Labot

ang labot baw…
tano igdi sa dagang hababaw
mayong ibang nahihiling kundi ang labaw
binabangut-bangutan, iniibahan pa nin sabaw.
laki
bayi
magpakalalaki
magpakababae
mayo kang padumanan
gabos nalalabutan.
sara-saraon
bara-basbasan
tama-tamaon
pagparapandayan
dae ka na magpagal
ta pareho man lang ang kaluluwasan
laki
bayi
magpakalalaki
magpakababae
dae ko aram, penoy man balot
pero maorag talaga kitang maghanap nin labot.

Fave Food

by kris10na ☮♥☺ Thoughts (0)

I know I had this mention in the post Happiness Is... but I wanted to add pictures for I am very much visual... :)

So here's my list of fave food once again...

Italian Food

lasagna

my #1, northern-style would be my choice. I actually have a recipe of it though I use penne to increase the quantity when serving for family get-together since it is cheaper but they still love it even if it turns out like a baked-macaroni.

any pasta will do

and pizza

Filipino Food

Adobo

Filipino's best and I do have an original recipe for it. (another post)

lechon

Full of cholesterol but still a fiesta won't be a fiesta without it :)

sisig

A drinking session food buddy, something we call "pulutan".

palabok

I love the crunchy ingredients but I don't like the shrimp better have more tinapa bits or smoked fish.

goto

Comfort food for the sick, it never fails. Biggs Diner actually has the best goto in our little town but that's not what's in the pic :)

dinuguan

Just see for yourself :)

kare-kare

This is something different, a mixture of different ingredients to play with your taste buds.

kinunot

A Bicol delicacy, I always love since kid.

Chinese Food

buchi

Something that I love from Chowking :)

tofu

Something healthy and cheap and delicious. Pan-fry it or a little oil and serve with soy sauce, calamansi with garlic, onions and a little chili.

siopao

I can actually cook this too. Well, most of the my fave food I took some time to learn how to cook them since I can't seem to get the particular food just anywhere I go. But Geewan has the best siopao in Naga City for me.

Mexican Food

Tacos

burritos

Both are messy to eat but still they are healthy, delicious and something easy to prepare.

Japanese Food

Ramen

I love noodle soup and this is my fave. Ramen House would be best
but since we don't have it here Korean ramen in a disposable cup
or simply Lucky Me will do and I use chopsticks for fun:)

Nanay Pining (my late grandma) and me on our first shabu-shabu meal
in Manila along with the whole family c/o Uncle Efren.

shabu-shabu

Veggie, veggie, veggie I don't love them but if it's like this I'll surely eat a lot.

Filipino Street Food

fishballs

barbecue

kwek kwek

Something very easy to cook.

isaw

betamax

taho

puto or rice cake

This is pretty easy to cook and I even know how to make the used oil can filled with water and set to boil which used as a cooker for it.

Mc Donald's pancake and french fries

burgers especially Stackers

any salad will do especially Caesar salad and fruit salad

Shawarma

This is my fave kind Sizzling Shawarma coming from a local eats named Haidnhor.

mushroom soup or any soup with garlic bread

Now, I'm missing Kart City and Nay's House in Tarlac. They have the best yet affordable soups I've ever tasted. For quick grab Campbell's will do.

cakes especially Blue-berry Cheesecake

I crave for Starbucks... yum!

ice creams (double dutch, Häagen-Dazs, Dairy Queen Blizzard)

chocolates (Ferrero Rocher, Hershey's Symphony or Kisses with almonds and Macadamia Nuts)

some junk foods (Marty's Cracklin Vegetarian Chicharon, Doritos, Pringles, Bread Pan)

Besides Alkaline Water... Starbucks Java Chip Frappuccino, Mango Shake, Pineapple Juice and Zagu (drinks but decided to include it here anyways)

Zagu: Chocolate or Creme Brulee with extra choco bits :)

big fluffy white marshmallows toasted in a bonfire :)

That's it... just seeing all of it in photos make me happy already :)

Just Another Day...

by kris10na ☮♥☺ Thoughts (2)

Started the day at 10am, it's still pretty early for me for I usually wake up around 2pm or 4pm but then I've tried to sleep early last night before 12 midnight... hehe Well, I don't usually sleep at night I am a nocturnal being had always been since college days and it's still true up to now.

It's my mom who had waken me up because she's been too excited about her visa application and wanted me to scan her documents and email it right on the dot. She even missed work just to make sure I'll do it for her today but she's using being dizzy still about her UTI as an excuse instead.

We had a stroll then downtown... bank, drugstore, fruit vendor...

My mom raised her eyebrows for these junks but I've protested that I haven't had one junk for months now and I promise that this will be eaten spread-out over the days of this month so cool... approved then but with lots of grunting and nasty comments from her :)

Ate at our fave local resto which offers the best local delicacies...

Balanced diet (is a must now, sigh)... all these with one cup of rice and lots, lots of water...

Sinigang na punaw (seafood), some veggies and sweet & sour pork

This was the first time that we ate at the 2nd floor so I wasn't able to discover this until my mom went to use the wash room at the 3rd floor. This little piece of art is hanged on the right wall of the stairs heading to the 3rd floor...

Made of bamboo and every piece looks like a sort of flute and painted with different designs from top to bottom.

I'll google this artist later...

My mom can't start a week without a parlor visit so while she had her mani and pedi... I got my haired shampooed just to have something to do and also it needs it too since it's getting a little oily and felt heavy :)
