Foodshot Sundays - Maty's Tapsihan


The husband been telling me since Friday that he wants to eat "Tapsilog" (Tapa-Sinangag-Itlog) at Maty's. It's located in Dongalo, Paranaque. Today, Tin is here. She's also a fanatic of that kind of food. So, off we went. Even my Lil'One loves their "Si-Log" ( fried garlic rice & sunny-side up egg). Me, I also like their "Tapsilog", besides it tastes good and cheap. It also makes me nostalgic about my childhood. The house we used to live in is still there and just 3 houses apart from the Tapsihan where we ate. But it has deteriorated so much that it lost her beauty. Anyways, it's good to be there again (",)

Pacquiao Smashed Diaz!!!

Manny Pacquiao won over David Diaz. Literally, he smashed the face of Diaz. Diaz suffered several cuts on his face. It was a 9th round knock-out! From Super Featherweight Champion, he is now the WBC Lightweight Division Champion. Making him the 9th boxer in the world, first in Asia, that garnered a quadruple world title champion.

Kung Fu Panda

After weeks of waiting for the husband to ask us if we want to watch this movie, at long last, we watched Kung Fu Panda. A very hilarious movie from start to finish. Po, the big fat panda, made my tummy ached so much from laughing, hehehe! The Furious Five; Tigress, Monkey, Mantis, Viper and Crane, are pretty amazing with their martial arts moves. My kid is acting it out, the kicking and turning! I like the most is the character of Master Oogway, the turtle. He is so wise and gentle. I love what he said to Po, "Yesterday is history. Tomorrow is a mystery. Today is a gift, that is why, it is called a present." One great movie, that is a must to see!

Turon Triangles

I used the square wanton wrapper tucked in my refrigerator rather the traditional lumpia wrapper bought in wet supermarkets. I have some left-over when I did the recipe of "Fried Cheesedog Dumplings", click here for the recipe. And instead of putting strips of sweetened langka, which I didn't have. I add cheese as an alternative.

makes 24 pieces.

Ingredients:
  • 2 medium pcs of ripe plantain bananas (saging na saba)
  • 1/2 cup of grated quickmelt cheese
  • 1/4 cup of brown sugar
  • 24 pcs square wanton wrappers
  • 1 pc egg white
  • 2 cups of cooking oil for deep-frying

Procedure:

Slice into twelve each piece of banana. Lay a wanton wrapper on a flat surface. Brush all sides with egg white. Put a slice of banana at the center. Top with a teaspoon of grated cheese and half teaspoon of brown sugar. Form a triangle. Sealing all the sides. Do the same to the rest.

In a pan, over medium fire. Heat oil thoroughly but not smoking hot. Drop carefully each triangle. Do not overcrowd the pan. Cook until light brown. Turn to have an even browning. This would only take a few seconds. Drain in a colander.

Serve.

Priceless!

As I was about to start cooking dinner. When i open our faucet... viola! no water! Grrr! our water supply lately is very erratic. Outside before you reach our village you will see a lot of pipes leaking. Even if you report it to the authorities. There is no action done.

Hayyy! Usually, by ths time the water supply is fine until 11 pm. It's really hard to cook and clean afterwards the kitchen if your water is limited. Got so irritated. The husband even told me not to cook anymore and just have our food delivered. But I didn't feel like it. I just continue what I had started. While doing so, our Lil'one asked me, "Ma, are you okay?" (Ma, ok ka lang?). I said, "No, I'm not okay." and asked him why? He told me, "I thought your mad at me because your angry." I told him, "I'm not mad at you. Why would I be mad at you? It's just that, I'm so irritated that there's no water again!" He just gave a big hug and kissed me on the cheek. sweet, isn't he? My kiddo maybe makulit but he's also very sweet and affectionate. In an instant he can make me smile, takes away my being irritated. This is one of the good things of being a mom.... priceless!

(",) In the photo above, Hubby is holding a little froggy. A half an inch frog... that's how small it is!!!

Jollibee Breakfast Meals


Because of the bad weather, I got up late this morning, around 10 am. Not for the reason that lying in bed is good right now. But for the fact that I can't sleep straight. The strong winds been blowing so hard, making our Mango tree sway over our roof, making a screeching sound!

The husband asked if we could have Jollibee breakfast meals delivered. I said, yes without any hesitation. I did not feel like slaving myself in the kitchen and for the fact, that my tummy is growling, meaning I'm hungry. It's way past my breakfast time which is around 7 am after my insulin shot.


Breakfast meals in Jollibee is one of my family's favorite, The husband loves the Longganisa Meal, that's way before when he was still my boyfriend up until now. The Lil'One learned to love their pancakes. While, I love their tapa and longganisa too! Even our dear Luigi loves the garlic fried rice. I even left him some of my tapa to enjoy with garlic fried rice.

Storm Frank

Our flooded street.

Since yesterday, it was gloomy because of the heavy rains storm Frank been giving us. When I got up this morning. I saw our street been flooded with rain water, until now as I'm typing this (buti na lang sa labas lang ng bahay hindi sa loob!). Even our backyard been like that too. Plus the fact, that as early as 4 am this morning the electricity died on us. Fortunately, after several hours it came back, at around 1 pm. A great relief for me! I thought it will be gone again for a long time. Like what happened when storm Milenyo hits Manila two years ago. We did not had electricity, for 7 straight days! What a week of discomfort!.... and a very traumatic experience!

