TGO Skinless Longanissa

Shop at More Food Adventures

Our former neighbor now lives far from us, but she usually drops by the apartment for deliveries of TGO products. Our favorite is the Pork Tapa. But she also gives us other products to try, like this TGO Skinless Longanissa. 

For fast cooking breakfast treats, TGO can deliver. But the taste differs per person. Like, for us at home,  the skinless longanissa is not that awesome for us, unlike the TGO Pork Tapa.

It tasted okay though.  Add fried eggs or an omelette, some tomatoes and fried rice, and it's good to go..

Selling T.L.E. Outputs

Shop at More Food Adventures

Our students in school sell their products and outputs in their T.L.E. culinary classes. A month ago, I purchased cupcakes from a group of students, and they are actually yummy. The flavors came in Carrot and Malunggay, and both were welcomed with delight by all of us who bought. 

I guess our faculty room had been known for buying all T.L.E. outputs that weeks ago, three groups came and sold us deboned Milkfish that was marinated in a vinegar solution, then fried to perfection. 

 Of all the students that came, this group was the only one I was able to photograph.. 

Thanks to them, we didn't have to go out to buy viand for lunch, lol.. And the prices were just reasonable..

The Clean Up Drive and Breakfast Part 2

Shop at More Food Adventures

Early this morning, we joined the city mayor's call for a Clean Up Drive. Our school participated, and we cleaned from the inside of the school, all the way to the capitol. 

It was a fun activity with my colleagues and friends. After that, we went for breakfast, as sponsored by our department head. 

Above was my choice of the breakfast menu.. It was actually part 2 of eating breakfast for me, lol. But I got famished after our activity, so I guess it was just alright..

Craving for Halo-halo

Shop at More Food Adventures

I can'r wait for the summer to start. My sister and I plan to go back to Camiguin, and have some fun. I read at my friend's blog that camps are great, so most probably, we would look for summer camps in the area. I sure would love for the kids to join one. Anyway, I also look forward to eating that halo-halo in Camiguin.. But of course, since it's yet so far, Chocolate Truffles will do.. I wonder if I could still find some at the supermarket..

I could almost taste it now..

That Guitar Cake..

Shop at More Food Adventures

Have you watched any of the episodes of The Cake Boss? I watched one several weeks ago and I was really amazed at one of the guitar cakes that somehow resembled Ibanez at musicians friend. It was pretty creative and the staff that did most of the work was even particular with the intricate designs.

I think she should have helped that contestant they had a few months past, where the guitar cake she made was a total wreck.

Lunch Today: Catered from Xavier University Canteen

Shop at More Food Adventures

Our department head asked us, non-2nd year teachers to volunteer for the recollection of the second year students of our school. So I was there to help out with directing the students to their areas, distributing the snacks of the facilitators and all other minor tasks necessary. Snacks were simple but hearty. 

For lunch, we had this Beef Stew with Chop Suey and rice.. The meal pack was placed in a box instead of the usual styro-container. I think that it is truly amazing doing business and at the same time protecting the environment.

Buy and Brew

Shop at More Food Adventures

I want coffee right now. But not just any ordinary coffee. I want brewed coffee. But here at home, I won't be able to enjoy that since I do not have an equipment for brewing coffee. If I have one, I could brew not only coffee, but even beer. Hehehe.. I saw this home brewing equipment at a website somewhere, and quite frankly, I think it's terrific to have one and use it whenever I feel like getting a freshly brewed drink. 

In the meantime, I think I can always go and buy bottled brewed drinks, chill them and enjoy them cold.

Pizza, Pasta, Chicken and Vampires

Shop at More Food Adventures

Yesterday was our movie marathon or should I say, Vampire Marathon, my sister and I. We watched five Vampire movies in just one sitting, and when we were about to watch our sixth, we got hungry. 

So we ordered delivery from Greenwich... Since we both have our Greenwich Ultimate Greencard, we decided to order a set from one of the coupons we were given prior to getting the greencard. For only four hundred sixty eight, and free delivery, we got three crunchy fried chicken.. 

