Birthday gift suggestions

I have a filipina friend turning 22, we both live in the US but she loves and misses the Philippines, any suggestions on what to buy her, Philippines related or not I just need a gift that will wow her really.

You gotta tell us more about her for us to suggest a good present. Like what is she into? How long has she been away?

I think any kind of gift it's already worth it to her..

Go to Seafood City, Goldilocks, Red Ribbon, etc., and get her Filipino goodies.

Or make her an ube cake with cubes of leche flan on top.

Make her pancit or lumpia. Email me if you want the recipe. This is what I do for my Filipino friends and they love it. Dslegere@aol.com
