My job and the working arrangement I’m privilege to have My two bois (Bibo & Pabu) who gives me headaches and happiness every single day He stayed late and we had coffee in Tagaytay to cap off the night. Gem from my PILTEA friends came also, I’m so thankful that he never forgets and always find time. Tho it’s hard to complete this group because two are always out of the country (missin’ my birthday were madam M, D3 & Henry). These are the friends I call my constants becos we go out a lot. Three from my GOTO Klab fam came (ok, they’re four becos Mayora is part of it na nga pala). My girlfriends from high school was complete, so it was like another mini-reunion for us. *Sansrival cake from Gay Vasquez (i’ll do a review of it next time, it’s highly recommended), Sansrival from Goldilocks sent by my team including the bouquet of roses, Luscious Caramel cake (Goldilocks din to) given by my hs girlfriends (LEARA).Ĭlassic Ube Cake of The Pastry Company from Rosette, Caramia’s Midnight Dream from my boss and last but not the least That Ooey Gooey Chocolate Cake from one of my agents. Pancit for long life, puto for purity, fish fingers for stability, balance and tranquility, beef biryani and butter chicken masala for differences and divergences, charcuterie for fascination and visual appeal, lechon to brightens the party and cakes (and sweets) to celebrate this milestone.

So, to make the party short and simple, I prepared a lunch spread that friends will talk for days which I think will produce feel-good chemicals like serotonin and dopamine, 😛 seriously tho I ordered my happy food because it’s my birthday! Coincidentally, a relative of ours was also celebrating a birthday (and baptismal of his grandchild) over lunch at Hotel M’s clubhouse so most of the relatives didn’t actually felt the social exclusion. Why? Because I don’t have the energy to entertain too many people at the same time and secondly, I don’t have the resources to invite too many so I think keeping a small guest list is best. Unlike in the past, my maternal family was always present during occasions, this time I chose to celebrate silently with my closest friends only. Since my birthday fell on a weekend I threw a small lunch party at home. If you have read my last year’s birthday post you’ll get what I mean. You may also order your favorite Goldilocks cakes atturned 49 two weeks ago and it feels surreal because I was able to tick off a thing on my last year’s bucket list.
