It was my first time to really set foot in Katipunan. I only pass by it whenever I go to Antipolo to spend weekend with cousins. Much thanks to Alexandra for taking me there.
I was swooned by the homey, countryside feel of Banapple’s ambiance. The pastel frames mounted on its walls tugged at my childhood/teenage adoration for candy colors. The figurines and kitchen displays arranged neatly in the shelves reminded me of my intermittent longing for county setting and domestic bliss. The meal was heavy and the banoffee pie was heavenly. I have found another solitary sanctuary in the metropolis.
Our conversation from Banapple to Cubao Ex revolved primarily on adulthood, recurring melancholy, solitude and independence, growing old alone vs marriage, and the many intricate adult issues we’re dealing with. Alex shared this link [http://www.cracked.com/blog/5-things-they-never-told-us/ ] to me over twitter with the accompanying message “our conversation tonight in bullet points”. Indeed, it pretty much encapsulates, in a matter-of-fact way, many of the things we discussed that earth hour night.
