Kumain kami ng: Roman - Lechonsilog (gusto sana nya ng extra egg kaya lang di naman nagbebenta)                  Alvin - Tapsilog Ako-Mixsilog                                              na binili namin jan sa Chaboy's

Bubble Tea

Bubble Tea,Trinoma

Kani Salad (P110) and Strawberry Tea Slush (P90)

Masarap yung Kani Salad kaya lang kulang sa Mango.Si ate um-order ng Lemon Tea Slush.kaya lang parang hindi nya nagustuhan kasi daw ay di masyado ma-ice.Sa totoo lang natunaw lang ito kasi kain sya ng kain ng order nyang Yakisoba

Sooooooooooooo sleeeepyyyyy....

Madaling-araw

Isang bonggang-bonggang madaling araw na naman dito sa shop.Eto,akala mo alas-dos pa lang ng hapon kung magsipaglaro ang mga iskolar ko.As usual, alas-sais na naman ako ng umaga magsasara ng shop.Maibalita ko nga kung ano ang iba pang mga pangyayari ngayon..

1.Medyo humuhupa na ang mga butlig ni Ykaie.Ang bagong palayaw ni ate sa kanya ay batik.

2.Gawa na ang computer #8 na nag-looping start kaninang umaga.Salamat kay hubby dear (lab yu).

3. Na-discover ko na maraming pantal sa legs si Alvin ngayon.Kamot ng kamot,nagsusugat na tuloy.Sinabihan ko sya na huwag kamutin at mawawala ang pagka-flawless nya.

4.Maraming naglalaro ng Phoenix RAN dito sa shop ngayon.Hay,ang makalokohan ng mga itoh.

5.Si Ate Pinky ang katabi ngayon ni Ykaie dahil na-Hypoglycemia si mother dahil sa wala na naman syang gana lumafang kagabi.

6.Nami-miss ko ng katabi si Ykaie kahit na kaninang hapon ay magkatabi kaming natulog.

7.Hindi pa ako nagme-merienda.ano kaya ang kakainin ko??

8.Si tatay nag-kakape sa may gate.naka-brief lang..ahaha

South Beach Pizza

Well, we eat lots of pizzas.Period.I found a great way to eat pizza while on the SBD.Thanks to What geeks eat,a food blog.I found the link from Kalyn's Kitchen.The use of chicken breast as pizza crust was pure genius!

INGREDIENTS of my version of the South Beach Pizza:
skinless chicken breasts
1/2 cup grated low fat mozzarella
1/2 medium white onion, sliced thiny
1/2 Bell Pepper sliced into strips
grated Parmesan cheese
Pizza sauce

Butterfly chicken breast at it’s thickest part in order to make it all the same thickness.Bake it until cooked.Place chicken in a tray.Spread pizza sauce on top.Add parmesan cheese,onions,bell pepper. Bake until cheese and toppings are bubbly and golden brown.

This taste soooo good.Sinawsaw pa nga namin to ni ate sa sour cream.Sa susunod na gumawa ako nito ay lalagyan ko na ng bonggang-bonggang ham and mushroom at patitikimin ko na rin si Alvin.

South Beach Beef Broccoli


Nagluto ako ng Beef Broccoli kagabi kaya lang dahil sa SBD (South Beach Diet) nga kami ni ate,syempre kailangan palitan yung ibang ingredients.


INGREDIENTS:
200g sirloin,cut into strips
2 small head of broccoli
3/4 c water
1/2 beef cube
soy sauce
artificial sweetener
1/2 onion,diced
5 cloves garlic, minced
2 tbsp canola oil

Fry 3 cloves garlic,set aside.Saute onion and garlic until onion is transparent.Add beef,stir fry it for a few seconds then add water,beef cubes,artificial sweetener and soy sauce.Simmer until beef is tender then add broccoli.Simmer until broccoli is cooked.Put into serving bowl and garnish with fried garlic.

