Several months ago, we got “addicted” to a mobile game called Pro Tour Golf for Nokia moble phones.
My son was talking nonstop about golf clubs and golfing terms. We even visited several sporting goods stores to see how a club or a set costs.
We have seen several items being sold, Titleist golf, umbrellas, bags, shoes and clothes. Hmmm…golfing is not a cheap sport! That is one lesson learned.
The fascination with the sport faded after several months. We still play with the mobile game and maybe when we have more resources on hand, we would be able to afford to play this for real.

Saucy.
What comes to mind first?
For me, this:
Sweet and sour pork. Yes, a Chinese recipe but it has come to be a Filipino dish that we love.
I love this but honestly, I haven’t tried cooking that. Maybe because we haven’t had pork for a long time (except pork steak cuts for baon). I tried sweet and sour sauce with fried tilapia though.
That by the way was an order from Chowking 😉 Tastes good but a tad too sweet. I could do with more lean meat than fat and more vegetables in the dish.

Every Saturday, participants post photos based on a theme. The theme for this Saturday is BREAKFAST.
See a Filipino breakfast here.
Young and old alike, pancakes are breakfast favorites. From those plain pancakes to those fancy pancakes with add-on like chocolate chips or marshmallows on top, these are on the top of the list of must-haves for breakfast or even any time of the day.
Pancakes as my children’s heavy snacks served one cool afternoon 🙂

Lasang Pinoy Sundays theme for this week is all about the “walang kamatayang” SILOG.
The more popular terms are tapsilog, longsilog and tocilog.
But now there are different varieties like hotdogsilog, Ces’ entry pusitlog, danggitsilog, spamsilog, cornedbeefsilog, friedchickensilog, hamsilog and anything and everything that catches the fancy of the one preparing the food or the one who will eat the preparation.
Imagination has no limitation when it comes to the silog combination.
Below is our all-time favorite Rodic’s tapsilog, which I also featured several times in my blogs with the tapa already flaked for easier chewing 🙂

When my hubby had our photo taken, our son didn’t look at the camera because he was busy eating his tapsilog. When asked why, he said he missed eating the combo 😉

Elmer’s Glue All Multi-Purpose Glue is what we use with the homeschooling children.
We use this glue for our crafts, for gluing photos, for additional enrichment activities. This also works best with other projects requiring the use of glue.
As with other products, it is best to practice good precautions regarding safety. Click here to read about Elmer’s Glue All MSDS or Material Safety Data Sheet.

This song by Willie Nelson has been playing in my mind while I was thinking about the entry that I will make for Photo Hunters. Since we have lots, I mean really lots of photos of roads going to different destinations, choosing just one was a bit hard.
By the way, I have another entry here.
I chose the photo above however. We were on the way home from visiting my parents and getting the children who stayed there for several weeks last summer (April and May).The sunset was so wonderful I just had to put my hand outside the window and take a photo while we are on the move. It was just fortunate that the photo was good enough for me considering it was only one shot that I took on that spot.
