Wordless Wednesday – Halo-halo

Tuesday, March 25th, 2008

halo-halo

Not so wordless afterall…
It is terribly hot these days. Taking a bath became 3 times a day now. We don’t use the aircon during daytime. We use three electric fans instead. But summer is a season that I love the most. Vacation time, going to the beach, out-of-town trips… there are just so many things to do! And the one of the best things this season… halo-halo!

Halo-halo (from Tagalog halo, “mix”) is a popular Filipino dessert that is a mixture of shaved ice and milk to which are added various boiled sweet beans and fruits, and served cold in a tall glass or bowl. My favorite fruit included is banana. And lots and lots of milk and vanilla ice cream on top :)

Want one?
