Julio and Julia Special Strawberry Cider

We got this bottle of Julio & Julia Special Strawberry Cider during a trade fair we went to last year. This was made from the far north up where the mountains are cool and where strawberries are harvested.

The bottle content is almost gone. We need to get a new one soon. I even asked iMom last month to get me a bottle when she and her family had a vacation in the City of Pines but she was not able to find a bottle.

What I like about this is its being sour without tasting like it has been chemically done to do so, it is naturally sour without leaving an aftertaste in the palate. It also smells pleasantly good.

With what do I use this? When I eat green mango salad with fresh tomatoes and onions.

I hope to get a bottle soon but where?

Fried Cream Dory Fillet

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:

  • all purpose flour
  • cornstarch
  • bread crumbs
  • salt
  • pepper
  • dry basil

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,ย  used additional fresh basil leaves that i cut into very tiny pieces. The smell was wonderful ๐Ÿ™‚

Try having this is a seafood restaurant and be prepared to pay for a big bill ๐Ÿ˜‰

Tsokolate-e

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 ๐Ÿ™‚

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 ๐Ÿ™‚

Missing Snowman Hat

Every Saturday, participants post photos based on a theme. The theme for this Saturday is HAT(S).

I went differently though, I went HAT LESS in this entry whereas I have different hats in my other PH post ๐Ÿ™‚

Our Krispy Kreme Snowman has no hat!

Should he had any or this is just ok?

They use anti-slip treatment on the floor so that those who walk on it will not slip and cause accidents.

Here in the Philippines, GlobalSafe Philippines provides these services. They not only will treat the floors to make these anti-slip, the company also sells multi-purpose cleaner that will do wonders on your floors, especially in the kitchen where the utmost care is given to sanitation.

Leftover Barbecue Omelet

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 andย  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 ๐Ÿ˜€
