Espie Diosay's Delicious and Affordable Kakanin

A party is boring with out kakanin, do you agree? It adds color and shape to the table setting and it is tasty and very easy to make if you had resources. And if you would rather order it from a seller, it is very affordable. 

When I shop at any Filipino store here in US, kakanin is the first thing I would look for. My favorite kakanin is puto cheese, what's yours?

During my Mom's 70th birthday last June, I ordered kakanin from my very good friend Espie. She used to be the Barangay Treasurer of Barangay San Isidro. She had moved to Barangay Karaos for quite a while now which used to be a part of San Isidro. 

I haven't tasted her products yet as I am not in the Philippines right now but my family said that her kakanin was really yummy! And I trust the judgement of my family, hehehe! I cannot wait to go home to order some for myself, hopefully soon.

Photos below are grabbed from her  FB Account.

Deliciousness overload, yeah?

Look at the Ibos! Oh so pretty and inviting!

Mouthwatering!

This will serve a lot of people already, ain't it?

If you lived abroad and wanted to buy for your loved ones in San Francisco, Agusan del Sur, send her a personal message and you can pay her thru G-cash.

Dara's Pastries

I always try to support locals, especially the people I love, friends and neighbors in their businesses so when I learned that Dara is selling sweet delights like cakes, cupcakes, coconut macaroons and what not, I did not have second thoughts to support her.
 

I have known Dara since she was born because her parents are very close family friends. I remember when she just learned how to walk she can dance gracefully already and had been a part of every barangay activity (dance intermission numbers) during her childhood and everyone loved her performance! I never thought that she would become a baker because she is more of a performer and considering her mom can only make puto cheese (haha!) and I remember, I even have borrowed her steamer many times way back then because I couldn't afford one, (Thank you ate Libeth!), so I kinda really wonder where did Dara get her talent in baking! Just kidding :)
 

To continue, I have ordered cakes from her more than couple times already for my family and they said Dara's cakes are super delicious! I haven't tasted her cakes yet because I am out of the country, hopefully, soon I could have a bite or two, hmm.. maybe a slice or two.

Dara's Pastries bakes mostly custom cakes which is really interesting. You just send photo of the cake you want and she will make it for you perfectly. Or, you can ask her to show her available theme designs, for example, children's birthday cake for boys or for girls, debut, 50th or 70th birthday, etc. Or just visit her page to choose your cake design.

If you did not live in San Francisco, Agusan del Sur or if you were out of the country like me and you want to surprise someone for celebrating whatever occasion or you just want to send a cake gift "just because", you can just shoot her a message on her page and tell her what you want and send your payment thru G-cash, which I also used to pay her. I am not sure if she would deliver because she is a busy mom of 4 cute kids so I think she only offers pick-ups.
 

Below are the grabbed photos of her creations from her page for your reference.

Daddy'$ Millionaire Dog$

As per pictures below, I am not talking about my dogs Buchoy and Luna. No, their Dad is not a millionaire, he is rich though... Rich is his name, not millionaire... just Rich, Lol!

This post is about the dogs of my friend at work. I call him Mr. Clyde. Let me tell you about him first. He has been in Round Mountain Gold Corporation for 35 years. Yep, 35 years. Being in the company that long made him a millionaire. His 401 K alone has more than a million already plus his savings and other investments which I am pretty sure are hefty too (he has no vices except shopping on Amazon).

He is single, never been married and no kids but he has 2 lucky dogs that he calls "my kids". We never hang out outside work but I can tell that he is a nice person. I did not get to know more about him until I moved to the side of his Crew when I got a Day Tech position. I remember though at one time, he took time off from work when his first dog passed away. And honestly, I was like, "I am very sorry for his loss but taking a week off for that reason is I think too much". I did not have pets at that time so I could not relate.

He was sad and lonely until three people very close to him at work (one of them is Ms. Shona who influenced me to get Buchoy and Luna) planned something to make him happy again. They got him a skin and bone stray dog wandering around Ms. Shona's ranch. They made it appear like, "someone dropped off the dog in his home" incident.

He accepted and loved the dog and named him Buster who live up to his name because he would bust everything when Mr. Clyde is not around. 

Few months later, he rescued a dog from a shelter and he named him Homie, and contrary to Buster, he doesn't live up to his name because he tried to leave home one day as Mr. Clyde caught him inside the UPS truck with paws upon the steering wheel, Lol!

Buster and Homie are spoiled. They are fed with steak, roast beef and other good stuff. They get gifts for their birthdays, Halloween and Christmas. They are both living a great life with Mr. Clyde.

Last month, we were talking about dependents of our benefits at work, Family Trust,Will and Testament and others for that matter. I shared that my husband and I just got done with our Family Trust in case something happens to both us at the same time.

I asked Mr. Clyde who are his beneficiaries of his millions and he said, "My dogs. Whoever will take them will have my millions". I thought he was just kidding me but he was not. He added, it was the first dog who passed away was the original beneficiary. I was shocked for a moment. Though I have heard or read stories similar like this, never in my wildest dreams that I could encounter as such in person.

Buster, the skin and bone stray dog and Homie, the rescue dog, are Daddy'$ Millionaire Dog$!

How lucky are they!