Actually,tinantya-tantya ko lang yung sukat ng mga ingredients jan.dapat may oyster sauce itong luto na ito at dapat din na palaputin ng cornstarch ang sauce kaya lang bawal ang carbs.

German Measles

We just got home from the hospital, may mga butlig-butlig kasi si Ykaie.I thought na effect lang yun nung measles vaccine nya last August 8 but it turned out na German Measles pala.(Vaccine for GM is given to children 1 yr and above).
According to my research:
"Rubella — commonly known as German measles or 3-day measles — is an infection that primarily affects the skin and lymph nodes. It is caused by the rubella virus (not the same virus that causes measles), which is usually transmitted by droplets from the nose or throat that others breathe in. It can also pass through a pregnant woman's bloodstream to infect her unborn child. As this is a generally mild disease in children, the primary medical danger of rubella is the infection of pregnant women, which may cause congenital rubella syndrome in developing babies."
"Rubella cannot be treated with antibiotics because antibiotics do not work against viral infections. Unless there are complications, rubella will resolve on its own."
Yun din naman ang sabi ng pediatrician.Mawawala lang daw ng kusa within 3-5 days.Nakakapag-alala lang, kasi naman ang pangalan ay GERMAN MEASLES.Parang nakakatakot pakinggan.Parang ang lala-lala ng sakit. Wawa pa naman si Ykaie pag may sakit.
Naku,di lang halata pero maraming butlig si Ykaie sa mukha.Just click on the picture para makita nyo..

Some pictures taken last July

Wala lang,pictures nung birthday ni Alvin.We went out with his parents and ate Arlene.













Pictures on our way to Aristocrat.8 months pa lang si yk yk jan..
 
Hahaha..tingnan nyo si Ykaie,nakadipa,ayaw pa-picture..


Yan,nag-smile na...

After ng check-up ni Ykaie kahapon...

kung saan niresetahan sya ni Dr.Aquino ng Amoxycillin dahil namamaga raw yung lalamunan nya.Alvin and I decided to go out for dinner.Minsan na lang kasi kaming lumabas na family tapos monthsary pa namin..haha.Kaya kahit na nagdilim ang langit at umulan ng malakas,hala!, sumakay kami ng taxi papuntang SM The Block.
Nung isang araw pa rin kasi nag-crave si Alvin ng Ramen kaya sa Kimono Ken na lang kami kumain.
We ordered Shoyu Ramen, Bacon and Asparagus Maki, Ebi Tempura and Beef Teriyaki .
I wasn't able to take pictures kasi medyo busy...si Ykaie kasi.Akalain mo ba naman bago kami kumain nag-poopoo?? Ahaha, buti na lang may sariling banyo ang Kimono Ken.
Kaya medyo pagapsensyahan na ang mga pictures..Naghanap lang ako ng mga kamukha...
Well, certainly was cheat day na naman.Buti na nga lang sa South Beach Diet madaling bumalik on track. Eto,Day 1 na naman.Hehehehe.
Hay,ang sarap talaga ng family dinner.
Si Ykaie,gustong-gusto yung soup.Kaya lang siguro medyo masakit pa rin yung throat nya kaya konti lang din yung nakain.Di nya nga gusto yun Tempura eh.Normally pa naman matakaw yun...
Siguro,na-miss din ni Alvin yung mamasyal kaming family kasi gusto nya magkakadikit kaming tatlo habang bumababa ng escalator.Buhat nya na nga si Ykaie,akbay pa nya ko..

♥♥♥ Awwww

Pancake House

Nung  "cheat day" namin...I think tuesday yun.Nagpunta kami sa SM para bumili sana ng Sugarfree Peanut Butter...naging cheat day na lang kasi ba naman parang ang sarap-sarap kumain kapag nasa mall ka.
Kumain kami sa Pancake House.
I ordered the Breakfast Steak: a piece of steak,sunny side up egg and garlic rice.
Super sarap ng garlic rice nila.
Ate had Rib-Eye Steak: includes a siding of mashed potatoes and veggies.

