Creamy Stroganoff Rice Toppings

Hectic day of cleaning our home today, stayed late last night doing movie marathon and I still have to wake up early to tend to my family. Hmmm, crazy thinking and formulating what would entice my dear Jaha to eat and savor nutritious food and of course meat. She does not like eating meat with her small teeth. I am now accustomed to really cook the meat tenderly. With my gregarious personality, I am happy I could somehow deceive her (in a good way) of eating her meals! :-)

Squashy Macaroni and Cheese

My daughter is coming home soon from her last day of school and I haven’t thought yet what would she like to have for a late lunch or snack maybe.  My daughter is very picky with her food choices and it gave me a hard time deciding what dish to serve for her today. Well, as I rammed through my minds, I only knew that she loves to eat pasta preferably macaroni provided that is creamy. My problem adds up when I realized long before that she is not fond in eating vegetables and it is very vital that vegetables should be in her dietary requirements.

Simple Macaroni and Squash Soup

We visited my doctor and he advised us to intake foods that are soups and can be easily swallow. He advised to stay out from hard, crunchy, and chewy dishes that may harm my recovery. Well, as usual, I am not worried from myself but I am concerned again what will I cook so that my daughter will also take additional nourishment through proper eating.

As I opened my fridge, I can still see my leftover pieces of squash and elbow macaroni. Hmmm, some of the corner eatery serves macaroni soup but this time, I need to invent something that is good and high in vitamin A.

Concocting Watermelon Fruit Juice

Summertime and the family decided to go to Quiapo, Manila where all society status roamed around looking for good stuff for an affordable price. Yes, that is the glorious place where the rich and famous attends mass at the Catholic Church beside the Miranda and the poor and middle class mingled to buy or to sell along the sidewalks. Bystanders are scattered everywhere, finding rackets for money.

After circling around the market area window-shopping and bargain hunting, we happened to spot little stores near the bridge where they sell varieties of fruit. Jaha quickly exclaimed to buy watermelon and she chose the biggest fruit she could see.

How To Cook HamSiDog (Ham, Sinangag, and Hotdog)

It is seven in the morning busy surfing the net and my daughter sneaked behind me shouting "I'm awake, I'm awake". I was a little bit startled unknowing she woke up early today considering it is their summer vacation.

She immediately turned on her PS2 game "God of War" and quickly turned to me and requested that I will make breakfast. I checked the fridge and gladly, the hawaiian ham is still on stock and the cheesedog comes in handy. Jaha loves ham except if it is fried.

How to Cook Fried Rice with Chorizo

Last night, we overestimated rice servings so this morning we still have more than a handful of leftover white rice. Well, I cannot let it go to waste considering that I store it inside the fridge and some people are not lucky to have three meals a day. I made a quick sniff if the rice is spoiled and it was not.

One of my avid financial advisers is Francisco Colayco and his colleagues in the Colayco Foundation. One of the great basic principles and teachings that inculcated on my mind are the different ways to become rich. I know that many people aims to have a humongous stash of money so that they may able to buy the things their hearts desire.
