My entry for Weekly Photo Challenge: Surprise.
Looking back on my birthday last June, I remember how they surprised me with a cake! I normally don’t celebrate my day ‘coz I already stopped counting my age ;). We just bought “pancit palabok” and roasted chicken for lunch. Suddenly, while singing “happy birthday”, my aunt came out from the back with the chocolate cake. Wow, felt really special and the cake, it’s really delicious!
The three kids went crazy over it. See the first picture, they started licking the cake. Hahaha. Who would also forget, they were the ones who blew the candle. hahaha.
Pancit Palabok by the way is a Filipino Rice Noodle dish with shrimp sauce topped with boiled egg, cooked shrimp and squid, boiled pork, crushed chicharon, tofu, scallions, and fried garlic.. I encourage you to try it.

2012 is almost about to end. Isn’t it great to look back at the blessings we received this year? Not to mention, we survived ‘dooms’ day. Yes!
Have a great weekend and Happy Holidays!
