A Simple New Year's Breakfast, and Big Hopes for the New Year

A few slices of Majestic Ham. Some wedges of Queso de Bola or Edam Cheese Ball. Some leftover chestnuts. Some round fruits to symbolize prosperity in the coming year. And a cup of hot chocolate.  These are the morning flavors of the holiday season since childhood, and a tradition kept alive by family.

A simple breakfast to usher in the first day of the new year, a prelude to more feasts to come. And hopes for an even better year.

The sweet and salty ham, the sharpness of the cheese and the richness of the chocolate pretty much sums up the different flavors of the past year, the ups and downs, with still so many flavors to experience and discover in this new year. Time to taste the most out of life in 2012. Here's wishing everyone an awesome new year ahead.

You can find a Majestic Ham booth inside UniMart Supermarket in Greenhills,  San Juan, Metro Manila.
