Applying for Marriage License @ Caloocan City Hall

Eto siguro un most unexpected day namin... We have a family friend working in Caloocan City hall. Called her days before, kung ano yung mga requirement na kailangan for the license. She replied through text the next day:

Requirements for Marriage Licence..

1. Cedula,

2. Birth Certificate (photocopy will do); and

3. Certificate of attendance to the Family Planning/Marriage Seminar.

First thing we did was to acquire cedula... and NO pila at all!!! Got our cedula agad!! Tinanong lang ng cashier kung ano ang purpose ng pagkuha ng cedula, hiningan kami ng P20, (P10/each) then, un na!!! may cedula na kami... (nakapagtataka lang un nakalagay sa cedula we paid P6 total amount)

Next, Fill up the Application form for Marriage License sa Civil Registry Department (CRD).. again NO PILA!! Filled up the form twice pa nga (while H2b photocopied our cedula), dahil mali un nasulat ko sa mother's name.. hindi daw kasi pareho na nakalagay sa birth certificate, hehe.. dapat pala Mother's Maiden Name.

They scheduled us for the seminar. (Family planning Seminar is every MWF after lunch.)

Our license will be ready after 10 days.

Wala pang isang oras!!! Di pa namin kailangan mag-leave sa work.

Cream Puff Experience

After my Pate a Choux make up class, I included cream puff in our menu. I not fond of cream puff. The puff dough doesn't have sweet taste, it's bland, actually. My first impression of cream puff, difficult to made. Pero hindi pala. I like the crisp crust of the dough. Sweet custard cream inside.

I made a little Croquembouche, tower of cream puff, although I want to try to make the real one; cone-shaped na parang Christmas tree... made this with toffee sauce and chocolate sauce.. decorated with caramel strands.

Croquembouche is a traditional french wedding cake; was made for happy occasions. wherein people enjoy eating this tower of cream puffs together. Something I also like to have/make for Christmas with different flavors of custard to fill in the puff dough..

hmmm... Christmas Project!!! Sino ba may plan ng Christmas party? hehe...
