Linggo ng Wika

This is Sofia's Filipiniana costume for her school's celebration of 'Linggo ng Wika' today. We bought this yesterday at a barong store in Farmers' Plaza, Cubao, for PhP350, plus PhP40 for the abaka slippers. Mahal ha! :D I took her photos last night because I have work today and there is no special program or anything at school for the parents, and so I really have no chance to see Sofia in her costume today.

Sofia was also asked to bring Filipino food that she has to share with a classmate, and so we bought a box (6 pcs.) of 'bibingka' at Bibingkabon in Shopwise Araneta for PhP120. By the way, you should try the bibingka, it's yummy! My daughters' favorite is Ube flavor!

So how much was the total damage? PhP510! That's exclusive of gas and stress from last minute shopping. :D Sofia's smiling face while she was trying on her costume, however, was priceless! :)
