 This is my special fried rice, with leftover hams and mixed vegetables.

It was our dinner last night and I received a lot of compliments from my kids. Good to know that they loved it! Hubby was on business trip so he was not able to taste my special fried rice. This is very simple to make, since I am a lazy person, I used a bag of frozen mixed vegetables, cooked it in a butter and when its soft already. I had some leftover ham, so I tossed it in with the rice, and wholah! You got a very tasty fried rice. Of course add some salt and pepper. What I did, is I add a little bit of Ginisa mix and a teaspoon of Soy Sauce. So so yummy! You dont need a viand for this. A fried fish would be so good on it. =)

Happy Food Trip Friday!

Lunch : Chicken Nuggets and MacNCheese

May 14th, 2012 emzkie

This is my toddlers lunch today…. Chicken Nuggets and Mac & Cheese.

Photobucket

This is my kids favorite food to eat. My toddler could finished this whole plate full of goodies right away. I don’t know whats up with this blue box of Mac & cheese, cause if I made it from scratch, they barely touched it, to think its more tastier and yummier. I guess they just want the Macaroni & Cheese from the blue box.

But I like this Mc&Cheese  from Cheese Club much better than Kraft. I bought it Aldi’s Groceries, it is cheaper and creamier than Kraft. It makes a lot of Mac & Cheese for 3.9o. Its very easy to make, all you need is butter and milk or water. I like milk much better cause its more tastier. Just boil the pasta with it then when its soften, mix in the cheese packet. Trust me its very yummy. Im sure you will love it too.

Mothers Day Surprise

May 12th, 2012 emzkie

Its mothers day tomorrow, so excited for the surprise that my little boy was telling me about. He said that he has a surprise for me, I wonder what is it? Im sure its something special that he made. I love everything that he gave me. He never missed a special occasion. He always have something for me. Isn’t he the sweetest? Yes he is. It reminds me, I don’t have any present yet for my Mom. I would like to give her something that will last forever. A jewelry would be perfect. I know she likes a puzzle ring, because its unique and very entertaining if you get bored. And it exercise your mind as well. I better check out the internet for it. I know its a little bit late, but its better to be late than never right?.

Sweet Plantain Chips from Grace

May 6th, 2012 emzkie

A couple of weeks ago, I went to Walmart to buy some groceries. Then I saw this chips at the Hispanic Foods section. The picture was telling me to try it specially the word plantain. I like plantains, in fact its my favorite. There were 2 different bags of this chips, the other one is color green. Im not sure whats the difference of the 2 bags though, I dont see anything that says about its flavor, both have the same content. It made me wonder if the red bag is Hot and the green bag is regular flavor. However, I grabbed the red bag. Im not very much into spicy, I dont know why I grabbed the red bag instead, maybe because its color red? lol.

Anyhow, when I got home, I tried it right away. And oh boy,  As soon as I tasted the first chip, I find myself munching the whole bag nonstop! I loved it! I find it so yummy and tasty. You can really taste the plantain and the sweetness is just right for my taste buds. I will definitely get some more on my next shopping.

Below is what the chips looks like.  Photobucket

Time is very important in Cooking

May 5th, 2012 emzkie

In cooking, time is very important, specially if you are baking, boiling, and grilling. If you are planning to cook a new recipe that you haven’t tried before, time should be set accordingly in order to derive the desired taste. So if Im cooking, I always look at the time on the stove and remember what time I put the food in the oven. I also have my watch with me, just to make sure that I got everything right. I dont want to make mistakes in cooking because I dont want my food to be wasted. You know how expensive to buy food these days, we cant afford to waste anything at all, right. So you better check out Luminox watches if you dont have a watch yet. They have pretty neat watches that will surely love to have because of its beautiful features.

Salted Duck Eggs from PhilAmFoods.com

May 4th, 2012 emzkie

I ordered some Filipino Foods online a couple of weeks ago. I was craving for something salty, so I decided to get some salted eggs. It was like centuries ago since I had one, and the website that I had been ordering lately have some. They have a lot of choices of salted eggs, some are duck eggs. I just want a regular salted eggs like in Phil which is mostly out of stock. Then I saw one that says salted eggs, beaming with delight-I added it in my cart right away and pay for my goodies. But when I received my goodies, I was surprised that it says Salted Duck Eggs. I cant remember seeing the Duck word online. I was wondering if I got my order right? or this is really the one that I picked? The picture was too dang small so I didnt noticed the word duck. I was a bit disappointed thinking that this would be nasty. Nevertheless, I decided to keep it and try it one of these days. So, I tried it yesterday morning. And to my surprised.. it tasted just like a regular salted eggs. But in my head its telling me that its DUCK eggs and my mind was saying…eww! I shut my mind and ate it. lol! You will see the photo below on what I did to this salted Duck Eggs. I only make one first to try, nobody here in the house eats salted eggs, so all these are mine.  lol.

I add vinegar, lots of tomatoes, onions and lemon juice.Photobucket

playing the guitar, hanging out with friends

May 4th, 2012 emzkie

I so missed those days when hanging out with friends, jamming their esp guitars, and singing a song with them, while munching our favorite food. It was very relaxing and free us from worrying about school work. It was cool just to hangout like that. I sure miss those days. Looking back make me want to call my friends and invite them to get together just like old times. I so wish that I have learned to play the guitar back then, so if I feel bored here in US, I have something to do, and divert my attention from stress. I know I can learn to play guitar easy this days, you can educate yourself thru the internet, but I just got no time to do so. I hope to learn one day so I can teach my kids how to play it.

Spending Time Outdoor

April 30th, 2012 emzkie

Since Spring has sprung, we spent most of our time outdoor. My family and I  just love the spring weather, cause its not so hot and not so cold. Almost every week, I took my kids to the playground in the park that is close by our house to enjoy the beautiful weather. I see a lot of people are enjoying the weather too, cause the Golf course by our house is full pack everyday. Every time we passed by, there’s a lot of people playing in the field and I’ve seen a lot of logo golf balls on the ground that’s been used by the golfers. My kids want to try to play golf, because to them it looks like a fun game. Well, I dont know about that. Maybe I will take them to Mini Golfs and just have some fun playing golf.

Sweet Yellow Corn

April 30th, 2012 emzkie

I went to the Flea Market today to buy some produced and I was surprised that they sell sweet corn already. It seems to early to have sweet corn, I was wondering where did they get these? Definitely not in our town.

 These corn that I got here were not displayed. The old guy who sells produced told me that theres a pile of corn in the box behind their stand.  He asked for $4 only per dozen, when I heard this I grabbed a dozen right away. The husk was already dry, but the corn still look so good. And when we got home, I cooked a few and was surprised by its Sweetness and Juicyness. These corn are super yummy! My kids loves it and want some more, but I told them that 1 is enough for 1 day. Tomorrow we will have corn again. :-)
