Jody’s Christmas Gift Suggestions

Let’s have food this time.  And I always recommend this:


Goodies from Becky’s Kitchen

It was actually the husband who introduced me to Becky’s Kitchen when he was still courting me.  He always brought me the walnut fudge brownies.  Being a La Sallian himself, he swore about the goodness of all baked goodies from Becky’s Kitchen.  Since then, I have always craved for their super moist brownies!  love it!

They are starting to accept orders by November 15 and you will be suprised how many are placing their orders early.  I remember 3 years ago when we tried to order from them like 2nd week of December, they can no longer accept it since they were fully booked already.  They have wide selection of goodies to choose from and they even have christmas packaging available. 

They have variety of baked goodies to choose from.  My favorite is their walnut fudge brownies.  Half box is at Php145 and Whole Box is Php270.
