Onion rings.
“Ewww… the smell” as some people would react.
These onion rings can be used for frying crispy onion rings, or used as pizza toppings or for the Filipino version “bistek”.
Our own version of the bistek has no beef strips but has bangus back fillet strips marinated in soy sauce, oyster sauce, and ground pepper cooked with onion rings. Yum!

Freshly baked pizza, anyone?
What pizza toppings do you like best? (full photo here)
I love green bell peppers, onions, lots of cheese, tomatoes, pineapple and olives. Yum!

We saw a humongous house beside my parents’ house being built. It sits on two properties one of which was a former rice mill.
My mother said it was worth PhP50,000,000! I can’t believe its that expensive!Just last week, a client of my BIL who is an interior designer gave him a nod to look for a beachfront property/place to build a resort with that price.
Much as I wanted to, I was not able to take a decent photo of the house because we were in transit and because the fences were high.
Imagine that, in dollars that would be worth more than $1,000,000!
The hubby and I were discussing what kind of construction materials were used in that house to have it worth that much.
The interiors would be so lavish I guess, with branded materials that mean quality like Kohler sinks or fixtures from other countries. Like what? Italian ceramic tiles or maybe granite and marble from New England?
One thing for sure though, I want to see how it is in the inside once its finished.
As if I can go inside the house 😀
