Panels at Nerd HQ 2014 at the San Diego Comic Con

I was exposed to comic books at an early age. My uncles (my mom's younger brothers) drew very well thus I was used to seeing Superman, Spiderman, Batman, the X-Men and more. As I was growing up, my twin brother was into comics, he too is very good in drawing. When he was doing nothing, he would just doodle and the super heroes would come out! Well, he got the family talent, and I didn't.

When I met my Panget, I learned that he too was into comics and other geeky stuffs. So, we sort of had something to talk about. I remember asking him a question on Star Wars, anyways - we started going out and eventually we got married. His interest with Sci-Fi has rubbed off on me, thus for the last 3-4 years, I have been so fascinated on the Comic Con, more specifically - the San Diego Comic Con (SDCC).

It was just two years ago, that I started watching the panel videos on YouTube, and man are they super entertaining! I feel so excited whenever July comes because I look forward to the panel videos. This year, I learned of Nerd HQ. Nerd HQ was founded by actor Zachary Levi and he has one of the most exciting panels (in my opinion). I spent one whole last night during the holidays watching the Nerd HQ panels on YouTube.

It was sooooo much fun! I'm sorry but the geek in me is the one ~~talking~~ typing.

Here are the panels that I loved:

Orphan Black - I was so shocked that Sarah and Felix do not have real English accents! And Felix is very ver very good and convincing! WOW! I found the character Paul too cocky though, I didn't want to listen to his opinion. Hahaha!!

Supernatural - this is one of my Panget's favorite show. He was so happy that this show has been renewed over and over again. The bromance is indescribable! I love you Dean Winchester!! Hahaha...

Nathan Fillion & the Mystery Panel - Can I just say - because of my Panget I became a Nathan Fillion fan. My Panget loved loved loved Firefly, heck - we got Kailee's name from that show! Haha.. (trivia!!) I remember seeing him from the TV show Miss Match with Alicia Silverstone and Two guys a girl and a pizza place with Ryan Reynolds! So he was quite a familiar looking TV actor. I didn't know that he has a huge following - apparently, he's quite popular!

I wish someday, I can visit the San Diego Comic Con - but they say its super hard to get tickets. Sigh. Someday. Someday.

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
