Thank You So Much, Fellow Foodies!

I know this post has been delayed for weeks, but this is just in time because we’ve got a lot to be thankful for today, including our home in Dampalit, Malabon being spared from complete destruction from Pedring.

When we joined the run for the Top 10 Emerging Influential Blogs for 2011, Ken and I did not expect the amount of support we got from our fellow bloggers, foodies and friends. So, when we found out we got a record-breaking 100+ votes, we were in shock. We landed in #1 after the votes were tallied.

Thank you to the Pinay Mommies Community for the love and support, especially from Mommy Rubz who welcomed me to the group even in my single-blessedness.

Thank you to everyone who voted for us. I haven’t collated your names and links yet, but as soon as I do, we’ll give you a link back on this post. 🙂

As Cielo of Brown Pinay, a dear blogger friend, commented, “Taon nyo talaga ang 2011.”, and we couldn’t agree more. I mean, we are overwhelmed by the fact that right after emerging as #1 in the Top 10 Emerging Influential Blogs for 2011, we also got in the Top 10 of FriendsEat.com’s 2011 Best Food Blogger. Ken and I can think of a hundred and million reasons why people voted for us, most of them are pretty funny, but we still appreciate the love and support so much. 🙂

There were hundreds of food blogs that were nominated, but our fellow Pinoys and friends rallied to keep us in the Top 10! We’re the only Pinoy food blog on the list so we are so grateful for the love and support. *BIG HUGS*

Here’s the list of the Top 10. Click on the image below to be directed to the official announcement over at FriendsEat.com.

Thank you so much to Jonha Revesencio, a well-known Pinay Social Media Strategist and the author behind I Did It, who nominated us. 🙂

Thank you to everyone who took the time to vote for our food blog. We were well aware we got a ton of fierce competition in that voting, but you all know we can always count on the Pinoy online community when it comes to supporting our own. 🙂

We don’t have the resources to throw a big thank you party for everyone who supported us (maybe soon, we will… 😉 ), we thought of doing it OUR way instead. We want to make it more personal, just like how we’ve written about food here or how we shared with you our food adventures as siblings. We want to keep this a surprise for now, but I’ll give you some clues…

– Ken loves baking pastries at home.

– We recently raffled off 2 boxes of Ken’s homemade truffles:

Got any idea yet?! Basta! Stay tuned!

Because of all the love we’re getting, we have gained more momentum in continuing to share our passion for writing about food, sharing our foodie adventures, recipes and our culinary discoveries. And now that we’re better equipped to take better photos (yes, I have an awesome camera now!), be prepared or make sure you’re full when you visit us after the delicious blog makeover I’m planning on giving this food blog of ours.

Again, THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THE SUPPORT! We hope to have more food trips for y’all fellow certified foodies so stay tuned! 🙂
