My delicious stories will make you want to eat like a Filipino.

Hi! My name is Merce.

I live in sunny California with my husband and friend of 50 years and Moe, our precious Jack Russell. An anthropologist in my prior life, I also worked as a food importer and wholesale trader. In retirement, I play the piano to soothe my soul, read and write to stimulate my mind, and cook to keep my loved ones close by.
