You all know that I love the the combination of pesto + bacon in a pasta dish.  You can back read on the pasta recipes I've featured in the blog and you will find that these ingredients have been reused so often, hehe! That's because everyone who have tried my pesto bacon pasta think that it is a great meal.  There's a lot of flavors going on in this dish and of course, who ... READ MORE

Baked Dory with Sun-Dried Tomato Pesto and Cheese

I have a confession to make:  the only fish that I can cook is the dory fish! I like that it's readily available in the supermarket - cleaned and vacuum-sealed.  It doesn't have tinik and most of all, hindi sya malansa. During the lenten break last week,  I made sure to stock on some dory fish to cook at home since we decided not to go on a lenten 'holiday' this year.  I ... READ MORE

Our dinner two Sundays ago: I got lots of "Likes" when I posted this photo at my personal Facebook account.  It's the bacon, I think, which caught everyone's attention hehe!

#throwback to June 2019 when we visited Windsor Ca #throwback to June 2019 when we visited Windsor Castle as part of our 9-day tour of UK and Scotland. We were also able to tour the many grand rooms inside the castle, and then walked to St. George's Chapel. Watching the funeral of Prince Philip yesterday made me reminisce about our UK trip. The Quire inside St. George Chapel (where the mass and lowering of the coffin were held) looked so wide on-screen. But actually, when I was there I was surprised to find that black-and-white checkered aisle so narrow and compact. I have no souvenir photos of me inside the Quire because taking photos is strictly prohibited. But there's a beautiful altar behind it where we offered candles and prayers. RIP Prince Philip 🙏 #England #windsorcastle
Watched too many 'Top Chef' episodes this week at Watched too many 'Top Chef' episodes this week at Netflix, so I was craving for duck tonight 😁 The Aburi Duck from @ikomaistreet is the perfect choice for me because I prefer the usual smoked duck but this one's half broiled only, so it's still a little pink but very tender, with very clean taste. I love the sauce and the brown Japanese rice that came with it. Will definitely order this again (and share na with @ajdeleon77😜)
@_catcaaat now likes to invade my work station, ma @_catcaaat now likes to invade my work station, making faces or parking himself beside (or over!) my laptop as if saying, 'Hey, take a break.' I think he can sense it if I'm stressed, and needed a break from my work laptop. Anyway, get down na Catcaaat!

Today's a good day to post about #quarantea #teacu Today's a good day to post about #quarantea #teacupslove or, in this case, my new coffee mug from the #ormocana line of @topiarythestore. The Kalachuchi painting in the mug is really pretty and relaxing to look at, making this my favorite morning cup now. Thank you Ms. @hephepyeye for helping me get the mugs! The other one I gave to my mommy 😊
