A Short Visit from Igsoon Ceding Braceros

Yesterday, Igsoon Ceding Braceros ( Mercedes) dropped by for a short visit along with her two daughters, Christine and Eileen.  I have not seen Igsoon for more than a decade, so Macrine and I were very delighted and happy to see her with her two adult daughters.

Igsoon Ceding is also originally from Iloilo( my province of birth). She used to visit us( during her teenager years) in my parents home in Barotac Viejo, Iloilo.

Visit with Mama Pacing

She is about the same age as my  younger sister Myrla (Nen) Hilaga.

The three were on their way to attend a wedding of the son of Eileen' friend here in Sacramento. They came  from San Jose about a 2 hours drive.

I served them homemade soup that I prepared  the day before. It is my own creation- fresh sweet corn with artificial lobster and crab meat. My recipe is similar to the recipe in this site.

I received a compliment for my cooking from Christine when she said it taste better than the food served in  fancy restaurants.   The three stayed only for a couple hours as the wedding invitation was at 3:30PM. They arrived around 1:15PM .

Macrine and I are looking forward for their next visit.
