another Pinay at OBAMA's inaugural......

___________________________

Since there is nothing much to write about my sedate life,
just wanna share the news I saw in yahoo the other day.
I can't remember how many times I had praised Charice in
my blog, and I will not get tired of doing so. To my delight,
and I'm sure, to the delight of the nation, she will
perform for no less than OBAMA this time around. whew!!!

On top of that, another Filipina will be present. This sure is
a great pride to us Pinoys.

___________________________

Besides Charice who is performing at the pre-inaugural ball for Barack Obama in Washington, D.C., presumably on Jan. 18, there’s another Filipino in the event and she’s none other than Cristeta Comerford who has been retained as executive chef of the White House.

That's Cristeta proudly standing at the center.

I have to admit I was unaware that the White House Executive Chef as of 2005
was Filipino. This sure is no easy responsibility.Just when I am about to lose faith in our own cuisine and our ability to improve it and make it evolve into something universal. While this maybe a different matter, the news really gives a glimmer of hope. Thanks you guys.

    Cristeta's appointment in the white house kitchen was big news here before... di mo nabalitaan yun?

    oh well, nice to know there's still Pinoys to be proud of other than that boxer...

    apart from her, may isang pinoy student na manggagaling dito sa pinas na dadalo rin sa inaugural. His name is paul michael thomas cruz.

    tapos meron pa ring isang pinay, who is now studying in the US na dadalo rin. Her name is abbey manliclic

    Wow, I just read the news of a Filipino student named Paul Michael Cruz that he also received a mail from Obama to attend the inauguration.

    I remember the Filipina Chef way back... She really makes her country so proud.

    Couldn't agree more to Denis, again, Kudos to Filipinos!
