One of the places Cindy and I

usually stop by on our Friday Girls' Day Out deals is the Filipino Food Store in Abilene. This week, the ultimate, and I mean, ULTIMATE treasure they had in there were mangosteens. They were pretty pricey, and the box/carton they were in still had the "flown in via JAL" on it! But Ah... food from home...


The ones I bought somehow were missing the pretty petal looking thingies..



Also, a certain someone said that they weren't going near the "embryo" looking insides! HRMPHHH!!!

Another food I get there at times is Tau Sar Pia, a kind of pastry treat with red/green beans or lotus paste filling. Yummmm..


Oooo AND the second cattery is ready, and all the remaining cats have been transfered into it..Will post pictures in the next post once I get them organized :)
