Happy Morning = Excellent Breakfast

I woke up early with a good mood so I decided to cook yummy breakfast. A friend of mine went to Lucban Quezon last week so I asked her to buy me some Lucban longganisa. We met up last Sunday and she gave me 2 dozens of this garlic longganisa.


While having coffee, I cooked first the longganisa then I refried some leftover beef tapa (hehehe), fried some eggs and made a dippings of spicy vinegar with pepper and garlic.

Nelia's Palabok and Halo-Halo

Few weeks ago, I really craved for Razon's Halo-halo and asked my friends in facebook if where's the nearest branch near in Malabon. I was able to eat one when I got Jeffrey's report card in school. Last Good Friday, I was having a nap at around 2:30 when my hubby woke me up and asked me if I want to go to Nelia's. Haha! I immediately took a bath and we went there around 3:00 pm. I then realized that I don't need to go to SM everytime I want to eat a very good halo-halo because Nelia's is just a few minutes drive from our home.



Nelia's is famous for their Halo-halo and Palabok since 1960s. It's one of the hidden culinary treasures in Malabon, they are known also for their delicious Mechado and Kare-kare.



Special Halo-halo for P 70.00

The place is located in Barangay Tinajeros


For me, hubby and our 2 kids :)


Their palabok is way better than Nanay's!



Oh... I'm drooling now!


Jeffrey had plain congee with fried tofu ... it's good too!



Menu



By the way, they also have a branch in ... 31 D Talipapa Station 2, Boracay



We'll come back again...



Hope that my friends Peachy, Anney, Rome and Dj could try these treats too!

Supplies of Chocolates :)

Hayyy... how can I control myself from eating these sinful treats from my friends and family. From January up to this month we never run out of chocolates in our ref. Oh no, I'm not hoarding, hehehe... it's just that friends and family were coming back for a vacation in the country so as expected their pasalubong will always be chocolates. I was not able to take pictures of the previous "supplies", from my faves Toblerone, Cadbury, Lindt, Hershey's and many more... my diabetic hubby whose a chocolate fanatic did not deprive/refrain himself from eating, how's that?



What's next??? Me weighing 200 lbs?!!! Ouch!!!





Tuna Penne Pasta

I super love the Tuna Penne Pasta that my hubby cooked last week. We had some penne pasta sent by mom and tuna in cans too so he decided to cook those and it was really good. He just sauteed some garlic, tomatoes and onions in olive oil and then he add the tuna and a little amount of tomato sauce to put some color (he didn't like a pale one) and salt and pepper to taste and mix it with the pasta and that's it!


The kids love this too!

How lucky I am to have a husband who can really cook!


He couldn't find some parsley in the ref so he just put
leeks for garnishing :)

Lunch on Good Friday

We had a simple lunch last Friday, hubby went to Obando early in the morning to buy two sacks of fresh oysters, one for our family the other one is for my sister-in-law. Oysters are always on our table every Good Friday because it's my eldest son fave seafood. We had a hard time removing the shells but we had a great time eating those dipped in vinegar with lots of onions and siling labuyo... yum!


We also had boneless daing na bangus

(sawa na sa inihaw)



and glasses of Sunquick orange juice!

Wow! No meat on the table but we were all full after :)
