Three Little Pigs

Monday, June 27th, 2005

This is our new favorite snack — sisig buns! These cute buns are filled with, you guessed it, yummy sisig. Best eaten when fresh out of the oven! Aren’t they just too cute to eat? This is sold for P38.00 per bun at Breadtalk. Mmmmm!

Breakfast Baon

Thursday, June 23rd, 2005

If I had the time to have a leisurely breakfast, this would be my ideal menu: tinapang isda, diced tomatoes on the side, brown rice and an egg cooked sunny side up. I’d wash that down with a glass of O.J. and have some fresh fruit for dessert. Yum. Sadly, weekday mornings make my home [...]


Housewarming tayo!

Wednesday, June 22nd, 2005

A fairy godmother named Tin waved her wand over my pumpkin home and transformed it into this pretty new place that reminds me of spring. Thank you, Tin! Make yourself at home now. Help yourself to some Sinigang na Baboy, all-you-can-eat rice, tortang talong and some steamed spinach. We’ll wash it down with green mango [...]


What’s your comfort food?

Thursday, June 16th, 2005

This is mine: Sinigang na Baboy Whenever I’d come home from a trip abroad, this would be one of my immediate requests. “Mama, I want Sinigang when I come home ha.” Or when I’m feeling really down at work, I’d rush over to the food court and get myself a bowl of Sinigang. I’d feel [...]


The Leftover Challenge

Tuesday, June 14th, 2005

I visited my folks over the long weekend and couldn’t resist looking into their pantry. I did spy some leftovers! Now what can you make with a leftover pack of fresh basil leaves, an unused pack of pizza sauce, a block of Mozzarella and a bunch of sliced bread? This! I first made pesto out [...]


“Popeye ate that?!”

Friday, June 10th, 2005

When I was a kid, I loved watching Popeye squeeze the spinach out of a can, gobble it up, then grow muscles. Because I wanted to be strong like Popeye, I asked my Mom if I could have spinach some time since I’ve never tasted it. In my mind, I was thinking that spinach was [...]


A stash o’ snacks

Monday, June 6th, 2005

I was so amused when my sister pulled out a big sandwich bag full of snacks out of her school bag. This was her emergency stash. While they come in handy when your sweet tooth’s acting up, they’re also great to take the boredom out of long waits. She had Nissin’s wafers, Andes chocolates and [...]
