My family is quite picky when it comes to ulam and mostly they prefer local and traditional dishes like caldereta. But there’s also a part of us that loves pasta so much.

We also got a time slot when we should be accessing the link. Nice party favors sent by PR before the event. #GlobeHalloweenAtHome We...
