dear Orman,

ang hirap hirap ng pinapagawa mo sa amin ha? kapang kapa na nga kami sa 100-word article, ginawa mop ang 200. di bale na, para sa yo to. nakailan ka na sa aking blog ha? lolz. anyways joke lang yon.

alala ko pa first time kitang nakita sa MBS 3. hindi ikaw unang lumapit na taga Gensan kundi ang kuya mong si Avel ang nageffort, in fairness. inintroduce niya pa ako sa lahat ng taga Davao and Gensan na bloggers. sensiya na din di ako masyadong golden friendship nung araw na yun. aside from the fact na 36 hours na akong gising nun, meron pang isang BLOGger na nagpapakacelebrity the whole time. i think kilala niyo na kung sino yon. eh di ka naman din golden friendship nun eh. first impression ko pa nga sa yo makyoray ka. leche di pala.

and alala ko pa na nag may i plugging my blog ka sa madla. napakamacho daw ng blog title mo. ganda ever so much pala ang name. macho nga. kasi nga macho, naintriga na din ako. kaya nagview ako after the summit and true to the word, macho nga. teka mahilig lang ako sa macho kaya ayan.

pero sa totoo lang, first impression ko sa blog, ika nga ng anak ni Samson sa Ex-Men “puros kabaklaan lang tay, eh!” pero di naman pala. may substance din ang blog na ito. nagbibigay ng tips, lalo na pagdating sa love at pagpapapogi. pag nagbabasa ka nito para kang bumalik sa High School at lagi kang nakikinig sa class clown niyo. masaya di ba? that is why this blog is so addictive!

kaya naman pag nababagot ako dahil sa problema at pagkatigang, i go na agad sa gandaeversomuch.com kasi marami akong natututunan duong puros kabaklaan. lolz.

o siya, may gagawin pa ako. kitakits na lang soon. paalam!

i remember back in 2006 i used to frequent this  small gelato ice cream place in a small French Quarter called Aquitaine, inside the Busch Garden Theme Park in Virginia, where i interned. i sooo love their praline cream and butter pecan. sometimes, mega wish ako kung kelan ako makakatikim uli. anyways here’s a picture of me and my good ol friend Jona (miss you so) enjoying a humongous cone-full of carbs.

but now i do not have to go back there just to have a taste of heavenly sin (charut). for Missy Bon Bon offers you the best gelato in town and some other fresh, natural, and healthy goodies.

me and my fellow CDO Bloggers were invited by the owner of Missy Bon Bon, Sir Henrik Yu, to have breakfast a the said establishment. i did not hesitate to say no, because i am already a big fan long before they put up a bigger and more comfortable place in a more strategic location. i was a constant customer whenever i pass by their kiosk in the 2nd level of Big R. the gelato are simply tempting.

apparently, i am not the only one who thinks they have best gelato in town. just look at this photo of their store opening: people are already lined up. i think this is a first here in CDO (if i am not mistaken)

and now that they have more goodies to offer i did sample a breakfast meal. i ordered a chicken sausage breakfast meal (is it correct?) i truly love it.

who had tower of pancakes for breakfast?

even the fruit juices are better here.

the spot i love the most about this place is this sunny corner right here.. i just love how bright it can get but it wont hurt you. plus i love the cozy, French-y feel of this place. it feels like i am in some street bistro in some French Town.. like Aquitaine!

i got the chance to talk to Sir Henrik and i am surprised that the food and pastries they serve here are all natural, fresh and healthy. bottom line – you are guilt-free in this place. also, he mentioned about how he supports the local products. for example, they use coffee products that are produced by the monks in Bukidnon (Monk’s Blend -  popularized by designer turned monk Gang Gomez – i remember now).

more goodie pics

love this..

the best: gelato department! lolz

so many flavors to choose from. but my favorite ever is the blueberry cheesecake (top left. i know you can’t see it clearly, paubos na) then i was told the the blueberry cheesecake is their best seller. another favorite of mine is the tiramisu. (no pictures for that – sorry)

over-all my breakfast at Missy Bon Bon was a delight and i would definitely go back there for more of their food and most especially more of their best gelato. hey, already a fan! go and visit Missy Bon Bon Breadshop located at the corner of Rosario Drive, LimKetKai Center, Cagayan de Oro City (atbang sa McDonald’s Ketkai, layu ra sa Bugo). or vist Missy Bon Bon website

last Saturday was our kick-off event for CDO Bloggers Summer Blogging Activities. and that was the Blogging 101 mini forum at Vienna Kaffeehaus. di ba, masaya? noh?
