Cooking Fever: Rice, etc

I always make sure my husband has breakfast as his baon because he leaves early in the morning to avoid traffic. My schedule at work provides me ample time to cook our food. I’m sure just like me, moms out there spend a lot of time thinking of meals/baon for their husbands every single day. I’d like to share some of my ideas for office baon for your husbands.

When we say breakfast for work, it’s not enough that we eat bread. We, Filipinos, love rice and it’s a jumpstart (aside from coffee) of our day. So here are rice recipes I provided for my husband.

1. Yangchow Rice- Mix of left over rice, frozen mixed veggies (those you can buy from supermarket), ham and eggs


2. Famous Garlic Rice (with Garlic Longganisa) – Left over rice and toasted garlic, egg is optional. For the the one with garlic longganisa, use the oil after cooking the longganisa.



3. Adobo Rice – Left over rice and adobo sauce with fried adobo meat and potatoes


4. Bagoong Rice – Binagoongan Sauce and rice topped with Binagoongang meat and eggplant


5. Corned Pork Rice– La Filipina corned pork (because Lester doesn’t eat beef) and Rice with Mushroom, Red Bell Peppers, White Onions and Cheese Omelette

It's a Girl!

Finally after 30 weeks, Lester and I are happy to announce that we are having a baby GIRL! It took that long because we’re the kind of couple who’s obedient to the OB- have ultrasound when needed. Last time we checked, the OB did not confirm Little Javier’s gender though she told us that this little one is most likely a baby girl. Lester was still positive to have a baby boy- he still has 40-30% chance. But hey, it doesn’t matter- after all, we can still make another one :).  It must be the genes- my mom gave birth to 5 children- 4 of us are girls and our youngest is a boy (can you just imagine how Little C feels when he’s at home?). Lester was already dreaming of playing with his little one, teaching how to play PS, bike and all those boy stuff while I was already imagining cooking, baking and doing girly stuff with our little Javier- and I won! I remember when I was still on my first and second trimester, I was so into little things for girls that when I go to the mall’...

How I Made It Thru My Laziness

I woke up one morning and thought, I want to shop! But I was too lazy to get up and dress myself to pass by malls before I go to work. And then, I remembered my good friend Zalora. I wasn't really a fan of buying things online (especially huge amounts) because I feel my credit card might get screwed and might end me owing something I did not purchase. Aside from that, I was also not really very confident that I might not get the right size or it's not the one I bought, or simply, I don't like it at all, pala! Until I knew of someone who has tried this online purchasing and so I tried it.  This is already my second time to buy in Zalora. Remember, after being curious of buying online., this time Zalora helped my PMS-ing issues. :)  Zalora has thousands of goods anything from clothes to shoes to accessories, branded or from the marketplace, for men and of course, for the ladies. My favorites come from Spring Fling and Something Borrowed. Affordable, classy and...

First Plane Ride

Do you remember the first time you rode the plane? Nowadays, it’s very easy for kids to experience their first plane ride as fares are cheaper. Thanks to budget airlines that once had a vision that every person can ride a plane once in their lives. I took my first plane ride when I was 5 years old. Lucky to experience that young, I was with my mom and my sister when all of us rode the plane for the first time to travel. I had no idea what was this travel is all about, even did not have any knowledge where we’re going. All I knew was that, we’re riding the plane and we were going somewhere far where my dad studied his Master’s degree. Not all kids, during that time, had that chance. And definitely, not all kids had the chance to travel to Europe so I am most thankful to my lola (who’s in US) who gave us this opportunity. Here’s my picture back then. We had a stopover in Hongkong Airport and this innocent kid asked her mom why we were getting down the plane. My mom answered...
