My New Year's Eve Brunch

My pre-New Year brunch this morning, a synchronized celebration with New Year's eve, Philippine time. A cup of Tsokolate-eh (thick chocolate 
made of Batangas tablea balls) with pinipig and a plateful of leftover caldereta, scrambled eggs, potato salad and rice. This is a spread of post-holiday comfort food I grew up having. We really grow more sentimental and nostalgic as we get older, especially if we are far away from the land that our hearts first called "HOME".
