Pamamanhikan

There is a Filipino tradition called "pamamanhikan". Pamamanhikan is where the man and his parents visit the woman's family and ask for her parents blessings to marry their daughter. This is also the time for the parents of the woman to get to know the parents of the man. 

During this occasion, the man and his parents bring some gifts and food. They say that the food they bring should have "pancit" and "kakanin" (noodles and native delicacies usually rice cakes) for a long and sticky marriage.  :D

So, last march 10 my parents went to Pampanga for the pamamanhikan.. :)
