I hope you had a happy Mother’s Day yesterday. 🙂 I drove out to my parents’ house in the East Bay, and then we all went out and got Chinese for lunch.
That picture up there at the top is what we had for dessert back at the house. It’s called halo-halo, a Filipino ice cream dessert.

Sunny says
LOTUS ROOT!!! I love that thing so much I can gobble a whole lot down in one go!
You and your mama look so adorable!!! How does she wear that colorful palette?
Carina says
Both of you are beautiful. 🙂 Agh, I recently discovered the awesomeness that is lotus root, and ah. <3
Verena T. says
Ohhh Halo Halo! Masarap! I love it!
Your mom looks beautiful, so nice that you two had a fun day together!
Divya says
Both of you look adorable! Your mum is beautiful! All mums are! She has quite a stash, not a surprise considering she is your mum!! 😀
Katie says
What an adorable duo. Did Tabs do anything special for you on Mother’s Day?
And that purple is FABULOUS. Blurples are my favorite kind of purple. I need a lippie in that shade stat.

Chris25 says
Omigosh, those dishes look scrumptious!
Charisma says
I missed home! Waaahhh! I love the Ube Ice cream on top of the Halo Halo. I love the tapioca pearls, shredded coconut, jackfruit, caramelized bananas, mango, Nata de Coco, sweet black beans and everything else under the sun. Yum!
Kiss & Make-up says
Food, make-up and family, the best combination! 😀
The Girl says
Mmm halo-halo! It is so freaking hot in SF right now I want one STAT!
Chelsea says
The lotus root dish kind of creeps me out (I hate clusters of holes like that… creepy!) but I want to eat the Halo Halo because that purple color is INTENSE. I love it!
Your mom’s adorable, I love her funny face with you! I haven’t seen my mom yet for Mother’s Day, but I’ll be picking up a new bottle of Chanel for her before I see her 🙂
Karen says
I get what you mean. I feel the same way when I see some clusters with holes that are really close…BLECH!
So, I think you would love the purple ice cream. It’s ube, which is a root, and it’s very sweet. I’m actually craving this dessert right now, om nom nom.
Which scent are you getting your mom? No. 5?
Chelsea says
Yup! Mom wears very little makeup, is not into skincare or anything, but loves Chanel No. 5.
Karen says
Mine is the same way. Does she like the original? I gave my mom Eau Premiere for her birthday and she liked it.
Chelsea says
Yup, I usually buy her the EDP, but I was thinking of getting her the Eau Premiere.

Deep fried lotus root chips are one of the foods of the gods, I am convinced 😀

Iris says
