I have over 20 chocolate molds for a new business I will let you know about soon. Aside from my old clothes and underwear that still smells so good…sarap ng amoy ng galing US….amoy mabangon, one you can’t even describe…basta alam mo lang galing America. I have my old reliable Dr.Martens walking shoes there and my favourite wool sweater that I wear for winter or when it’s just too cold. The boxes came well sealed and nothing happened to them. Masaya na ako….I can sleep now….peacefully after I fix all of these abundance…
