Your meal sounds fine with me. All I made was chicken. My daughter made a bunch of large quantities of food. It's a good arrangement. She made some biko - a Filipino dessert. It's made with sweet rice, coconut milk, and brown sugar. Hopefully, she'll make more Filipino desserts in the future.

I saw "Run Lola Run" before but I don't remember what happens in the end. I'll have to watch it again, as well as "The Princess and the Warrior."