Para kay Ykaie "daw"(sabi ni ate) nag-order din kami ng Classic Country Medley: 2 pcs. Classic Pancake with Country Sausage and Orange Juice
 
Gusto na ni Ykaie kumain

Ykaie

Thank God Ykaie's better now.Di ko na sya dinala sa hospital kahapon kasi pinuntahan sya ni Kuya Noel dito.Siguro,one reason kung bakit di sya gumagaling agad kasi she's not getting the correct dose of her medicine.Di nya kasi gusto ang lasa,tapos sinusuka nya kapag pinipilit mo syang painumin.
Nung dumating si kuya,niresetahan sya ng suppository na paracetamol.Sus! meron na palang ganon ngayon.Siguro ginawa nga ito para sa mga batang di mapainom ng gamot.Ilalagay na lang sa pwet.

Kalurky!Naalala ko tuloy nung bata pa ako.Nilalagayan din ako ni Tita Eva ng suppository kasi constipated ako.Nyay!!

Yun nga lang kaka-awa kasi ayaw ng bata ng ganun.Pero sabi ni Kuya di naman daw masakit yun.

Ang importante,wala na lagnat si Ykaie.

South Beach Chicken Cordon Bleu & Tomato Basil Soup

Amidst the chaos yesterday,nagluto parin ako ng dinner...



Yung sa chicken,parang Chicken Cordon Bleu lang yung ginawa ko , I put ham and cheese inside the chicken bago ko bi-nake.Syempre medyo bland yung lasa,ni walang breading and dipping sauce ganun lang pero yung Tomato Basil Soup naman,masarap.I just adapted from the recipes I've read.Here are the ingredients:

1 canned diced tomato (I used Hunt's)
1 cup fresh basil leaves,chopped
2 cloved of garlic,minced
1 onion, chopped
2 cups Chicken stock/chicken cubes & water
grated Parmesan cheese for garnish
2 tbsp olive oil
Salt and pepper to taste

Saute garlic and onion in olive oil until onions are transparent.Add basil leaves and canned tomato.
Stir gently. Add chicken stock and bring to a boil.Scoop into serving bowls and garnish with grated parmesan cheese.Serve warm.

Good morning pa din..

Hindi nga ako napuyat sa shop,kaya lang maysakit si Ykaie kahapon.Namerwisyo na sya simula 1am.kaya heto,kulang na naman ako sa tulog.I assumed yesterday na yung sinat nya eh side effect nung measles vaccine last last week.Sabi kasi nung pediatrician,it's possible na lagnatin sya after 7-10 days,as a side effect nung vaccine.Pero kaninang mga 3am,parang there's something na masakit sa mouth nya.I'll take her to the hospital later.

Grabe, super hirap ng feeling kapag ganito.Kapag mommy ka,you know you can do anything for your child.Kahit di ka na matulog,kumain o anu pa man.Ang hirap yata nung antok na antok ka na tapos pinapa-tahan mo pa si baby,reassuring her that you are with her and everything will be okay.O kaya yung antok na antok ka na pero kinukuwentuhan mo pa si baby ng masasayang kwento para lang malibang sya to take her mind off the things that are hurting her. You try to sound upbeat but inside naaawa ka sa kanya.Hindi mo kasi alam kung anong masakit sa kanya.Kung pwede nga lang na ilipat na lang sayo kung ano man yung nararamdaman nya,gagawin mo.

I got scared kasi antok na antok na ako kagabi...what if makatulugan ko sya tapos biglang tumaas yung temperature nya?What if buhat-buhat ko sya tapos madapa kami or mahulog sa hagdan? What if di ko sya nare-reassure that I'm there for her ?

But everything turned out fine.Bumaba na yung temperature nya.Ayun,she's sleeping with her lola now. I had to get up at 8am because I had to open up the computer shop.

