 JW> She has port, wine or spirits as the mood strikes her; they all work,

 GJ> Perhaps that is a deep-seated fear from the days of the Cold War, when

 JW> Well she did grow up surrounded by Ukrainians....

Well, there's the answer!  She had learnt that it was essential to
stay awake when surrounded by vodka drinkers, and so carried that
association into later life.
 
 JW> Title: Wala Lang Pero
 
 GJ> Something wrong there, as "pero" means "but".

 JW> The original title was Wala Lang Pero Pork but the recipe used chicken
 JW> and I deleted that word as it made no sense.

That makes a bit more sense as a title - "Nothing but pork", but even
less sense as title for that chicken recipe.  "Walang baboy", "No pig"
would be more accurate.

 JW> Perhaps the guy posted a recipe for pork but prefers chicken or vice
 JW> versa?          

Who knows?

 JW> I googled "wala lang" but could make no sense of what I found. It is
 JW> all very confusing. I think I'll just rename the recipe "Sam's chicken
 JW> in pandan leaf bundles". Since I'm unlikely to find and purchase pandan
 JW> leaves in the near future it's all moot.

I can get pandan leaves from my local "Lucky Asian", and keep them
frozen to add to rice when cooking - just tossed in on top before
switching on the rice cooker.
