High School Friends Get-Together: Jecyll's Bridal Shower

Get-togethers with my high school friends mean eating the same food and enjoying it! For some reason, my friends and I order or bring the same food and yet no one's complaining. Whether it's because we know already what we like or 'coz we only do pot lucks 1-3 times a year, it's been a tradition to ask each other to bring the same dish/dessert.

This one's a typical get-together with the purpose of throwing a bridal shower for our dear friend, Jecyll. The party host, Katsy, decided to combine Jecyll's high school and college barkadas. Of course, the more, the merrier!

Katsy decided to be the one to order the food though she asked me to bring the pasta that I always bring---a combination of Tita Macris and Tito Carl's Meat Sauce and Pesto Sauce on spaghetti noodles. :) Yum!

Katsy decided to order the usual food from Tita Lenn's in Pasig: mini siopao, mini rainbow pimiento sandwiches, mini bbq, mini burgers and frozen brazo de mercedes! She also added another favorite of the group---home made chicken cordon bleu!

 *sorry naman. the rainbow pimiento sandwich looks prettier in person. the camera was not able to capture its "cuteness" :p

Aside from the frozen brazo, Tina and Tasha brought other cakes! I thought we were gonna die (happy) from all the sugar!

 This one's from Banapple. Yes, that's chopped Reese's Peanut Cups on top of the cake.

This beauty is Tita Vilma Santos' Caramel Cake. This is soooooo yummy. It doesn't look so intimidating like the one from Banapple but the simplicity of this cake is what draws you to it. Who wouldn't want a corner piece to get more icing?

This one is the famous frozen brazo de mercedes from Tita Lenn's from Pasig. I don't really know if she already opened a shop. I just know that everything is home made and you have to contact her for your orders.

The one with the pink veil is the bride, Jecyll. Michelle and Karla are the ones wrapped in toilet paper.


 This is our charming table decor. It was conceptualized by our very creative friend and host, Katsy. Even the centerpiece was a family project. Her mom and sister were the ones who did the flower arrangement. My role: help Katsy place the stars and the burlap cloth in the center. Hehehe

This was before we parted ways. It was nice meeting her college barkada! :)

 And this is us...Tina, Andie, Michelle with Raeema, Jecyll, Katsy, Tasha and ME!

After all the major kwentuhans, fun games, food overload, I can definitely say that good food with GREAT company is the best!!!
