Because Everything Is Blog Worthy

A response to my email.

Hi Wayne,

Just wear something casual and there's no need to RSVP...so c'mon over. But since you've contacted us, I'll look for you.

We will have a sign up sheet available at the Merienda for those interested in the mentorship program.

Looks like I'll be attending the merienda ("a light, late-afternoon Filipino feast) in my softball attire.

P.S.: A little humor for those who know about filipinos. When googling for a definition of merienda, I came across this

a book critic had upbraided her for failing to translate "merienda" in her first novel, "Dogeaters."
