Have you watched the video circulated over the social media about the making of tuna and SkyFlakes nuggets? It terribly amazed me how far these goods have been. So, I made my first try just this morning and I want to brag it to you guys! lol! It's so timing since I have plenty of time to do this, no need to rush mga friends. :) It's a yummy thing good for snacks or for ulam. What are the ingredients? The count of ingredients is up to you or depends kung ilan ang taong nag-aantay ng luto mo (peace). For my version, here are the ingredients: 2 packs of SkyFlakes 1 egg 1 can of Century Tuna flakes in oil (180 grams) flour (measure depends on its stickiness) onion pepper salt Slice the onion, crush the SkyFlakes into small pieces. Mix all the ingredients and observe its stickiness if need to add more flour. You can form it according to your preference before frying it. I chose the Real Mayonaise as my dipping sauce with salt and pepper as an additiona...

From the time I fell in love with Korean movies, I became curious also with their cultures, food and drinks.  In all K-dramas I’ve seen, soju was always in action.  It really drives me crazy to smell its aroma. I want to try to know the taste and to feel the sensation once I gulp it down, so it crossed in my mind to try this kind of drink when I have time.  And yes! It was happened last Friday evening.  I was so excited to share it with my colleagues at home, unfortunately they were not around.  Well, I enjoyed the night alone with my grapefruit soju.  :-) Luckily, I got the grapefruit flavor; it's a  Jinro product  with less alcohol content like 13% only.  It's perfect for me since I am not really an alcoholic person. What is soju?  According to  wikipedia , soju is a clear, colorless distilled beverage traditionally made from wheat, rice and barley while starches like potatoes, sweet potatotes and tap...

Dealing with a tiring day is really uuurrrrggg...!! Exhausted mind and body. As if, all you want to do is to sleep and recharge. These were the feelings I had a few days ago after office hour. So I decided to drop by at Walter Mart to buy some foods to cook (cooking is my stress reliever. :)..).  Fortunately, I found this new product from Dutch Mill, Delight + Probiotic Drink. At first, I was hesitant to buy because I am really sensitive when it comes to taste. But then after 10 years of thinking,.. I bought this drink and immediately drinking it.  No sorry for me because it really tastes good. I can really taste the milk within. It delighted my night and relieved my stress feeling right away. It takes me back in my younger years every time I drink this milk. Yummy!                                                 Sorry.. my capture is no...

It takes time to share my story during election day. Super duper busy kasi talaga ang lola nyo. Umuwi ako ng province just to fulfill my duty as citizen of our country. Though, I am working here in Manila I opt to vote pa rin sa Province namin.. iba pa rin kasi talaga.  And also, this is my opportunity na to avail a vacation and spend time with my family. So what I did was.. I filed the May 6 as half day leave for my travel going back home. Medyo mahaba haba  din kasi ang byahe. Biruin nyo nman, I traveled from Makati to Batangas Port for almost 3 hours kasi naman traffic pa. Umalis ako ng office 2:00 P.M. and nakarating ng Batangas almost 5:00 P.M. From there, I waited again for a long hours kasi ang byahe pa ng barko is 9:00 P.M. and sadly masyadong Filipino time pala sila and the Bon Voyage started around 11:00 P.M. Pero okay lang because we arrived safe and sound at the Port of Odiongan, Romblon around 5:30 A,M. Hoorraaay!! At last! Sympre dahil bagong dating.. f...
