In 2005, this bahay kubo caught my eye in Joyce Oreña's store window at Greenbelt 3.
![Jo window]()
I wanted to have one. So when we passed by this bahay kubo maker in Bulacan two weeks ago, I just had to buy one.
Cost: PHP 1,200 (about US$28). Of course it looks nothing like Joyce Oreña's bahay kubo.

I set it up on the green roof one Sunday afternoon
![Our green roof]()
The boys were fascinated
![Our green roof]()
They brought their wrestlers and set it up
![Ben]()
Just then Jeroen came up and walked into this scene
![The wrestlers]()
Jeroen say, "Ben, are they gay?"
![Bromance]()
"No, daddy, they're just talking," Ben says.
"It's called bromance, Jer," I point it out.
Daddy talaga.
