Welcome to my monthly blog. This year, let’s encourage a humorous romantic relationship. This is how to be a Funny Valentine couple all year round. Each month has one cheesy pun for an American-English speaker to share with a Tagalog-English speaking partner. Let’s begin with month 8 of 12…

SEPTEMBER 2019: Frozen Food in the -ber Months
by Dominique Liongson

Although winter isn’t the time for a frozen snack in the Northern Hemisphere way above the equator, this doesn’t stop you in the Philippines. Check this out:

PARTNER 1: Will you be my… my ease cone yellow?

PARTNER 2: What is that?

PARTNER 1: Because you’re corny and a sweet cream of the crop with a frozen touch.

PARTNER 2: Ohhh, I see. You mean your mais con yelo. 
(mais con yelo = sweet corn kernels with ice)

Frozen food in the Philippines… ahh… If you want to be more adventurous, try some guinomis, halo-halo, or gulaman at sago

Enjoy the brrr-y chilly season with warmth in mind and heart. Looks like the start of the -ber months and onwards will be loaded with sweetly corny pick up lines.  An example would be like the one about mais con yelo.
