Manang Yema

I try. Yes I try. I really, really try --- to stay away from sweets but I. JUST. CAN’T. Sigh.

At least I can’t say no to Manang selling yema in Hormiga St. where our office is situated. I was actually winning over my wanting to eat yema but noooo my new officemate had to buy packs of yema and gave us one each. Aaaargh. So there ends my self-control as I now buy 2 packs of yemas a day (10 small pieces/pack) --- except for Monday when Manang Yema is on leave because she does the laundry. Hehe.

Anyway, the bite-size yemas are addicting and once you open a pack you really can’t stop. The trouble is, they are so small so you’d think you aren’t eating a lot except that you find yourself with an empty pack in less than 3 minutes. THAT BAD!

The nice thing (or bad thing whichever way you look at it) about Manang Yema is that she gives you free yema for each pack you buy. Haaay! How can you not love her?!?

If you are craving for yema during workdays, you can find Manang at Hormiga St. around lunch time (except for Mondays --- that’s laundry day!).
