The Beyonce Box


It's just a plain ice box, something to keep fish in. We bought it at a fish shop in Davao when we decided to bring home some tuna.

I don't know what got to me -- maybe it was because we watched Beyonce's concert on DVD the night before -- but after the box had been sealed and I was given a pen to scribble my name on it, I wrote down "Beyonce." Then I turned to B and told him I'd carry all the bags if he would pick the "Beyonce box" up at the airport.

We had a good laugh waiting for the box to turn up at the airport in Manila. When it did, B plucked it off the baggage carousel immediately, not wanting anyone to see who Beyonce was.

That glittering and glamorous ice box has travelled with us many times since, and of course, each time it's with us, bearing fish, meat, soda or ice, we can't help but hum "To the Left, to the left..."