According to the husband, who's always updated about the current news. The weather here in Manila will be like this for several days, about a week. Nyaaayy! The good thing about storm Frank is, it's not humid and hot anymore. But I bet, after several days of rain water in flooded areas, lots of mosquitoes will be lurking around again! tsk, tsk, tsk!

Photo Hunt 115 "Water"


Our boat trip going to Coco Beach Island Resort, Puerto Galera, Oriental Mindoro, Phils. last summer. Actually, I was taking a photo of my kiddo while he was enjoying the ride. But the trip was too bumpy because of the big waves. I can't keep my hand steady. Anyways, the picture was great! I got it while the water is splashing. Perfect for this week's theme!

Friday Is Noodle Day For My Lil'One

Today, is Lucky Me's Instant Pancit Canton Day or Noodle Day! That is, every Friday! That's the deal I had with my Lil'One. He is only allowed to eat instant nooodles once a week. He loves it so much, particularly instant pancit canton and goes ga-ga over it! I know, it is unhealthy because of the high level content of sodium and mono-sodium glutamate (MSG). That is why, it is only taken once a week. And also, a little reward for him after being a good kid in school.

After we got home from school, I immediately went to the kitchen, washed my hands and cooked 2 packs of instant pancit canton for his merienda. As he was putting his school bag in its proper place, changing his clothes and putting his school lunch box to the sink. You can see the eyes of my kiddo twinkling with glee! That's how much he loves noodles specially this one! The commercial of this product is true.... anti-sumpong.... anti-lowbat (",)

In the photo, my Lil'One is showing off his favorite Pancit'on (that's what he calls it!), in his two favorite flavors, "Kalamansi" (green package) and the "Sweet-Spicy" (orange package).

Picking/Fetching

For this year, I am the one who will be accompanying my kiddo to school and fetching him from it, sometimes the husband, if he wanted to or if I need to be somewhere else. Unlike before, he had a school service. This time, I had a hard time finding a school service for him, in which, he will be picked up here in our house, 30 minutes prior his school time starts. When he was in grades 1 & 2, he was in morning class. But for now, he wanted to try and experience the afternoon class. I let him be. That's when I encountered the problem with his school service schedule. But the good thing about it, his school is near and only within the next subdivision to ours. I get to walk going there for about 35-40 minutes... good thing for me! I get to exercise daily. And also, I can do some errands outside the house in between. So, I decided, I'll be the one doing it!

For now, I need to go. I'll be paying some utility bills before I pick my little man in school (",)

Yesterday Was A Bummer!

I've been down yesterday... bummer! I felt really sick though i do not have a fever. But got an infected skin rash and my back was killing me. My back is like this for weeks now. Last night, I cannot stand the pain anymore. I took a pain reliever. And for the skin rash, I'll be cleaning it twice a day and I took an anti-bacterial and anti-inflammatory pill. I'll be taking it for 5 days until the skin rash is gone. This is one of the setbacks when my blood sugar is high. I get skin infections easily.

Weekend Snapshot - Belated Happy Father's Day!



Last Sunday, we ate at Max's Restaurant to celebrate Father's Day. Here are the photos of the food we had. In the photo shown above, that's my two favorite boys. They are playing with the PSP while waiting for our food to be served.

BELATED HAPPY FATHER'S DAY!!!

Photo Hunt 114 "Emotion"


Taken two years ago at the rink, my Lil'One was crying after the incident of diving on the ice. He scratched half of his face as you can see in the photo. No one to blame because it was his fault. He can't seem to stop goofing around.... so malikot and makulit! You know kids... they will never stop until they get hurt...

Chamy

My merienda today. I've been craving for something which I don't really know. I've been like this for several days now. The husband wanted Pancit Malabon and Putong-puti. I called Aling Lucy's Panciteria. While I was ordering over the phone, I realized the Panciteria is also serving Chamy. It's like Pancit Lomi but has much bigger noodles. It is cooked dry, like Pancit Bihon Guisado and not like the saucy Pancit Lomi we all know. It is particularly salty and a little maanta in taste which is best eaten with cooked rice, hehehe! Though, it is only my snack, I ate it with cooked rice.... yummy! I'm such rice person, simply can't resist it (",)

Spoiled Brat!

Everyone here in our home loves to eat bananas, it's a family favorite. Have you seen a dog who loves to eat fruits and veggies? That's our dear Luigi! Also, would you believe he loves fish more than meat. Next time, I'll post a photo of him eating his favorite "Sinigang"!!!

In the photo above, the husband is feeding him bananas after his weekly bath. He had three! Maybe you're wondering why is he fed still by hand though he's a big dog now.... Well, he likes it that way! If not, he wouldn't eat. A spoiled brat! (",)

Hidden Mickey

As I said from my previous post, we had a late breakfast at Chowking yesterday. My kiddo had his ever-favorite sunny-side-up egg and garlic rice. When it was delivered to our table. He whispered something to my ear, "Look Ma, it's a hidden mickey!" and smiles giddily. Just look at the photo above. That's how amazing a kid's imagination can be! Like any other kids I know, he loves to watch Disney Channel.

Free Meal



The husband wanted to claim the freebies at Chowking. One of the benefits of being BPI credit card holders. We had our late breakfast there, just before getting our Lil'one in school. Hubby and I had their beef chao fan with regular coke and petite size halo-halo. A nice meal, indeed!
