hi peachy! at last, meron nang post (he-he). didn't know that you guys will be away for a vacation. nalungkot nga ako akala ko you stopped making videos altogether. everyday i check this favorite cooking website of mine. i even double-check YouTube for any new videos. imagine my surprise today when i check your website: napa-palakpak pa nga ako (walang biro... hehehe!) i just love your cooking because they are all kitchen tested by you and your husband. at higit sa lahat: VERY DELICIOUS!!! so far i have tried the following recipes: pinakbet, sweet and sour fish fillet, peachy's fish soup, pork menudo, humba, szechuan eggplant, and eggplant tofu. all of these are rated excellent by my husband who's also a foreigner (he's an american). i even recommended your website to my mother who lives naman in australia. she tried the szechuan recipe and they loved it there, too. tonight i will cook Pork Afritada (yung version mo, siyempre). sa totoo lang, i prefer using your versions of the recipes kasi the outcome is just right. unlike other recipes na pag sinundan mo e hindi masarap ang kinakalabasan. if there's one word that i can use to describe your cooking, it would be PERFECTION (walang bola yan, ha!) => naka- line up na ang iba pang recipe na iluluto ko from your website: lasagna and the bechamel sauce, and vegetable spring rolls. o siya, napadaldal na naman ako nang marami. God bless to you and Davide. more power to both of you, and keep on cooking, shooting videos and making lots of people happy!!! brenda (USA) p.s. you mentioned in one of your videos that you need a sifter for flour... maraming available na ganun dito and they are so easy to use. mura pa... parang wala pang $10 yun dito. would like to send you one as my way of saying thank you (or kung malapit na ang birthday mo, e di b-day present na rin => ). do you have a PO Box where i can send it?
