for the love of... FOOD

like everybody, i LOVE food. and because of it, i learned to love cooking.

recently, i rekindled my flame for cooking. i know it's a phase again, but i'm liking what i'm doing right now.

it started of with my curiosity on cookies n' cream polvoron. so i did my "google-ing" and found a recipe which is i thought was easy enough. long and behold, i am in the grocery buying the ingredients. a few hours before work, i had my polvoron. i brought some to the office and as "scratch" as it is, they liked it.

but i know i could do better, hence, my choco coated cookies n' cream polvoron. since i already made the polvoron, i thought it will just be a breeze to coat them with chocolate. so off to the grocery again. and OMG! it ain't easy as it seems. but then again, everybody loved it so the mess was all worth it.

and then it was my goddaughter's 2nd birthday. so it's hello spaghetti for ninang. it has been quite awhile since i last cooked pasta, but since it is our little princess' birthday, how can i resist?

this week, while i was buying stuff in the grocery, i thought that i still had some chocolate left from last week's polvoron. with that simple thought, i rushed to the cereals area and grabbed a pack of corn flakes thinking i'll make me some choco flakes. when i got home, i immediately melted the leftover chocolate and threw in the corn flakes. then, VOILA! i have my choco flakes! no need for someone to go to baguio anymore!

my mom and sis goes, "o nagluluto ka ulit?! bumalik na hilig mo magluto a.. tataba ka nyan" and i said, "wag nyo ng batiin, bahala na si batman!" it made me conscious but WTH, i want to cook.
