Announcement!

Hello guys, miss me? I have been out of the online world since October 31, not because I want to or need to but because my old and trusted PC broke down and everything that hubby did failed to revive it, I think my rustic and beaten PC had left me for good this time. I don't know when I'll be back, as I don't know when I can buy another computer set, we're not that keen into spending at the moment as our only son's birthday is coming up as well as Christmas. But I do hope it'll be soon...

I'm writing this post with the help of a cellphone, I don't think I can blog without a regular PC, this short post took me an hour or more to do *sigh*.

Forget me not...

Starbucks

Thanks to my son's love of photography or his love of tinkering with the camera I have something to post for Food Friday and Food Trip Friday *grins*.

We had these a few days ago when we went out to search for a cool Halloween outfit, we didn't find any but we enjoyed our time out together. My bro insisted on meeting us in the mall so instead of wandering around drooling over stuff, we decided to rest and chill in Starbucks. The tallest one was for hubby, it is a mocha latte (I think), the one in the middle was for our baby, it's just your usual hot choco, and the smallest one was mine, cappuccino baby.

small, medium, large *grins*

The family that have coffee together, stays together *lol*.

GoNuts Donuts

Box of 6 (Choco Nutty Sprinkle, Rocky Road and Choco Frost)

This is what we brought home for nanay and tatay when we (hubby, son, bro and I) went to mall to buy some groceries and play in Timezone and WOF, I miss that piso-game, the one where you drop a 1-peso coin and hope that luck will help you win, I love playing that because I can have lots and lots of redeemable tickets in a jiffy, though it doesn't work like that most of the time *grins*.

Doughnuts is always a safe choice for pasalubong, my nanay might not have a sweet tooth but she enjoys a bite or two of pastries and doughnuts and my tatay is a food lover in its truest sense, having served as a chief cook in a cargo ship his entire career might have a hand at that, he eats all kinds of food, walang tinatapon ika nga.

Pinoy Street Food: Lumpiang Sariwa

Lumpiang Sariwa - P25.00

One of the newest addition in a long list of Pinoy street foods is the lumpiang sariwa, it used to be found on restaurants and eateries around the country, as well as one of the most favorable dish in an event or celebratory party. But now, one does not need to go to long lengths to have a taste of lumpiang sariwa as it is now served by our local street peddlers. For 25pesos a pack (2 pieces of lumpia) it is a great deal, it may not taste as good as the one in restos or the ones made by our moms and grannies but if your craving heats up, it can help douse off the craving at least a little.

Red Ribbon's Cookies & Cream Cake

Red Ribbon Bakeshop
MC Square
Letre Road, Malabon City

Cookies and Cream (junior-size) - P355.00

a closer look

I asked hubby to buy the White Forest cake but when he got home, this was what he had in hand, White Forest seemed to be the trend that day as the branch in MC lost stock early. I will get my hand on that cake one of these days, but till then, let's focus on the Cookies and Cream. As expected, it was good, I, actually liked it better than S'mores.

Pepsi Max

Have you seen the new PET bottle of Pepsi Max, if you already did and have known that it is in existence good for you, coz you see, I just discovered it. And I find the bottle so cute that's why I decided to post it here.

I, actually, bought this in a recent trip to Enchanted Kingdom for 45pesos, I don't know how much it sells outside of the amusement park but I bet, it's much cheaper :)) Alam nyo na, mala-ginto kasi ang pricing sa mga ganung lugar dba?

Meatlover's Pizza from Pizza Hut

Pizza Hut's Meatlovers Pizza

Another free pizza, this time from my tatay. My son is on a roll, he aced another 2 quizzes last Monday thus two boxes of pizzas were ordered from Pizza Hut courtesy of his grandfather *grins*.

Story: When he got home from school last Monday, he immediately called tatay and nanay to tell them the good news, I thought my son was just happy and proud of himself. Less than half an hour later, our phone rang with my tatay on the other line asking (actually, he's telling) me to bring our butts back in Navotas as he already ordered the pizza that he promised my son. I didn't asked for details as in my heart, I know it already - after he hoodwinked his uncle into buying him a pizza last week (click to read the story), it was his lolo's turn to do so. Come to think of it, it's a good thing my son's playing this game with them and not with me, less expenses the better in my case *lol*.
