Tired of Waiting

When I came home from work tonight, here is the scene that I saw with my kids... They're sleeping on the couch, with the head and feet hanging...Gosh, makes me wanna cry... Now I made up my mind, no more hesitation of resigning from work, I really need to do it for the sake of my children.. The money that I am earning isn't worth the time that I have been away from my kids. I'll just finish this year and that's it.. No more working next year, not until my kiddoes are big enough to go to school...

Adobo con Sili?

Our ulam (main course) yesterday was pork adobo. How do you cook your adobo? I don't really follow recipe, I enjoyed creating or inventing my own menu. Hubby like adobo with Mang Tomas Sauce in it.. It gives a little sweetness to it. We also put boiled eggs because our daughter love it (i like it too), its delicious. I dunno if you guys add potatoes, but its good too.
Here's my plate, don't be surprised to see some hot chili in there, remember that I am from Bicol and we are very fond of eating spicy stuff. John introduced me to this pickled chili which is hot and I like eating with my food with it (interesting combi eh?). It gives me more appetite, meaning I'm going to have these maximum bilbil again. Oh well, I'll just double up my work out then lol..
Hubby and daughter love sweet rice so I made them some for their dessert. I ate fruit as my dessert. So there you go my friends... I'll post tomorrow what we had for today.. See You all tomorrow...I'm going nyt nyt now.. God bless!

Honeymoon in Cebu

Me and my husband both love to travel, its one thing that gives us relaxation. We had an unforgettable experience when we went to Maribago Blue Water Resort in Cebu City, Philippines for our honey moon. We planned to stay there for a week but we got disappointed when the waiter overcharged us with the drinks and food we ordered. I mean, we like the place and everything but the dishonesty of the resort's employee. So after a couple of days we decided to transfer to another nearby resort called Tambuli Beach and stayed for the rest of the week. Here's a picture of us taken in Maribago Beach.

By January we are planning to go to Japan if our budget permits lol. My husband is going there for a couple of weeks to attend the TAP class and we are thinking to go with him. When we go back to mainland, hubby really wants to go to Maine and experience the natural beauty of the place. The best time to go there i believe is during summer time because it is so cold in that State. 

Mink Binket

The weather is changing drastically. It's getting colder and colder everyday. So we cranked up the heater and dug out our mink blankets (my daughter used to say mink binket). I was busy yesterday, washing up all the bed sheets and blankets. Then we cleaned the house, cooked, blogged a lil' bit and taught my second student at 5 pm.. Whew, what a busy day for Mommy. good thing Rylie is helping me, thank you anak! Here are my kids show casing their binkets lol..This one reminds me when my daughter was still a baby, she used to sleep like this.. Butt up hehehe..
happy blogging everyone and have a blessed Thursday! Thanks for visiting!

CHI-TADA

I googled ..... and googled..... and googled for a good recipe this morning and I was enticed with the Chicken Afridata recipe. When I am browsing for recipes, I don't really follow everything on the instructions hehehe. I usually combine two sources of the same recipe. Like this menu that we ate for lunch. I combined the recipe I got from kusina ni manang blog and the one that i found on another source (forgot the name, sorry). Anyhow, here's the ingredients:
Here's the marinade chicken: I used remix fresh lemon cocktail and soy sauce.

Now here's the yummylicious chitada (my version of chicken afritada)!

Note: Kusina ni Manang don't call for chicken broth and tomato sauce but the other source does, so I made my own hehehe... The outcome of the combi recipe was awesome!
