It’s not often we get to spend time with relatives visiting from the Philippines for a family member’s wedding. Carmina's father was getting married in Tacloban , and everyone flew miles to attend the big day.

How do you cook your broccoli?
Yesterday, I asked Manang V how she cooks her broccoli. Manang V said she cooks it with other vegetables the chop suey or beef with broccoli.
Manang V asked me why I had told her I had purchase some broccoli but wanted to try something new to eat it.
I asked my friend how do you cook your broccoli? My friend said, oh I just steam it up and eat it plain or add cheddar cheese.
I decided to cook it somewhere not even close to what Manang V and my friend had told me how they eat their broccoli.
