№ 64. Happy New Year, Again!
Yes, it's the Chinese Lunar New Year. Water Dragon.
I drenched the yard, garage and the garden and made sure all the pails, tabo (dipper) and jugs were filled to the brim. I turned on the lights just in case Wushu got lost.
Earlier, I also brought home goodies from San Fernando: macapuno tarts ("loco coco" tarts. Market Manila, the food blogger, says macapuno is a mutant coconut.), cashew boat tarts and puto paowow. We were hoping for more homegrown Pundaquit goods, but there were none. So we went to the Food Capital of the Philippines: Pampanga, which was on the way home. Luck was abundant.
That should be enough bait, right?
As a last siren call for the lost dragon, I banged the piano with a Rachmaninov and a Beethoven piece. On the brink at 11:59 PM.
Wushu, where art thou?
Bring more luck, will you.

№ 63. Happy New Year!
Ok, ok. This is rather late. Been slacking, busy and slacking back. There ought to be a better excuse.
Happy New Year!
Happy New Year!