Yung mag ganitong experiences? It's wonderful and scary at the same time.

Bangerla

Wala akong picture ng dinner ngayong gabi.We had Grilled Chicken Salad.Wala akong lakas.Paano ba naman super bangerla ako't may mga overnighters nga kagabi na 6am na nag-out.Can you imagine?! 6 AM!! Natulog lang ako ng 6:45am tapos open na ulit yung shop ng 9am.Grabe!!
Pero di ko na nakayanan,natulog ulit ako ng 10am...bumangon ng 2pm.Natulog ng 4pm...bumangon ng quarter to 6pm.Nagkape.Naligo.

At eto na ako ngayon.Live and Aliive!!! Hehehe.

Meron ulit akong overnighters tonight..Business as usual.

Inaantok yata ako..
Waaaaahhh,kailangan ko ng makukukot!!
Paano na ang South Beach Diet?!

Friday, August 22, 2008

May booking ako......

It's friday night!!! daming tao dito sa shop...
I have overnighters..Usually,I close at around 1-2am pero ngayon up all night ako......
aadiiiikkk!!!

Chaikofi

Isa munang commercial........
Bago kami nag-start mag-South Beach Diet.Nag-try muna kami ni ate na kumain sa Chaikofi. Nakalimutan ko lang itong i-post.

Matagal ko na ngang gusto kumain dito kasi parang ang cute ng theme ng resto.Yellow & Black.
Tapos mukhang masarap yung food.
Combo Meal yung inorder namin ni Ate..
 
Crab and Mango Salad
I ordered Pasta & Sandwich  Combo Meal with free Iced Tea.
 
Chicken Pesto and Crab Sandwich (P199)
 
Ate's order was Pomodoro with Chicken Salad Sandwich (P199)
Haha,bawas na yung sandwich......matakaw!
Mukhang masarap yung mga inorder namin pero parang di ko nagustuhan yung lasa.Hindi ko alam kung dahil busog na ako o talagang di ko sya nagustuhan.Well,baka naman masarap yung iba nilang food.Siguro I'll give this place another try to see kung gusto ko ang lasa ng food nila.

Porkchops and Stuffed Baked Tomato

yan ang dinner tonight..Sobrang favorite ni Alvin ng porkchops..kaya kahit na nagkakainisan kami kanina...


Yung porkchops.Tinimplahan ko lang ng salt,pepper at calamansi juice then I fried it in Canola oil.
Yung mga taba..kinain lahat ni Alvin..Ahaha.
Lagoooootttt......

Baked Stuffed Tomato
INGREDIENTS:

4 plum tomatoes,halved lengthwise
3 ounces shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese (1/2 cup)
1/4 roughly chopped fresh basil leaves
2 tbsp freshly grated parmesan cheese
1 garlic clove, minced
Salt and freshly ground black pepper

Heat oven to 400° F 
Scoop out the inside of each tomato half with a melon baller and roughly chop the scooped pulp.Combine tomato pulp,mozarella,basil,parmesan,garlic and a pinch of salt and pepper.
Place tomatoes,cut side up, on a baking sheet.Spoon in tomato mixture and bake until cheese is melted and lightly browned,about 10 minutes.Serve warm.
This recipe was taken from The South Beach Diet Quick & Easy Cookbook by Dr.Agatston 

Hay naku,sarap nung baked tomatoes.Amoy na amoy yung basil sa kusina habang niluluto.Kaya lang since di ako nakabili ng fresh basil (dahil mahal..nyahaha).Yung dried na McCormick na lang ang ginamit ko.But it turned out just fine.

