PuTuSiLog

PuTuSiLog

PuTuSiLog is my acronym for this typical Filipino breakfast. Pusit is for fried crunchy dried squid, Tuyo is for fried dried sardine, Sinangag is for fried rice with load of garlic and ItLog for fried egg. Thus you have PuTuSiLog. This breakfast reminds me of my childhood. My grandma or sometimes aunts, depending who were babysitting us kids (mom was working)  would make this whenever possible. Typical dip could be sliced of fresh tomatoes or vinegar , both to balance the salt(i)ness of sa

Sushi challenge

This is one of those few foods I will surely not make for my husband as he does not eat raw fish. And this is exactly what I prepared for myself  for the first time last week when my husband was in the US for a business trip. The idea of making it actually begun when I saw Kris' (a blogger friend) sushi rolls which looked so nice! And then Girlie, another friend challenged me to make them. I simply followed an online sushi making video and I must admit that I enjoyed making this. My fill

Cool Baby Slings!

Ever seen country singer Cheryl Crow with her baby infant? Or No Doubt's Gwen Stefani with her baby on her body? Yep, big stars use them too for their babies. I rather like looking at their photos where they seem proud to have their babies in baby slings, carrying them around, showing them to all their fans. If you are like those Hollywood stars who aren't satisfied with pushing their babies around in buggies, try some wonderfully designed baby slings! But I'm sure there many reasons why mother

I'm now a believer of those boxes

As much as possible I prepare our meals from scratch. Because that's what I grew up with. Fresh ingredients = better tasting food. But in these fast paced - busy life, I learned to turn into those mixes in boxes offered in groceries. And to be honest the first time I used it, I became a believer and though not regularly, I sure use them especially when I don't have the time to do some shopping. I had few pieces of frozen Alaskan salmon, 300grams of fresh beans. So this Sunday evening, I prepa
