If I’m run out of time preparing breakfast, cereals, milk and bread to the rescue! hehe…

Usually I cooked rice meal for our breakfast. Though my son have their snack in school, it will be served around 10:30 or 11am so I make sure he has his morning breakfast. Most of the time, I re-heat the leftover food we had the previous night. If there’s no leftover, I cooked but the quick ones only. But if there’s no more time let’s say I woke up late, then the above food will be my morning savior, hehe…

I don’t have energy to cook breakfast this morning plus the cold weather made me feel so lazy to do things. So what we have for breakfast? The little boy just drink his morning fresh milk; the husband has oatmeal and after the boys left I bought fish finger deluxe breakfast at McDonalds…

I don’t usually buy breakfast for myself alone but I told you I’m too lazy today, hahahaha!
Happy Tuesday everyone!

… We spent our Saturday night at Starbucks along Avenue of Stars. It’s cold that day and too windy so a hot coffee made us a little bit warm…

Not a sharp photo as I took it on my phone only…
More weekend shots here.

I called it “mini” because these are not large squids, lol… but nonetheless I managed to stuff these medium squids and turned out great. Unlike with our previous Relleno, which is a bit oily this one is not since I cooked it by steam…

I have the recipe below in case you’d like to do it as well:

Usually we have the fillet but last weekend, the husband bought 2 big tilapia and asked me to cook this particular recipe that I have done before. So I cooked it for our dinner and he said, the taste just right!

No, we didn’t go for another honeymoon, hahaha… but that’s the name of the restaurant we often go for our dessert. Yesterday, after we have our mass we went to Times Square to have our dessert.
And what we order always are these:
Thai Black Glutinous rice with Mango

This is my favorite. And serve either in hot or cold, your choice. I love the hot serving and it’s really so good!

Though one of my agendas last weekend was to bake, it’s not my plan of doing this Pecan Brownies.
I’m eyeing to bake a Blueberry slice since my blueberries will expire soon. But I’m lacking one of the ingredients, which I couldn’t find in the nearby supermarket. I’m sure it has on the other store but I need to commute to get to that store, which is quite far. Then the thought of baking brownies came up when I saw some Pecan nuts on the cabinet. It made me smile and then I said to the husband, I’m going to use this and bake brownies…
