Thanks Vhiel for this tag.
My Little One has no favorite toy in particular but he loves stuff toys. He has his own collection. For this tag, I'd like to share my baby's favorite pillow, named "Hunnie". It's his best buddy after losing his "teta", that's his pacifier, when he was 2 yrs old. Ever since then, it's his companion where ever he goes, specially during sleep time. Actually, the said pillow was mine. I had it since I was 4 years old! yup, that old! Hehe (",) Back then, it was a huge pillow, it is made of cotton. Now, it looks like a pouch with a knot at one end.
I am passing the tag to Butchay, Juliana, Emz, Yen, Eds, Pinaymama and Anne.
Here are the rules:
Post a photo of your baby with her/his first ever favorite/comfort toy. Write some details of your fondest memory of your baby and her toy (like what I did below). This will make a good memento when your baby grows up! Lastly, don’t forget to add the link to your
website's at the end of the page. I’m sure many moms would love to see your sites, too!

Starting from top to down, from left to right; water, tql (that's me), tin, glx, mac and s2pid. Maybe your wondering why the weird names... it's our callsign and handle!
Last night, I went out with my friends from my radio years. We call our group, Tropang Mcdo. Back then, more than a decade ago, we used to meet at Mc Donald's, that's why the name. It's kinda like a farewell party for Jojo and Jayson and also, our annual reunion. They are both leaving the country for work. Jo is going to Singapore while Jayson will go back again to India. We had a blast at Pier One, a bar and grill restaurant.

Avocados are in season again, this is one famous recipe here in our household using avocados. My mom used to make it when we were little kids, my brothers and I. Even H love this recipe. It's like soft ice cream with chunks in it.... yummy!!!
Good for 2-4 servings
Ingredients:
- 2 medium pcs avocado
- 3 tbsps white sugar
- 1 small can (158 ml) evaporated milk
Procedure:Vertically open the avocado. Remove the seed. Scoop out the avocado meat using a spoon. Remove fibers if there's any. Mash it lightly, I like mine with some chunks of avocado. Add in the sugar and evaporated milk. Mix gently until well-incorporated.
Chill for a few hours before serving.

Everytime we passed by Bread Talk. We're always full to try their breads. But last Saturday was a different story, though, we just had our lunch at Pho Hoa Noodle House (I'll post all about this resto later). The husband still wanted to eat something and me too. So, for the first time we did try the products of Bread Talk and it was very satisfying and delicious. Even my little one liked it! For sure, we'll be back for more. We still got a lot of their breads to try!
