MrsWise was supposed to visit the Home World sale at SM Megamall... but I saw this interesting and colorful exhibit before I reached my destination :)
The annual Kabuhayan National Livelihood & Travel Fair is organized by the Congressional Spouses Foundation, Inc. It features the best products products from across the country.
And here are some that caught MrsWise's fancy:
DARANGEN DOLLS OF MINDANAO
Fashion dolls clad in a traditional Maranao outfit created by Dr. Sainuddin Malawani Moti. Inspired from his colorful roots of origin, a family of Maranao artists. The traditional outfit is described by a malong (a oversized colorful garment in tabular form, a bejeweled long sleeved blouse and a pinalot (hairstyle). The covering of the hair by a combong add more to the elegance, respect and fabulous culture attire of the Maranaos in the society.
QUEZON PROVINCE: FLAVORED LAMBANOG and CHITON FTW!
Chiton Chicharon are made from dried Chiton, commonly known as Kibet in Quezon, found in sea rocks. The makers say it is a healthy alternative to pork chicharon because Kibet is a good source of calcium, protein vitamin A and B3 and iron.
