Mussels with Garlic Butter

Mar 6th 2009Food Friday & Philippines & Photos & Visualizations

Below is one of my eldest daughter’s favorite weekend Sunday lunch fare, mussels with butter that has garlic bits and parsley.

Finely chop fresh garlic and fresh parsley and add to butter to make the butter mixture. I think I used spreadable margarine with this batch and fresh basil bits instead of parsley. Works any way, the taste is still good enough.

You can use a food processor for easier handling of the butter mixture. I used this to make it. This mixture can be refrigerated and used with bread that can be paired with any pasta dish.

Homebaked Brownies

Jan 2nd 2009Food Friday & Money Watch & Photos & Visualizations

True to my plan to spend frugal Christmas, I was able to bake several batches of brownies to give away to relatives and for my children to munch on.I found these easier to bake than the cookies I planned to do first.

I was even able to bake some butter loaves to give to the children who come a-knocking on the gates on Christmas day for some “aginaldo”. We were even able to give to those plying the streets when we went to hubby’s aunt’s for lunch on the 25th.

Anyway, here are some of the brownies I baked in a photo taken on Christmas eve:

Here’s wishing you all a bountiful 2009 filled with joy, peace and love 🙂

That Extra Slice

Dec 5th 2008Food and Dining & For Information & Photos

With Christmas around the corner, one of the foremost things in people’s list of to-do during these holidays would be parties and eating, after shopping.

I have something that is bugging me.

During parties, the main meals are fabulous yes, but if one is asked, its them dessert that makes the eating even more fun. Would one get that extra slice of cake? An extra brownie fudge? An extra scoop of ice cream? An extra topping?

How much could one indulge with that extra something?

Surely its not that bad at all considering its the time to be happy. But on the other hand, one should also think about the consequences about having something extra.

I’m sure, a lot of Hydroxycut reviews will be read after the season is over.

One word of caution though, let’s not over-indulge 😉

What Would You Choose?

Aug 22nd 2008Around the Metro & Blogging101 & Food and Dining & Food Friday & Philippines & Photos

You get out of the church after the Sunday mass and you see a table laden with these goodies. What would you choose? The green mangoes? What about the sampaloc candies? Or the sweet sticky yema? Hmmm…the nuts probably. Or the suman.

Take your pick or these would soon be bought by hungry church-goers.
