How I Became a Writer: Essays by Filipino and Filipino American Writers offers intimate, fine-grained accounts in the making of what constitutes contemporary Philippine literature, provided by a remarkable set of Filipino writers in the Philippines and abroad, It is a book to be treasured. ~ Resil B. Mojares, Philippine National Artist in Literature.


Step Into Our Kitchens: Theresian Recipes and Tales is not just a cookbook; it’s a time capsule of cherished family recipes and stories passed down through generations. As you explore these pages, you’ll discover more than just ingredients and cooking method-you’ll uncover the love, laughter, and traditions that have shaped a Theresian family’s culinary heritage. For those with a Theresian grandmother, mother, aunt, wife, or sister, let these recipes serve as a bridge to the past, a connection to your roots, and a reminder to savor the flavors of your family history for many years to come. This is a true culinary masterpiece that captures the heart and soul of Theresian values. ~ Ige Ramos, Food Scholar and Writer
