Friday, March 14th, 2008

I think this kitty cat likes his Lime Helmet very much!

Not only does it smell good, it keeps kitty cat safe from head injuries! You know how much they love jumping to and fro.

So what if kitty cat has nine lives, it is better to be safe than sorry! Meow!

My Hubby took this photo of this cute frog that was by the door of a neighbor’s front porch. So cute no? Dear Hubby says the frog is the family butler! Silly man!

Fish Fillet in Olive Oil and Lemon Juice

Tuesday, March 11th, 2008

Check out this quick and easy meal that I’ve “perfected” heehee! My Dear Hubby doesn’t really like eating fish, so to “force” him to eat fish I experimented with this recipe, which he thankfully enjoys!

Ingredients:

fish fillets

lemon (use zest and juice)

salt and pepper

bread crumbs

olive oil

cilantro

1. Rub fillet with lemon zest, salt and pepper. Coat with bread crumbs .

2. In a frying pan, pour olive oil and wait until it gets hot. Place fillets on the pan and fry until golden brown. Add lemon juice and let it simmer for a couple of minutes.

3. Top with chopped cilantro and serve.

It only takes me 15 minutes to prepare this dish and it’s always a hit! You can serve it with pasta or rice.

Vivienne Westwood for Melissa

Monday, March 10th, 2008

I found out from my friend Chico’s blog that these exclusively designed shoes by Vivienne Westwood for Melissa will sell for Php 7,500 in the Philippines!

Given that this is a creation of the fabulously eccentric British designer Vivienne Westwood, and Melissa shoes are known for being comfortable, would you buy plastic shoes for Php 7,500?

Mojito Mojo

Friday, March 7th, 2008

I really don’t drink alcohol, but if ever I do, this is my favorite! A mojito!!!

Mojito

It is a traditional Cuban cocktail traditionally made of five ingredients: rum, sugar or sugar cane juice, lime, carbonated water and mint. I just love the taste of sweet sugar, mixed with the refreshing flavors of citrus and mint, spiked with a kick of rum.

Yum yum! Hehehe!

Craving for Churros

Thursday, March 6th, 2008

I was going through my pictures and stumbled upon this photo of Xocolat churros!

Churros from Xocolat

This really was so good! The churros were crunchy outside but when dipped in the thick hot chocolate turned into a gooey and yummy mess! I loved every single bite of it!

Then again, I’ve always enjoyed eating churros. Even the ones from Dulcinea were pretty good! Hay, I miss the food back home!

Hello Kitty Easter Egg Decorating Kit

Wednesday, March 5th, 2008

Our local Target makes me so excited for Easter! They have everything from Easter Egg baskets to plastic eggs, chocolates, marshmallow chicks and bunnies and so many Easter Egg hunt themed goodies!

When I was little, we used to paint Easter Eggs ourselves. We’d drain the egg by poking a small hole on each end, and blow out the egg white and yolk. Of course, that makes the egg shell very very fragile, but it makes the egg a work of art indeed! But those who want to do it easy work with boiled eggs. That of course will make your Easter egg not just a work of art, but a beautiful edible one at that! Heehee!

Anyway, here’s what I stumbled upon at Target! A Hello Kitty Easter Egg Decorating Kit!

I wonder how our Easter Eggs will look like if we use this!

Gerard Darel 24 Hour Bag

Tuesday, March 4th, 2008

I am obsessed about this Gerard Darel bag:

Gerard Darel

Ugh! I just have to have it! I like it because I like anything French, heehee! But seriously, the reason why I am wanting this bag so bad is because it is the anti-thesis of an “It” bag. No labels, no logos, relatively unknown. Best of all, the leather is so soft and it costs less than $500!!! So perfect right?

I haven’t been to Paris since 1997, but I believe it when people say that almost all the girls in France have this bag! I’m not surprised, it really is chic and the design makes it a classic. Kind of like the Longchamp bags that were toted by every other lady I saw on the streets of Paris over a decade ago, this Gerard Darel bag made quite an instant impression on me!

I love love love it! There’s the python version too, and that has found its way to my wishlist as well! But, I’m in no rush to buy that. I will “settle” with basic black in the meantime =)

What better way to get all revved up for the hunt, but with this Hello Kitty Easter Egg basket!

Not only is it cute, it keeps the eggs safe and sound too! Heehee!
