Baked Chicken in Cream

Food Always In The Home. My mom would always prepare a simple to a good meal with her modest income she was earning from her small manufacturing business. She makes a simple dish to something would make us “WOW!” each time my mom puts the dish on our dining table. And it was something I almost took for granted. When I got married and had kids to prepare meals for, preparing and cooking a good food...

Meaty Spaghetti

I cooked MEATY SPAGHETTI this day to break the usual biscuit and cookies we eat for meriendas. Colby has a small complain though with the spaghetti for I forgot to buy cheese to top with it. But he loved it anyway. I prefer spaghetti sauce to have more beef than having the meat just floating on a pool of tomato sauce and I seasoned the sauce a bit sweet to make it friendlier for Colby. MEATY SPAGHETTI Spaghetti...

Sugar Cookies

I know I have already posted a number of cookie recipes here in my blog.

I have collected a good number of recipes from international...

Peanut Butter Cookies

I bought a bottle of home-made peanut butter from Ate Belen, our school canteen cook. Some of it was used for our vegetarian kare-kare, some as spread and some I used for the peanut butter cookies. This is one of the results from my out-of-curiosity’s sake and unhappily, it was a failure. If I would follow my cookie standard, they ought to be crispy outside yet chewy inside. They were neither crisp nor chewy....

Oatmeal Cookies

After our lunch date at Caloys Kambingan House (goat meat eatery) with my officemates last Saturday, Royce dropped me off to our unit, and then he went to attend the High Priest Group meeting at Arellano Chapel. So thankful I was as I thought, “Weekend, finally”. Only in weekends and holidays that I have time to do the some of the things I wanted to do, particularly, doze at siestas. I really wanted to nap but...
