Want to Read $ 12.99"People said that dogs tended to resemble their owners, and considering that my little wiener dog was a super cute brown girl with stubby legs, great fashion sense, and a tendency toward plumpness, I had to agree."-Mia P. Manansala, Homicide and Halo-Halo (Tita Rosie's Kitchen Mystery, #2)
"I decided to let Longganisa ride with us, both to cheer us up and to make up for having her shut in my room all night. We completed the short drive in silence, Joy stroking Longganisa's short fur and hugging the little chonk against herself."-Mia P. Manansala, Homicide and Halo-Halo (Tita Rosie's Kitchen Mystery, #2)
"I set out a loaf of zucchini-pandan bread, the green coloring from the extract adding an interesting tinge to the crumb. The grassy, floral taste complemented the neutral flavor of the zucchini well, and the turbinado sugar I'd sprinkled on top added a delicious crunch."-Mia P. Manansala, Homicide and Halo-Halo (Tita Rosie's Kitchen Mystery, #2)
"So you're the former beauty queen Rob mentioned. Not quite what I was expecting, honey." The spell she'd cast over me lifted a bit at that remark---I didn't need her reminding me I wasn't beauty queen material. I felt Bernadette's and Adeena's influence stirring in me and returned the smirk. "Same goes for you." "What, because I'm young and Black?" "No, because you seem like you have self-respect."-Mia P. Manansala, Homicide and Halo-Halo (Tita Rosie's Kitchen Mystery, #2)
