i pour the entire bowl of flour and i did not see the dough i was expecting to form. i whisked, whisked and whisked to try to see if it will change. nothing. i whisked some more, and still nothing. i turned on the garbage disposal and poured the batter into the sink. i tried again, heated up the water, added the sugar, sprinkled the salt and waited for the butter to melt and then poured the flour. once again, nothing. with almost 2 sticks of butter wasted, i had to sit down and think what i did wrong.
i love chocolate, but then again, who doesn’t? okay, there’s a small section in our society who are allergic to them or simply just doesn’t like to be happy – confession: i don’t talk or stare at those people.
obviously, i’m just kidding. i am not that much of a bitch.
so let’s talk about chocolate from my point of view… maybe i should change that to – let me talk about chocolate (that
rolls off the tongue
a lot better). chocolate is a very versatile ingredient and can be used in both savory and sweet dishes, but for many of us, we immediately associate chocolate with sweet concoctions we call dessert.
i looked over at the clock and saw that it was only about to be 6pm. i felt like it was already 10pm, partially because we had dinner an hour before my realization of time. i then hear my mom call my name from the kitchen and i yelled back to ask her what she wanted. she told me that she wanted me to make that green bean thing i did the other night ago. i went out to the kitchen and saw the kitchen counter covered with plastic bags from seafood city. then i looked over where she was standing and saw that she had a big bag of green beans in front of her and then i knew, she liked that little snack we had.
why hello there! i have missed you all so much.
winter break commenced a couple of weeks ago and i am still recuperating from the demanding semester i had. i have been catching up on sleep, but it seemed quite impossible due to the numerous events we have penciled into our calendars even before the semester ended. the day after christmas we were scheduled to have dinner at shawn’s badminton coach’s house together with some of the people we play with. that night i brought caramel bars, lasagna and bibingka and one of our closest friends took a slice of it when the night was over. the next day we were scheduled to go to her parents’ house so that i could help her mom fix their computer. when we got there, she told me that she loved my bibingka and asked for the recipe, i gave her my recipe and in return she gave me one of son’s favorite dessert recipe, pineapple and cream cheese baked inside crescent roll dough.
a few weeks ago, i got a surprise in the mail. you see, it’s normal that i get boxes by the door and normally, i know what’s inside it but that time, the return address was foodbuzz’s. i couldn’t remember if i ordered something, but instead of guessing, i grabbed a knife, cut the tape and opened it. this is what i saw…
