The husband bought couple of crabs yesterday. I didn’t know that. He does the marketing every weekend (usually on a Sunday) and I always told him to buy fish and some meat only. But I was surprised to see some crabs and shrimps… …Well, we indulged ourselves into this food from time to time and it was the two of us who will eat, LOL! (Migs don’t like it.. ) Anyway, he’s the man on the kitchen last night. He cooked that crabs. He just asked me to buy squash and coconut milk…

I’m so excited to share this chewy indulgent slice that I have baked last weekend- Almond Chews. The leftover flaked almonds that I have inspired me to bake this yummy goodness. It’s my first time and I can truly say it was successful and great afternoon snack. The husband loves it and I like it too. Good pair for a hot coffee or tea.

The first time I baked a carrot cake was last Dec 2007 but it didn’t turn out the way I expect them to be. As hubby and I noticed, something missing in the process or a certain ingredient has not been added. Though it got the taste of what’s the carrot cake should be, it didn’t have the moist texture that I like. So I promised I’m going to do it again.

During one of my library visits last week, I took a cookbook that catches my eye due to its photo cover, colorful and very yummy dish. After opening the first page, I learned it’s a McCormick recipe book and as expected there will be McCormick products on the ingredients. It’s fine with me anyway; I do have a lot of McCormick spices on the kitchen. So I browsed it. Since I wanted to do a vegetable dish, I checked immediately that category and there I got the recipe. Easy to cook and prepare…

Stir Fry Vegetables…. Here’s my dish:

Makes 10 servings.

Have you heard about this? Oh!, I’m so thrilled upon learning Taste Book. I can make my own cookbook. Upload my own recipes, or save the recipes I found on the net… decorate and I have my own hardcover cookbook… yey! I can even share it to my friends… so great!

I just started creating my own Taste Book, and slowly uploading my favorite recipes. I can put 100 recipes for 1 book so once I reached that or even half I can order it already…

Also, I just thought this is a nice gift for a newly wed, right? Hmmm…. really good.

The cookies that I usually baked.
The cookies that my little boy loves to eat and he called it Mommy’s cookies…

Last weekend, I baked this cookies as requested of course by the little kiddo. Once the first batch was cooked I have to keep it as my son will finish it at once, LOL! Good thing I made it otherwise I don’t have any photo to show here, hehe…

Who doesn’t want fried chicken, LOL! This is one of my sons’ favorite foods, next to Salmon fish. And today because of my busyness at home, (going back and forth doing multi-tasking job, hehe) I need to cook fast and that Miguel would love to eat… Ok, so it was 11am and when I checked our fridge I saw chicken drumsticks that we bought yesterday at supermarket. And *ding*, I’ll cook fried chicken, hehe…

Here’s the way I do it, a Filipino style fried chicken…
