Project 365: Third week of May

May 14 –


Today is Mother’s Day… and since we just came back from Tagaytay, cannot miss to document or take picture with my mom today (even if she does not like 😊 hehehe 😊)

May 15 –


Gavin now has Frisbee training every Monday and Wednesday. Since his practice is on a field, Gerard has nowhere to sit down so here I am doing online window shopping for portable chairs. 😊

May 16 –


A day before my mom’s birthday, finally we were able to convince Gavin to prepare a dance preparation… so here is a screenshot from his dance.

May 17 –


Today is my mom’s 75th birthday! Even if it is a weekday and I have meetings the whole day, made an effort to go to early mass and have breakfast with my mom, of course with my sister.

May 18 –


Today is Gavin’s first day with his “appliance” – something that he has to put inside his mouth to correct his “overbite” so documenting here – his first day 😊

May 19 –


Now it’s time to have a party for my mom’s 75th birthday! 😊 My mom is so happy to be surrounded with family and friends 😊

May 20 –


Giulia asked me to bring her to gymnastics today… so even if I had a meeting on a Saturday, of course, I cannot say no to my favorite daughter… it is just a matter of balancing work and family time 😊

That concludes my jampacked 3rd week of May…

Pan-fried Dory with Lemon Butter Sauce

Image
Here's another recipe of my lovey hubby Gerard. I’m so sorry but we don't have the exact measurements of the ingredients. What you need: Cream Dory fish or any white fish fillet Salt Pepper Magic Sarap Dried basil leaves Flour Lemon juice or calamansi juice Butter Olive Oil Fresh parsley for garnishing What to do:   Make sure your fish fillet is thawed (if using frozen) and the skin surface is dry. You can use a paper towel to dab the fish. Season fish with salt, pepper, magic sarap and dried basil. Note: we used freshly cracked sea salt* and pepper because we think that it gives more flavor. But I guess, normal salt and pepper will do. Magic sarap and dried basil will give an extra flavor and a hint of herb taste. Then brush the seasoned fish with flour. Make sure to put just enough flour. Brush off the excess. In a frying pan, melt the butter together with the olive oil in medium heat. Once brown, fry the fish fillet for 1-2 minutes each side or unt

Wee Nam Kee -- a taste of Singaporean Cuisine

My brother in-law would like his dad to have a taste of authentic Singaporean food… and of course the first thing that comes to our mind when we talk about Singaporean Food is no other than “Hainanese Chicken Rice”… Though Hainanese Chicken Rice originated from Hainan, China, it has now also found its home in Singapore as their national dish due to immigration. It is also known as Singaporean Chicken Rice it is served either steamed or roasted. Fortunately, we now have Wee Nam Kee restaurant here in the Philippines. They actually opened late last year and I have read several blogs about it. Wee Nam Kee has made its name originally in Singapore as a top contender for serving the best Hainanese chicken rice alongside Boon Tong Kee and Tian Tian. As I have read in one of the blogs, all their ingredients are sourced locally.  Their secret is that the chickens are freshly delivered everyday from 3 small farm suppliers that alternate delivery. They are chilled -- not frozen. Now

Peri Peri Charcoal Chicken

Last Sunday, my family decided to go to Megamall... and since we are from the South, this huge mall is really unfamiliar territory for us... Anyway, we decided to look for a restaurant which looks cheap but interesting... and fortunately, we came across Peri Peri Charcoal Chicken. “Home of the World Famous Portuguese Style grilled Chicken” "Piri-piri, peri-peri or peli-peli is the name used in Portuguese and a number of African languages to describe the African bird's-eye chilli, a member of the capsicum plant genus. This is a small and extremely spicy variety. The variations in spelling derive from the various pronunciations of the word in parts of Africa, although "piri-piri" is the correct spelling in Portuguese. " ( en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peri_peri ) So just looking at the definition, you can already assume that peri peri chicken would have an exotic taste. Hmmm… interesting right? Also as we get closer, we saw that the restaurant has a promo – Soup and B
