eating out

My family and I went out a few weeks ago to celebrate my MIL's birthday and it was decided that we eat out instead of letting the birthday celebrate cook. :)

We ordered different salads, a pizza, and spaghetti. Looks like I had too much carbo there, huh?! ;P

... a slab of steak would be perfect with that. In my own opinion, anyway. :D

I remember when my eldest son was born, hubby wanted to pass out cigars that day, but we couldn't find any cigar store in town! Well, we were in the province that time (Mindanao) and I guess in our area cigar (except maybe for the local ones ... like the one that my grandfathers used to smoke sometimes) wasn't that common. He didn't feel like passing out cigarettes, so we didn't give anything out that day. lol. Anyway, we had to move to another hospital the next day since they wanted to observe my newborn then; he wasn't as 'active' as they wanted him to be. Hubby and I were worried, but it was a good thing our worries were unfounded.

We returned home a week later, with our eldest. :)

breakfast/dinner

This was what my ten-year old son had (for lunch) when we went out last weekend ... we thought that their serving would be small; but believe me, we were surprised when they served us this dish! I think two persons could have easily shared this one (or maybe not, if you really have a big appetite, lol). It was a good thing our son was hungry ... he finished everything (except for a few olives from the salad which he wasn't too keen about); turned out he was still full after a couple of hours (we had a late lunch, around past three in the afternoon) so he begged to be excused come dinner time. :)

*he liked it so much he said he'd most probably order it again ... LOL

I wonder why they hacked my site ...

As most of my food friday friends know, my other blog was hacked a few months ago. It is still there, considered as one of those 'attack sites'. It really gets to me, but I haven't done anything since I still don't have the time to dabble with it much, plus the fact that I really have no idea how to go about fixing it. Am not so sure if an online backup was really necessary, but I guess it would have helped. Am thinking of deleting everything on that blog/site and starting anew. But am hesitant since am not sure what would happen if I do that. Or would deleting my files there help anything at all? Or would those darn trojans still be around after I delete my files?

Troubling ... sigh.

Personalizing ...

Next month hubby's vehicle will supposedly be "changed" to another one. That's because it has been about five years now since he's had it and he has almost completed his payments. It was on an 'option-to-own' plan and I think that their company is real generous to be offering him that option. I know some companies offer the same plan since I believe that it is an incentive for the future car owners to take care of the company vehicles diligently.

We already have an idea what the next car is going to be, and that's why we are also checking up on some car accessories; both online and offline. We want to personalize the car just so it wouldn't look 'generic', but not too much or else it would look like there's a fiesta going on! ;P

When I was in college I had to read through a lot of books (of course, that didn't mean I really memorized all the written words! lol) and somehow we can't help but sift through some topics like the automated external defibrillator (AED). Even if I was studying then to be a veterinarian that didn't mean we wouldn't be touching on products intended for humans. In fact, we usually touched on products for humans since most of the gadgets for animals were not that available, then. Sure, in other countries it was available, but for us here in a developing nation we had to improvise; a lot.

Somehow that made me realize that most of the people then were not that concerned when it came to animals. BUT, that is slowly being changed; and am really glad. :)

bibingka

Bought a box of bibingka (rice cake) when we last went to the weekend market ... tasted quite nice, though not to "die for". :)

It has been more than a year now since I gave birth, and at the rate that I am gaining weight (I just love eating! lol) I think I might be needing one of those weight loss pills you can see online! Though of course I have to consider which would be the safest one to buy; and that's why researching about them is important. I honestly haven't tried one, yet, but who knows? Maybe I might be needing one ... soon! :P

malunggay chips and suman

Two weekends ago hubby and I went to one of those "weekend markets" (I call them that since they are only around during weekends) near our place; we prefer going there (even if sometimes the products are a bit expensive) since the products being sold there are relatively fresher compared to, say, when you go to a supermarket. Plus I get to find there some food products that are quite 'new' for me, too ... like the malunggay (moringa) chips and the pinipig suman above. Forgot how much each costs, but I wasn't impressed by the taste. The chips tasted a bit weird and had a slightly bitter after-taste (but it was crunchy) while the pinipig suman looked like it had too much food coloring (btw, that brown thingy on the suman is muscovado sugar)! LOL

*ps. so sorry for not dropping by last week ... something came up. but will do better this week, promise! thanks, everyone! :)

paltik:superpoke pet

Well, yup, that is the name of my pet in one of those facebook games, super poke pets. Sometimes when I wake up early in the morning (because I had to give my son a bottle of milk), I also try to check up on Paltik. Not much, though since it's a good thing he doesn't die when I don't feed him for days! lol. I don't think I have dark circles under my eyes, since I can't help but sleep after I feed my son; taking care of a one year old could be draining, specially if you don't have a nanny. That's why I try to make it a point to sleep whenever I can ... too bad it does take time away from the computer, but I think that that's the logical choice. I'll have all the time that I want (to dabble with the computer and take nature shots) when my baby's older. :)
