Chocolate Kiss Cafe Triple Treat

If  in case you are undecided to choose what cake you want for dessert, the Chocolate Kiss Cafe Triple Treat cake sampler is the best choice. I wish other restaurants will offer similar samplers.

Just the perfect end to a wonderful summer al fresco meal beside a pond filled with pond lights.

This place came to mind , of course

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

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

I did my morning rounds today and I was surprised that one old lady talked to me while I was walking. She said “tagal mong nawala” which roughly translates “I haven’t seen you for a long time”

Yes, it took me a while a looong time before I decided to hit the pavements again. From  my last walk, it was December 13, based on the pic on my camphone.

My reason for going back is not because I aim to run the shortest distance there is in a marathon (I would get there in due time, ) but because I need to have a fitness routine which can make me feel invigorated at least, for the rest of the day.

Lately I have noticed that I have been feeling lethargic and I could sleep before one can even finish saying “natural sleep aids” which I probably have no need of. I can go into a sleep-induced oblivion at the drop of a hat.

I don’t think this is because I wake up at an ungodly hour because my eldest daughter needs to be fetched by the school service early nor it has to do with spending time in front of this gadget.

For now, I will will myself to take those little steps to be healthier.

I have written about how to go about reunions and keeping the conversation going with relatives to avoid being in an awkward position or have a conversation lull.

This goes the same with elementary and high school reunions, if I may say so. Yes, you and your classmates can’t possibly talk about how fat you were when you were in third grade or how someone else looked awkward wearing his/her Christmas program costume, much as you can’t possibly talk endlessly about your children or insurance quotes or your golf handicap unless they seem genuinely interested.

What do you do then? Sing. Yes, sing and have fun bashing the karaoke

(Just make sure you don’t disturb the neighbors too much though)

Hubby said one time that perhaps we might be needing a treadmill (or other fitness equipment like a rowing machine) at home just in case the weather doesn’t permit me to go out and have my morning share of on-again and off-again fitness regimen. He might be right and the presence of one would not excuse me even if I woke up late

I so need to go back to my early morning routine because the cool days haven’t been kind to me and my resolve to be fit: walking up late and doing a bit of tasting those baked goodies I have been baking does not make me a thinner person

Oh well, after the Christmas season, as we all say. Sigh.

Last month, I blogged about Kraft Eden cheese and the goal to cook 5,000 dishes to top India for the Guinness world record for the most number of dishes cooked.

And they did! 5,845 dishes cooked with cheese, woohoo! So we show the world that we Filipinos are cheesy, huh?

Check the Kraft Eden YUMM Sarap ng Buhay site for some cooking ideas and if you want to contribute a recipe. Mine is the cheesy turon

Now I am off to read about NC health insurance as a favor for a friend

Oh by the way, do we have FF next Friday?
