I tried every pastry at Segovia’s Cake & Recipes — here’s which one stole my heart (and why you need to try it this).

Mom Violy and Carmina attended the viewing of a family member who had passed away. During the reception, a relative mentioned there was food being served, and Leny told us someone had given them cheese mamon to try. Mom Violy brought up other bakeries, but Leny encouraged her to taste it and see what she thought. Leny gave us so many mamon to take home that the next day, Mom Violy asked Carmina to find out the bakery’s name. When Carmina messaged Leny, the names Mom Violy suggested didn’t seem quite right. Leny explained it was near Mom Violy’s home, which was true— Segovia's Cake & Recipes , located at 7 M.A. Reyes Street , Little Baguio , San Juan City, Philippines .

Filipino Spaghetti Recipe Living Abroad

Sometimes in life we are overwhelmed in what is happening in our surrounding. We don't realize what is just in front of us. Our mind tends to drift and realize there are a lot of people who care for us  They express themselves in a different way. Some people when they are stressing they tend to go toward food. I am sharing with you my home made recipes. Filipino Style Spaghetti: I was told by a close friend that there is certain tomato sauce that taste different from the Philippines and if you buy the same brand in the States. For instance in the Philippines I usually use Del Monte Original Tomato Sauce. I was told the Del Monte Tomato Sauce is sour rather than sweet. So, I was able to try the a different brand while I was vi siting my home town and found you can use S&W Tomato Sauce which can be brought at Costco. I was able to use 1 and a half cans. Only problem they carry it in a large size. So, you will have some left overs. Of course you can use th...
