Snacking turned differently when I re-learned how to bake stuff. We have not been buying the usual biscuits and cookies because the children (and hubby and I as well) have been eating home-baked goodies.
I baked every other day since a 9×9 baking pan of brownies or several batches of mini-loaves and muffins are gone before 48 hours.
Last Monday we had these in our lunchbox for our snacks:

Eye-candy is the theme for Lasang Pinoy Sundays which became Lasang Pinoy Tuesday for me due to phone line problems. Hello PLDT, it has been 5 days already!
Anyway, during the past few weeks of the Christmas season, the influx of eye-candy food is varied and oh-so-tempting that anyone with sweet tooth would not resist getting a bite, or two, or maybe even more than that.
A dozen Krispy Kreme doughnuts, colourful, sweet, flavourful and yes, tempting. It may not be a Filipino sweet treat but it captured the Filipino palate
Who would care for a piece of two of that colorful candy sprinkled one or the cookies and cream? What about the snowman over here?
I do!
And now I need to go get some weight loss supplements 😀
The Fried Cream Dory Fillet is undeniably one of the favorites on the dining table.
So what do I do to prepare these easily? I have a concoction ready-made just for these fillet:
I have all these in a jar ready to use whenever the children ask for the Creamy Dory Fillet that is if we still have some left in the freezer. I just need to beat eggs to dip the fillet before I use this.
For that batch above, used additional fresh basil leaves that i cut into very tiny pieces. The smell was wonderful 🙂
Try having this is a seafood restaurant and be prepared to pay for a big bill 😉
Tsokolate-e is one of the best beverages to have during the months when the cool Northern winds are working its chill to our bones.
These found its way on our breakfast menu one cool morning after Christmas.
Have you tried this with suman and ripe mangoes?
If you haven’t, well, do try it as soon as possible 🙂
If you have, well, what do you think?
The suman (PhP 12/5 pieces) and mangoes (Php60.00/kilo) were bought from the nearby wet market while the tablea was given by MIL and bought in Bohol. Get this in a resto and you will pay a lot more than the kilo of mango for a few slices of the suman and mango cubes 🙂
The theme for this week’s Lasang Pinoy Sundays is left-over. This is very timely because of the so many food prepared during the long Christmas vacation that we had (which I still have since I am on an extended vacation because the children have been sick).
One of the things I love to do with leftover meat would be omelet. Yes, I have had several entries posted but I am too lazy to look for these. Sausage omelet here and Cheese and tuna omelet here.
This a photo of an omelet that has left-over pork barbecue meat cooked with tomatoes, garlic, onions and green and red bell pepper.
Perfect with garlic fried rice and a warm cup of coffee during chilly mornings.
Have this daily and be prepared to look for the best fat burners available in the market 😀
Almost everyone I know loves coffee.
Why, even my 7 year old son would declare that “coffee is his favorite smell”. Really.
I love coffee too though I can survive the day without drinking a cup. My hubby makes a wonderful cup which I love to drink.
We rarely use coffee makers since we use instant coffee drink. In fact our coffee maker has been unused since we got it five or so years ago.
Coffee shops have grown exponentially for the past year.
These are sprouting like mushrooms, they are almost everywhere! Proof that this country loves to drink this beverage or just want to hang out with friends holding on and drinking a cup of coffee for two hours. Ugh.
UPDATE (Feb07,2013)
Since this blog post, we started on drinking brewed coffee and has not gone back to drinking instant coffee.
