An evening with President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo

The other evening, 16th of December I attended a reception banquet held at the Hilton Copenhagen Airport Hotel, held in honor of the president of the Republic of the Philippines, her excellency Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo. As I am a leader of a Filipino-Swedish organization in the southern part of Sweden, which is only 1 to 1.5 hours drive away to Copenhagen Denmark, I was invited by the Philippine embassy in Norway and Denmark. This evening was truly a memorable experience. The other significant thing is that I ate everything I saw on the buffet. The caramelized potatoes looked so sinfully delicious so I shoved in more or less 4 tiny once with 2 slices of boneless ribsteak, 1 lambchop, 1 goose club and 1 slice of poached cod soaked in creamy white sauce...then splashed all these down with 3 deciliters of coke and 3 deciliters of sparkling water ....and the day after I lost 300 grams...amazing!
