Food vlogging

I used to blog about food and culture and a local daily even syndicated my posts. Now, I post on social media. But these are nothing like my previous blogs. I am trying to learn more about vlogging or video blogs.

Moving on...

After five years of not posting on this blog, I come back to say that in a month's time, all my self-hosted blogs will migrate to a new domain, to better manage them. For now, the food blog is presentable enough such that I can proceed working with the other one. 

 

Oh, I should mention that The Pilgrim's Pots and Pans has updated posts now. Not just cosmetic changes, you know!

Cats and Caboodles

Do visit my furry little pets on our cat blog! I'm running it with my friend Sandrine, another certified cat lover.

Lots of things happened!

If you're trying to find out what happened to Lasang Pinoy, do not despair. It's only on temporary hiatus brought about by several factors: the Asian earthquake that affected internet and phone lines, childbirth, unexpected travel, etc., etc.

We promise you, the hosts will be back soon!

Lasang Pinoy: A Year Old and More!

Lasang Pinoy is certainly going in the right direction - what we hoped for when we were brainstorming a Filipino food blogging event.

After a year, we've had a decent amount of media exposure (slowly but surely, we'd like to think), fantastic themes and ever gracious hosts, new blogs to explore and what have you!

Just a few days ago, Mike wrote about LP for a publication meant for the diplomatic community. Here's what he has to say:

"I wrote an article about Lasang Pinoy’s first anniversary that was published in What’s On & Expat [ page 3, 3-9 September 2006 issue, Vol. XXV No. 35 ].

“What’s On & Expat” is a weekly newspaper for expats in the Philippines and is circulated in major hotels, restaurants, and diplomatic missions."

I was interviewed, hehehe! An excerpt:

“Food blogging will never be the same now that we have ‘Lasang Pinoy.’ Personally, my main reason for writing about hometown food was for my younger relatives abroad who know and eat the food but somehow were disconnected from its origins. I try to research about it to make them better appreciate the food and the culture behind it. In the process, I learn so much myself and this has made me more aware and proud of our culture. We are in search of our identity and if food be the way to finding it, then by all means let’s plunge into the water feet first.” [ LOL! ]

Thanks Mike!
