Posted on March 30, 2009 by greenbucks| 12 Comments

We went to a full house and very well-attended Krispy Kreme Chocolate Karnival for Krispy Kreme Chocolate Glazed Doughnuts last Saturday.

It was a very hot day and there was no more elbow room for everyone inside the KK store to take photos of the chocolate doughnuts as these made their way out of the conveyor belt.

We had fun nonetheless with mommy blogger friends like Cookie, iMom, Feng, Lynn, Jane, and Noemi.

We went home with a box or a dozen of these yummy sweet doughnuts.

My youngest daughter played and completed all the four games they have for the guests wanting to bring home free doughnuts. Wearing a blue blouse behind my daughter is Feng, waiting for her turn to play 🙂

Favorite Ice Cream

Posted on March 29, 2009 by greenbucks| 19 Comments

I love ice cream and I can probably have ice cream if I could and that means everyday, not just during summer, but even if the weather is a bit cold.

Why am I talking about ice cream? Because its summer!

To further whet your appetite, here is a yummy photo from Bubba Gump restaurant:

My answer:

UP-Ayala TechnoHub

Posted on March 9, 2009 by greenbucks| 12 Comments

Saturday night was spent at the UP-Ayala TechnoHub after we had our flu vaccine.

The place is sprawling, no doubt about it. The circular designs, the water fountains and the water formations at the back of the front buildings are very familiar since these are present in several Ayala properties like TriNoma and Market! Market!

The children enjoyed walking outside while savoring the warm night breeze and I know we are going to be back to that place sooner than we think.

KFC Kung Pao Chicken Pasta

Posted on February 20, 2009 by greenbucks| 4 Comments

Lunch today was KFC’s Famous Bowl Kung Pao Chicken Pasta. The dish is probably copied from a Chinese food called Kung Pao Chicken that came from the Szechuan Province in China, famous for its spicy food.

I am fond of spicy food and this one tickled my fancy. It tastes good enough though the sauce should have been “thicker” instead of being a bit watery. It could be better when served paired with garlic buttered toast or a slice of pizza.

Suman at Manggang Hinog

Posted on January 22, 2009 by greenbucks| 57 Comments

Kahel ang tema para sa Litratong Pinoy ngayong linggong ito. Siyempre naloka ako dahil gusto kong  maglagay ng larawan ng kahel na prutas para angkop di ba? (sabay kamot ulo) Pero di yata ayos yun. Tsaka sa mga nakakikilala sa akin, alam nila hindi ko “type” ang orange at fuschia pink na kulay kaya wala ako halos gamit na ganitong kulay.

Orange, the color, is the theme for this week’s Litratong Pinoy. Of course, I wanted to put a photo of an orange fruit so that is fits the theme right? I guess not. For those who know me well, they know I dislike the color orange and fuschia pink so I do not have things belonging to me with that color.

Ayan manggang hinog na kulay kahel (o kulay mangga, hehe), nakalagay sa toothpick kasama ng hiniwang suman. Almusal namin minsang malamig na umaga nung mahabang bakasyon nung panahon ng Kapaskuhan. May kasama itong inuming mainit na tsokolate mula sa nilutong tablea.
