They are one: tokwa’t baboy. One perfect combination especially served with spicy soy sauce. Nomnomnom!
But wait…where is the baboy?
Where is the baboy then? It is under the pile of tokwa, hidden.
Why? Because the pork strips were hideous, all fat. Ugh. I don’t know if it is because i haven’t eaten nor ordered this for a loooong time but then hubby said to never order this again. Ok.
This should have been an entry for my resto-rant LaPiS entry which incidentally happened two weeks ago so this can’t possibly qualify.

Bottomless iced tea. Our children love to drink this beverage, bottomless or not.
One of the more popular “resto-rant” would be about iced tea not getting filled fast enough especially when there are a lot of customers.
We have encountered those too but more often, we don’t. So what’s the secret?
Sit near where the pitchers are kept 😉
One more thing, we ask if it is ok for two young children to share the bottomless iced tea. They usually say yes. If only they know these two children drink more than I can drink, so “shhhhh…” 😉

Whenever my mother-in-law take vacations in the US, she brings home boxes upon boxes of thingamajigs that she buys during yard sale.
Her boxes has, among other things, a small chain saw (I wonder how this passed customs, lol!), candelabras, books, bags, toys for the grandchildren, area rugs, crystal bottles, condiments containers, silverware baskets, and other knick-knacks that catches her fancy.
She has sent several boxes while she was there. She brought one or two when she came home. And still, the boxes keep coming.
Most of the things in it are for her home down south which I am featuring below:
Pardon the clutter, the grandchildren were staying with her when this photo was taken by my eldest daughter.

I apologize for the uncooked seafood but I could not resist posting this photo of a crablet in the clam. I got a kilo of these halaan for lunch and decided to take photos when I got surprised to see these little creatures. Yep, around half the clams had these crablets inside.
Here are some (soon-to-be) baked mussels and mussels cooked in lemongrass broth which I am sure some of you have already seen.
Have a great week, everyone!

Everywhere one goes to our home, reading materials can be seen. Magazines in the bathrooms and on the bedside table, cookbooks in the kitchen, children’s story books on the sofa, the paperback I am currently reading on the bed (lol!), countless e-books in the computers and different kinds of books in the library.
Here is one part of our home library. Pardon the clutter, the books keep piling up faster than I can organize these.
I have a thing about collecting an author’s books if I like what I have read. Among my collection are (my almost complete) Mary Higgins-Clark and her daughter Carol, David Baldacci, Michael Crichton, Richard North Patterson, David Kellerman, almost complete Archie McNally series by Lawrence Sanders, Dan Brown, Tom Clancy and Robert Ludlum, among others.
Oh, by the way, I don’t usually buy new books, I get these from bargain book stores. I only buy new books that come in series like the Harry Potter books.
