Starbucks Christmas 2013 Drinks

UPDATE:  I'm giving away a Starbucks 2014 Planner in Yellow!!

The red cups are back! :)

This year's theme is Create Wonder, Share Joy!  And Starbucks is doing just that!  And I'm excited to share with you the three holiday drinks this year!

Toffee Nut Latte
This seems to be most everyone's favorite.  And I'm so glad its back (well, it always is back!) because I look forward to this drink every Christmas!

Peppermint Mocha
This drink will definitely be always representative of Christmas because of candy canes!  What different this year?  Instead of peppermint sprinkles, this year Starbucks is using crushed candy canes as the topping!  Believe me, it makes ALL the difference.

Gingerbread Latte
This is the new addition to complete the trio of Holiday drinks.  I must admit - when I tasted the hot treat, it was LOVE at first sip!  I"m sorry, but I have a new favorite this year.  It tastes so wonderfully Christmas!  I know its odd, but the taste reminds me so much of Christmas!  It was only after a few minutes that it dawned on my that the drink tasted like - Cookie Butter!  Yes - this is the coffee version of the cookie butter!  So, I'm sure this will be a hit this year.

So there, a preview of this year's holiday drinks!  It will be available starting tomorrow!  So start collecting your stickers for the 2014 Starbucks Planner!

Remember to use your Starbucks Card in purchasing your drink because not only do you earn a sticker, you earn a STAR as well!

Officially, let me greet you - a very Merry Christmas!!

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 full functioning

#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 think I can w

#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 something up with just ing
