Homecooking Time!

Once in a while, I do the cooking at home. Especially when my MIL is not home. I love to experiment on food that were enhanced with spices and sauce mixes. 

The food that I cook usually are more on the western side mixed with asian rather than my pure Chinese heritage. 

For tonight's dish, I prepared Crispy porkchop and Spicy bulgogi eggplant. 

For the pork, I marinated it with calamansi, pepper and salt for 1 hour. Then dipped in egg and coated it with flour that has a teaspoon of baking soda. (baking soda makes the skin crunchier)

For the eggplant, I chopped it lengthwise. Browned the chopped garlic then add the eggplant. When the eggplant was a little soft, put 1/4 cup Bulgogi sauce. I also added chili flakes for added spice. You can use the yellow cab chili flakes sachet. 

This is the sauce that I used for the eggplant. This sauce is being sold in Landmark supermarket at Php109 for 500g.

Iphone 5 casing

As soon as I got my Iphone 5, my hubby told me to buy a case for it. Me being stingy, borrowed first his Gola pouch for my iphone 5 as I search for the perfect case.

We went to trinoma last sunday night to eat dinner and buy some groceries at home. While my MIL was buying some groceries, I went to Mac center to check. I wanted a case that has free screen protector.. (haha! stingy nga eh!)

I found one in yellow and loved it instantly! Kaso sana naging Kate Spade or Marc by Marc Jacobs o kaya naman juicy couture na lang siya.. haha! If I found a much better casing I will change it. For now, this will do. Kasi mas mahal pag nagasgasan iphone ko! hahaha!

The perfect Cup

I had a favorite mug since I was single. This was given to me by a friend of mine. I brought this favorite mug with me when I got married. Unfortunately, one maid broke it. My MIL saw that I can not decide which one to buy bought me an orange mug from starbucks. I also love it but it lack something. 

Maarte lang talaga kasi ako, I think it lack character.. My character perhaps to the mug.

Early this January, I saw that Starbucks sells their new designs for cups, mugs and other items. I instantly fell in love to the pink cup! It's just so me! Ganda talaga! So I bought it, together with the black mug for my hubby! Kasi siya talaga yung kelangan ng bagong mug! haha! Crack na yung ilalim ng mug niya.. Kaso minsan lang talaga ako makakita ng gusto ko na cup.. So I also bought this one for me.. 

I just justified my purchase! LOL!

My hubby's mug is a limited edition Breakfast mug. I love it din kasi it has character. Simple pero may dating.. (wink!)
