We recently got a few DVD movies for the children to watch.
One was Space Buddies which they have watched two or three times already which has dogs as stars in the movie. This is a sign that they love it because of the number of times it has been watched to think it was just Friday night that we got these movies.
The other movie we got was Bedtime Stories starring Adam Sandler a hotel handyman which was also funny and they understood early on that the stories told by the children were magically and coincidentally coming true. I just think they enjoyed the Jumanji (from the same director) better.
Still another movie they enjoyed was “The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian“. They have almost forgotten about the first movie “The Lion, the Witch and the Wardobe“and I am sure they will watch that to refresh their memories.

I was a bit challenged with this one and since I can not find any tricolore food photo in my files that I have cooked/made, I decided to put this hastily-taken photo of a glass of Sago’t Gulaman. Gutom na kasi at that time kaya hastily taken, more like an after-thought, 😀
Sago’t gulaman. One of the Pinoy thirst-quenchers that seems to have taken a back seat because of the influx of sugar-laden soda drinks, tea-based drinks and other drinks called shakes with chemically enhanced flavors. This is perfect for summer, isn’t it? If not, a halo-halo will do just fine 😀
Gotta.have.one.like.this.today ->note to self.
Yeah and not think that I need some weight loss pills to get ready for the beach this summer 😀

The theme for this Saturday is THANKFUL
I came across this quotation about being thankful a few days ago when I was thinking about the post I will make for the theme: “It isn’t what you have in your pocket that makes you thankful, but what you have in your heart”
And I say “yes, I agree”
I am thankful about so many things which I wrote about in this other PH entry
I am thankful for my parents who may not have much in their pockets (like me, lol!) but have big hearts with overflowing love 🙂
We do not have a mansion with spacious rooms and high-ceilings but we felt like royalty because in the eyes of my parents, my brother and I are both the little prince and little princess 🙂
The home which is the witness of many wonderful moments is in bad shape and needs major repairs but we are hopeful that everything will fall into place 🙂
Thank you God for giving me a wonderful family 🙂

Birthday celebrations and parties have come a long way. Birthday cakes too, are now more fanciful and detailed they look more like storybooks than cakes.
No kidding.
Take a look at this Winnie the Pooh inspired cake with the Honey Tree and Roo on the side where the photo was taken:
Nice right? It looks like a book that comes alive (well, it is almost the size of a book). It is colorful and looks three-dimensional.
Do you agree?
To inquire about this cake, contact Kim.

EATS a WRAP!
I was feeling a little worried that I would have to go order myself that wrap in one of the fast food nearby. I was also tempted to buy a shawarma, warm, cheesy and spicy. But wait, these are not Filipino foods so I thought long and hard because I knew I have something in my files and so I have!
Very simple, very Pinoy and very tasty: our home made Saba con cheese turon 😀
How to make these? Simple and here is how:
First of course, get some ripe bananas using the saba variety:
A little overripe is ok. Cut these bananas into four pieces.
Cut the cheese like little cheese sticks, or the size of French fries.
Put the sliced banana and cheese together on a wrap (lumpia wrapper, store bought) and sprinkle with a little sugar. We use muscovado sugar variety at home.
Fry these banana and cheese turon in a hot skillet and you will have:
