#OishiOWow!: My First Oishi Snacktaular

Last year, I saw the giant Oishi snack packs.  I secretly envied those who went and got those packs.  This year, I was very lucky to get one.  Thank you forces of the universe and my angel Rowena!  I will be forever grateful to your friendship and generosity.  Thank you!!



So, last Sunday was afternoon filled with celebrations.  We had the engagement of my brother and future sister in law.  Then I had to rush to Trinoma's activity center for the #OishiSnacktacular.  When I got there, the place was packed, I mean literally packed.  It was a brilliant idea on the part of the security that they cordoned off the area so that fans won't be able to mob the crowd.  A thousand fans were shrieking, shouting, holding on to banners to show their support for their Team O idols.  I could feel it in the air their love and loyalty and sheer joy seeing their idols on stage and live!  It was a different feeling - I swear, I was so moved - I couldn't believe the surge of emotions.  Hahaha!!  I haven't felt that feeling in a long long time.  



 I've never been a fan of Daniel Padilla, maybe because I disliked his character in the teleserye Princess and I.  But Kathryn, I'm a fan - even since I saw her in short but meaningful stint in Magkaribal.  Yesterday was my first time to see Daniel Padilla in person.  And I must admit - GWAPO talaga siya plus he sings very well.  I was scrutinizing his face and I said to myself - this guy has good genes working for him, he's really that good looking.  I never thought in my wildest dreams that I would say he's gwapo, but he is.  As for Kathryn Bernardo - I found her pretty when she was still small and she has now blossomed into a very beautiful woman - very representative of a beautiful Filipina.



Another surprise for me was Alex Gonzaga.  She is pretty, slim and my gosh - when she performs - performance level talaga!  She sings very well too!





So back tot he snacktacular event - I did the Snack Catcher!  Woohoo!  Here's the video, but it's a bit blurred and bitin.  But it's enough - at least there's proof that I did it!  Hahaha..  Thank you to Kaye and Alexa for taking it!! :)




I caught 61 pieces!  Wooohoooo!!!

Congratulations to Oishi on their 40th year!  Thank you for making snacks for us through the years.  Here's to more years of snack making, more years of more products for the Filipino!!  #OishiOWow

ANSON SUPERMARKET - Grocery delivery!!

Sharing is caring, so we can't keep it a secret any longer.  THIS is where we get out groceries!  Well, Anson Supermarket has been where we have been purchasing all of our kids' diapers!  From Kailee to Connor to Shobe!  Yes, yes, yes! A week into the lockdown, it just occurred to us that we can get our groceries from them - but then we thought, we didn't want to force them to do it - after all it's a different time now.  But when we asked and they said yes, it was like we won the lottery.  We sent out our list - a very VERY SPECIFIC list and voila after a day or two (we weren't in a rush) they told us to schedule a pick up.  Please remember that I am sharing this with you guys because I believe so much in the saying 'sharing is caring'.  Please be mindful of your language and respect those who will call or message you about your orders.  Also note that some items might NOT be available - so manage your expectations.   They're a ...

#CookingQuest: Winter Melon Soup ala Didi #EnhancedCommunity

One of the things that gets ooohs and aaaahs in a chinese restaurant is the #WinterMelonSoup.   You may ask why?  Well because with this soup, restaurants use the winter melon itself as a huge bowl to serve the soup!  It's a sight to see as you'll be amazed how they were able to pull it off.  You'll see the whole winter melon, and then suddenly they're take out the top part and when you peek in, the soup is inside together with meat bits and other veggies!  My mom has tried it at home, and I remember her being nervous that the winter melon doesn't break apart, kunde sira ang presentation! So during this #EnhancedCommunityQuarantine, I chanced upon Theo's Farm that they have winter melon, so I ordered.  When I saw it - I knew I wouldn't be able to pull off the carving and serving the winter melon.  It actually made the preparation easier.  I had to ask my mom, and she told me to steam the winter melon to soften it.  Honestly, I don't t...

#CookingQuest: Chicken Stir Fry

When I was little, I used to see my mom, guama and aunt cook in the kitchen.  I found it amazing, that they have this idea in their heads on what to cook for us.  I remember my guama had small bits of plastic that when opened contained shirmp and cooked pork fat.  I asked her what it was for, and she told me that it was to add 'flavor' to the dish whatever it was.  I don't remember seeing her look at any cook book or a paper with recipe.  She just whipped them all up! When I got older, I became interested in baking - baking because I was afraid of splattering oil.  So I stuck to baking for a while.  It was only when I got married that I had to dive in and cook.  When my Panget and I were newly married, we didn't have a helper during the weekend, so I had to step up.  There were times that we didn't have a helper at all (we borrowed my mom's helper to clean), so I had to do all the cooking.  It was there that I learned to whip s...
