PFCDD is book of words


I spent more than half of my life doing this.
It's larger than life.
But life is short.

Written words will live forever.
And the words became book
and dwells among us.

Amen.

The Philippine Food, Cooking, and Dining Dictionary (PFCDD) is my first published book. It is published by the Anvil Publishing (Metro Manila). It won recognition as one of the Best Books on Food by the Gourmand Awards in Yangtai, China in May 2017.
