Refreshing Strawberry Cake from Strawberries & Cream PH

Strawberries are my FAVORITE fruit in the whole wide world.  Every where I go, it's strawberries that I look for.  That's why I was so excited to see my friend Mira's venture into this tin cakes thingy!  I just had to contain my excitement and wait till I finished my *ge-lai* to order.

One Sunday I was pleasantly surprised that this bronze-y tin can arrived.


The aroma of the strawberries were heavenly, I wanted to dig in immediately - but first, I needed to take pictures.  They use FRESH strawberries for their cakes and that tells you something - quality!  I knew I had to take a bite.  I was honestly thinking if there was a technique of some sort on how to take the first bite - how to make that first scoop, but then - there was really no one way - so I simply let my spoon dig in.

And I scooped again.  And again.  And again.


 It's really light, just the right amount of sweet, the cream is a perfect balance to the soft chiffon and fresh strawberries.  I really liked the soft chiffon, I really did and it was perfect and dainty and so feminine.  I don't know - but I found it quite elegant.  I'm weird that way.

If you like something refreshing then this is for you.  Order now!

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 ...

Learning Mandarin, what method is best?

I studied in a sort of Chinese school for 13 years. So that "sort of' means, I SHOULD know how to speak basic Mandarin right? NOT QUITE!! I studied in a Chinese school where we only get less than an hour of Chinese class daily.  When you think about it, well - one hour a day, should be okay - but the problem is, at that time - it was pure memorization.  The books that we used, were those traditional books that I honestly have no idea what is written in them.  I see Chinese characters and they're just that - Chinese characters without meaning, nothing.  It was not practical if you ask me.  The words we were taught were not used in everyday conversation It was only during my 3rd or 4th year of high school that I realized how important knowing how to speak Chinese was.  It was during a trip to the Chinese border from Hong Kong that while I was going around the mall, I was having a hard time communicating with people who looked like me.  I wa...
