Miss Saging,
How nice of you to ask. I was born in Sariaya, Tayabas (now Quezon) but I grew up mainly in the Manila area and in Naga City, Camarines Sur. I have a very exciting introduction into the world (1943), but I would take a lot of
everyone's time if I were to get started. So, I'll just leave it at that.
Yes, I know that you are in Tacloban because Mr. Scot told me. I did warn him that if he intends to go there, that he should let me know so I can give him some guidance on how not to get enchanted by the lovely ladies there. That way he can be faithful to his one and only. After all, a certain beautiful First Lady, whose birthday(July 2) I share (not the year - she is 13 years older), was from that province.
What kinds of bananas does your Lolo (Grandpa) grow? I can only guess that some of them are the Lacatan, Latundan, Saba, and perhaps, Seņorita? And Bungulan, maybe? When I was growing up, my only Aunt was a banana wholesaler in Divisoria Market. She receives 2 shiploads of different kinds of bananas every Tuesday and
Friday nights. We get 3 tiklis (large bushels) of bananas every week - different kinds, though mostly Latundan (Apple banana). And once in a while, we would get a whole buwig (bunch) of Seņoritas. What a treat, huh?
Maybe, I'll accompany Mr. Scot when he goes there, so I can keep the Waray ladies away from him.
I am pleased to make your acquaintance.
Warm regards,
Chong