Ti-nry ko kunan ng picture ng may flash..kaya lang nagmukhang radioactive yung food..ahaha
 

Super BAd DAy

Hindi ako mapakali.Hindi ako mapalagay.I have this uncanny feeling or maybe it's just a heavy feeling.It doesn't have any reason.It's just.......there. I dunno. Maybe I'm just PMS-ing.Maybe not.Maybe,I'm just tired.....yeah,I think I am tired.
I'm worried about Alvin,I also think that he's tired.Tapos ngayon ayaw pa mag-start nung computer # 6. Ayun,nililinis muna nya bago gawin.Wala pa syang sleep dahil kagagaling lang nya sa trabaho.
Wawa naman......masungit pa naman yun kapag ganun.

At pag nagsusungit pa naman yun,ako numero unong napagsusungitan!
Haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaayyyyyyyyyyy...................

Eto,tinatanong mo ayaw sumagot.Paano ko kaya malalaman kung anong nararamdaman o iniisip nya kung ayaw nya sumagot?!Manghuhula ba ako??

Am I having a bad day??
Oo,I'm having a very bad day.Ewan kung ganahan pa ako magluto mamaya...

Konting update..

I wasn't able to post for a few days.Been kinda busy.Dami nangyari.Si Ykaie,nagbakasyon sa mga lolo't lola nya sa Malabon.Hinatid namin sya ni Alvin..tomorrow morning susunduin ko na sya.Been missing her smell for two days!I even hugged her pillows when I slept.




Alvin and I spent lots of quality time together! Nanonood pa nga kami ng A Very Special Love kanina.I know he really wants to watch that movie.Feel good movie ba,ganun.Maganda naman, kaya lang parang may kulang dun sa movie na di ko ma-pinpoint.

Hay,medyo pagod,pero okay naman.haha..Galit na nga si nanay kasi lagi daw namin iniiwan tong shop.Medyo matatagalan naman bago kami umalis ulit.Sabi ko nga kay Alvin,sa next na pasyal namin,gusto ko family day...kasama si Ykaie.

Isa pa...SOUTH BEACH DIET na ulit kami ni ate.....Need to lose 20 more pounds!!
Well,at least I will have more recipes to share!And South Beach Diet is not that bad since you don't starve and you also get to eat snacks..Yun nga lang,you don't get to eat carbs for 2 weeks,including carrots,corn,potatoes...and of course,no Sugar!

Well,we'll see.....

Ykaie's 9 months!

Every month,nagse-celebrate kami ng birthday ni Ykaie.We have cake & pasta or pancit.Syempre,binibilhan din namin sya ng damit tapos picture-picture.Last Sunday,we celebrated her 9th month.We ordered Chocolate Marjolaine from Red Ribbon Bakeshop and the pasta was Spaghetti with Squid Ink Sauce.Tapos naka Wonder Woman Costume si Ykaie..


Hay naku ang hirap na nya picture-an kasama ng cake nya ngayon at dinadaklot nya na.Unlike nung mga 1-4 months pa lang sya.

Toast Box

Before going home,what we did was........ano fa? kumain ulit..We went to Toast Box.Gusto ko kasi try yung Singaporean Kaya.I heard na masarap daw...so off we went.
Kaya is a Singaporean local spread mixture of egg and coconut.A little bit like leche flan mixed with matamis na bao or latik.It is also called Srikaya, from the word meaning "rich" in Malay based on its golden color.Sometimes it has a green or darker brown color depending on the pandan leaves mixed in it or the caramelization of sugar.

Filipino coconut jam is made from coconut cream and sugar or molasses.
 
I ordered the Toast Box Set: 1 Thick Kaya Toast, 2 soft-boiled eggs & kopi or teh
of course,I had kopi
 
Ate also ordered the Toast Box Set but had Thick toast with Pork Floss and condensed milk.She also ordered a specialty drink,  hot Horlicks,which is a malt drink.

Weird yung sawsawan ng eggs..parang soy sauce na may powdered chuva..haha..I don't know what it's called.

But it's good.Even the coffee taste different pero masarap.
Better try it if you happen to be in Trinoma.
