Kalami Cebu Initial Reaction

To be honest, I am pretty surprised with the nomination since I have written less this year compared to the previous years.  My content has shifted to video and majority of my blog posts include a video that is in my YouTube channel.  Majority of Kalami Cebu's engagement is in Kalami Cebu's facebook page which has nurtured a growing food-loving community for years.  It was a big surprise to get the nomination but definitely it was a pleasant one.  It is an honor to be nominated and I would like to congratulate my fellow nominees this year and I hope to see you all at the Awarding ceremonies.
