Shameless Plugs Three (Business and Lingkod)

A time to make good use of this blogspace.

1. My Ilongga lawyer-friend-Lingkod-sister (the list would be too long if I mention all her links to me) Karreen Ballesteros is opening a stall for their famous Napoleones,the custard-filled flaky pastry with a sugar glaze that their family restaurant/bakeshop, Roli's, sells in Bacolod. It was sold in UP CASAA around the late '80's to early '90's and many UP Diliman freshmen would recognize it. The stall is located at the basement of SM Megamall Bldg. A, in front of Watson's. Great for gift-giving especially for Valentine's Day! :)

2. Steaks from Australia - T-bone, ribeye, etc. - are being sold for half their price at the local delis. Available once a week, you may email your orders through lau_one@yahoo.com and I'll be sure to forward them to distributors Martha and BJ Sazon, my friends since 1984! They're pre-seasoned and highly recommended! This isn't because they fed me for free last Christmas season.

3. Ang Lingkod ng Panginoon-Quezon City is starting to help out Anawim, a home of 55 abandoned elderly plus a few orphans and physically and mentally handicapped persons. Below is the e-mail of Imee Sioco, the one in charge of Lingkod QC's Works of Mercy. If you would like to donate or help out, please e-mail me at lau_one@yahoo.com. Thank you in advance!
