22 JANUARY 2011: day 22 (week 3)
tita tess (a family friend of ours) was having a little get together to remember her brother who passed away 40 days ago. after offering mass that morning, there was a little gathering at her house. so i cooked eggs and fried rice because it was a breakfast affair.

I have never heard of this custom. That's one reason I enjoy your blog, Girlie. I love learning about different traditions and customs. This one is particularly nice, in that the person who has passed on gets extra special remembrance.
what a wonderful tradition to remember!
So nice to get together with family and friends to remember.
