"Simbang Gabi" starts today! Christmas bells are ringing :)

"Simbang Gabi" or mass at dawn (at 4am)is a Filipino Christmas tradition. It is a series of nine-day novena mass in honor of the Blessed Mother. http://www.rcam.org/library/SIMBANG_GABI.htm

After the "Simbang Gabi" mass, we always feast on the traditional foods that awaits just outside the church or in the plaza--- the bibingka, puto bumbong and salabat. These are the foods often associated with Simbang Gabi. :)