I have been craving Lasagna for the past days, so I was very happy to have enjoyed two of the three snack size Lasagna that's included in the set. 

Of course, the Hawaiian pizza that came for free in the order.. yum!

We did enjoy the vampire movies on cable, plus our snack to dinner, and even had some for breakfast this morning.. hehehe

The Thanksgiving of a Collegaue

Shop at More Food Adventures

My officemate's thanksgiving dinner happened on that same evening when we had our birthday dinner for my father. So I didn't stay long, but left just when they were about to eat dinner. I already told him beforehand that I will leave and that I will not eat, but a glass of Green Mango Shake is all that I will order. 

Of course, I left after the presentation of my colleagues was done..

Dinner and a Birthday!

Shop at More Food Adventures

October twenty four had been a busy day for me. I had to go back and forth for signatures, see a lawyer, attended a meeting, did a group activity, and planned a simple dinner in a rush for my father as it was his birthday. Well, we didn't have to eat dinner out if we had food to cook in the house, lol. But I didn't do my grocery yet so there was nothing left but some spaghetti recipe that my sister managed to cook for lunch. I could have bought my father some leather wallets for his birthday, but the money I received that day was just enough for my bills and dues, and his birthday dinner with our family. I asked them where we should eat, and it was unanimous that we go to Lexis Grill since it was just near our school.. 

We had Ostrich Adobo...

 Some Bulalo...

 Sotanghon Guisado..

 Calamares..

 Sinugbang Ketong...

And my father's birthday cake.. 

Money was tight in both our households that day, but we somehow managed to make the head of the family happy..

A Simple Meal..

Shop at More Food Adventures

So I had been suffering from some pain in my feet for some time, which I have attributed to so many factors. My sister, to help me go through with the suffering, have cooked me some fish with no salt, each meal. 

Unsalted fresh fish tastes good, but frozen ones are not that good. So I am always thankful that we end our meals with simple yet yummy desserts like the one above, candied saba.

So everyday, we have fish, and mine is just unsalted.

Some Good Things Never Last---

Shop at More Food Adventures

I am always fond of coffee and chocolates. But lately, I try to avoid them as much as possible. Let's just say, they no longer leave me feeling happy afterwards.

Not that I would rather buy padron cigars than chocolates and coffee, but I think even the in-take of the yummiest treat need to be regulated too, or has to end at some point. As the song plays in my head, "Some Good Things Never Last", and sometimes too, we decided whether we should go on enjoying something or stop right then and there.. 

Perhaps sometimes it can be a good treat, but not when you have a set of teeth to take care of, or you want to sleep at night, or if you are conscious of your sugar level and health in general.

Last Week's Meeting at Honey Tree

Shop at More Food Adventures

Friday, last week, our bloggers organization had our meeting at Honey Tree Cafe. For the first time in a long time, we were complete. It was a successful dinner meeting, and I just noticed that over dinner, there were just two choices of food ordered. 

The Humba Rice and Terriyaki Chicken, which were both yummy. Of course, we mostly had the bottomless lemonade. 

Anyway, we usually hold meetings at Honey Tree because of the cozy atmosphere and yummy savory  food and desserts..

Press Conference with a Hunk and a Senator..

Shop at More Food Adventures

This is quite a late post. Last Sunday, I was invited to join a press conference with Senator Chiz Escudero. I was not able to post right away because I had to do some Disk defrag, plus, I had so much on my shoulder with the In-service Training for Teachers, which started on Monday.

Anyway, we had lunch before the press conference started and here are the food that were served to us. 

 The yummy Kinilaw..

 Pinaputok na Ketong..

From the image above, I am sure you will say this dish is Bistek Tagalog, but no. This is not beef but Ostrich meat cooked in the same manner as Bistek Tagalog, only, it tastes yummier.. 

 Of course, Tinolang Manok Bisaya..

 Pinakbet served in Squash shell..

And who could ever forget the yummiest of all dishes, at least to me, since it is my favorite, Grilled Stuffed Squid.. 

 And everyone's favorite, snapshots with Senator Chiz Escudero and Bryan Llamanzares..

Weee..
