Chocolate Crinkles

One evening, Husband was craving for something sweet and suddenly asked me to bake him cookies, specifically chocolate crinkles. I said sure and went to the net to search for the easiest recipe. For testing my first try on popular treats, I try to use some recipes found on this site. The description, tips and instructions are fairly simple to understand plus it uses weights as I don't rely on volumes. 

Almond Cookies for CNY 2014

This year has brought us to new and exciting times of our lives. Firstly, we moved out of the flat we have been renting since Toddler was a wee bit baby. It was cosy and secluded. Just right for our small new family back then.

Happy New Year!

Our feast for New Year dinner was simple yet elegant, so easy and fast to prepare that I was able to do it all in a span of an hour. This was because I prepared our menu in batches. You see, for our very first dinner for 2014, we had Paella (I used frozen sofrito which I prepared a month ago), fruit cake (which was also baked a month ago), and a cheese platter. 

Beatty’s Chocolate Cake by Ina Garten

We love chocolates. Chocolate cake, biscuits, snacks, candies, you name it. As long as it has chocolate on it, specially if its dark chocolates, we devour them to bits. We prefer it over fancy flavours, just simple and classic chocolate.

Merry Christmas!

Merry Christmas! 

Hope you all enjoy this holiday with family and friends!

Bibingkang Pasko / Christmas Rice Cake

I remember when we were young; my family would go Christmas shopping at Cubao COD mall. It was a nice place to visit during the holiday season because of their yearly Christmas play that uses animatronics. It showcases different themes and Christmas stories every year. They started to stage the Christmas shows in COD Avenida, Manila on December of 1957. But when they closed the Avenida branch, they transferred the show to COD Cubao, Quezon City.
