HAPPY NEW YEAR TO EVERYONE! MAY 2010 BRING US HAPPINESS AND GOOD HEALTH, CHEERS! It's January 1st and I thought I should start the year right by updating my foodblog. It's not a joke maintaining 6 blogs (each serving a purpose) but I must not complain because all 6 are my babies. Alright, let me share with you a side dish I made for our Christmas eve 2009 dinner (for 2). I made a 3-course dinner but decided not to post all at once. I found the recipe for this online 2 days before I was to

kitchen is open but….

Categorized Under: chitchat, cook's off, general by thess

I know that I haven't been updating but I have good reasons. Not much cooking is happening in my kitchen lately. That's the main reason. Secondly, I'm back in school and quite serious about it. I hope to be finished though within a year and come back to regular blogging. No, this blog isn't going on hiatus. I will try to blog whenever time permits. For now, I send you greetings from Holland.

Singing bowls

Categorized Under: buzz, chitchat, cook's off by thess

Have you ever heard of 'singing bowls'? No? Well, you might have (must have forgotten only) since these singing bowls are widely becoming popular amongst those who have experienced the bowls soothing sounds. (Health) practitioners use them, healers, spas, or even for (private) personal use and even amongst travelers who have seen them in places like Tibet - these singing bowls they can't do without from the first time they used them. Crystal Singing Bowls, is just one of the many bowls which yo

No fuzz mussels

Categorized Under: Home cooking by thess

I had to think of my maternal grandmother whenever I see mussels. I guess because when I was young, I found mussels or tahong as how we call it in Tagalog, a bit 'scary' because of its almost black shells. Scary and yet I always found my grandma's simple mussels soup (Tinolang Tahong, key soup ingredient is ginger) really good. Well, everything that my grandma made was good :) Anyhow, ginger is overpowering in taste, according to my husband...so I am careful when using the root, and would nev

Good thing though that science is quite advance these days (can you imagine how our forefathers suffered in pain? imagine no painkiller to take their pain away?)  so whether serious or not so serious condition, we receive treatment from the professionals. At times we even

Categorized Under: general by thess

Some serious updates! I've been away for quite sometime now, I know. It's just that there hasn't been much action in my kitchen the past weeks, read: NO NEW RECIPES because my husband's been asking for the same meal over and over again. And I do not want to repost recipes I have already posted. But I promise to do updates as soon as I get the chance. Hope all's been well with you all...all my 2 visitors :D
