I Miss the Cold Mornings

Ang init!” is everyone’s mantra these days to think that summer just started the other day. The heat is unbearable and it seems that everyone wants to eat halo-halo and/or drink fruits shakes :D

Cooler destinations are crowded of course, especially those nice houses with Amish fireplaces where one can sit in front of to counter the cool weather.

Ahhh, I miss those cool mornings when I take my morning bath and my teeth are chattering. The heat is just so much and we are taking a lot of precautions so we will not get sick.

So, what are your summer destinations?

*ang init = it is so hot!

Taco Pizza

foodfriday

Have you tried Taco Pizza? The Taco Pizza in the pic below is a part of four flavored pizza from Burgoo.

Taco Pizza

Not exactly my favorite restaurant nor do I frequent the place,  it  just happened that I have several food photos from this place.

We love tacos. I remember making tacos before but I did not use tacos shells. I used tortilla chips instead.

Hmmm… I better look for a recipe again so we can have this on weekend.

Recipe-hunting would be more fun than reading about humidifier filters even if  the need for the latter is greater ;)

Of Mannequins and Their Sizes

When we went window shopping last Saturday, the kids were laughing at a certain mannequin at one of the sports stores  we went to. My youngest daughter remarked that it was “ang laki ng muscles!” or “the muscles are big!” I looked at the guy mannequin and laughed too, for he looked like he had too much hgh supplements :D

On second thought, the place was a sports store so a muscled mannequin wearing sports clothes is just fitting. In the clothes section, lady mannequins look like life-size barbie dolls and this does not represent the average woman’s size. Ahem, ahem.

I cringe when I see mannequins with big bosoms and ample hips. Do they really have to do that?

Roses and Kisses Cake from Red Ribbon

A different idea: for those wanting to propose their love to their loved one can give this cake as a gift and a carrier of something else. Wouldn’t it be nice to see loose diamonds on a ring on top of the cake? :D Woot!
