It's terribly cold to go out during the night here and more so going out in the wee hours of the morning. Overnight temperatures go as low as -20C. If one does not have a car for transportation and will rely on some amount of walking to the church, they will be exposed too long to cold. Selling those delicacies outside is really out of the question .... unfortunately. Good thing I have those memories of our simbang gabi tucked in my mind and your pictures that envokes those memories out. I hope someday my two children will experience the simbang gabi.

I found this guy who makes all these Kakanin in LA. He only caters and makes evrything fresh. He grinds his own galapong and even grows his own bamaboo for puto bumbong. Man his stuff are good. if you need to see a picture of his bilao with kakanin, Ican send it. I think his logo is Kakanin sa bahay Kubo. I made some taste test and got some kakanin from Seafood City and man it was not that great compared to what he made. Plus his price is very reasonable. he just works on small clients and does not want to mass produce. he said it can get sloppy. he preffers the true blue Pinoy style of preparing kakanin.

You have shown a tradition in our country that is worth keeping. Simbang gabi or misa de gallo was started during the Spanish era by the friars to "influence" their flock to still hear mass before going to the rice fields and work all day. What started as a force action became a tradition in our country and now even in the rest of the world. Merry Christmas, Estan! A prosperous new year ahead! Ginutom ako sa succeeding pix. hehehehe!!!
