I am the Cook

Jun 5th 2010greenbucksFamily Matters & Food and Dining

I spent some time organizing my photos and saw the re-sized ones I have used in my blogs. I noticed that most food photos I have can be found in this blog and this other blog.

I may have to think about the best diet pill even if I am just looking at these photos 😀

I am not a great cook, nor do I pretend to be one. I can cook, yes, but my cooking is “just right” for the family’s consumption. It is when the children say that they like the food I prepared that makes my heart swell.

Oh, they would rather eat home-cooked meals they tell me.

Dinner Invite

We have been invited to dine with hubby’s relatives tonight. It’s his cousin’s belated birthday celebration along with this cousin’s mom’s birthday. Double celebration means food, food and more food.

I know it doesn’t help that I just saw a noxycut page last night and that this household sure knows how to cook super yummy dishes. Guilt trip to the max it will be when we go there tonight.

And yeah, I think we are going back a week from now because they will be having their patron feast celebration 😀

Pata Tim

Pata Tim (Braised Pork?) is one yummy food to eat especially when the meat is tender and flavorful.

This dish is one of the absolute favorites with my husband’s family. I like it too but I do not attack this with the same intensity that I used too. I can almost hear this pork fat-laden food cry “you need fat burner!” every time I take bites 😀

This is actually a treat for us since we don’t usually have pork at home. This is a good excuse to have a glass (or two) of ice cold Coke. 😉

Warm Buttered Bread

My youngest daughter loves warm buttered bread. I would like to say I do too even if I know I should be eating foods that burn fat or food that do not store unwanted and unwelcome fat 😀

Don’t we just love warm buttered bread with a serving of creamy soup? Or perhaps with a serving of pasta with your favorite sauce? Or maybe with your favorite beverage whatever it might be?

One of my favorites when I was young: Prima buttered toast. Do you still remember this? Meron pa ba nito? 😀
