Baked cheesecake last night which was for my sister’s despidida but because I made a major kapalpak with the oreo crust - I forgot to place a non stick cooking paper at the base of the pan. The result was, I did had a hard time in removing the cake from the base of the springform pan. Oh well, decided that we eat the cheesecake na lang and  bring something else for her.

As the saying goes- practise makes perfect, thats what I’m lacking….. practise.

Oreo Cheesecake

So I think  It’s the perfect time for me to bake  another cheesecake (to practise) for my friend who arrived from Dubai (may pasalubong akong bag, hahaha)

Again I used my favorite cheesecake recipe from dessercomefirst.

Oh it’s a weekend once again. Hope you have a relaxing one! See yah!

If you can sing this song, it means that we both grew up with Sesame Street. I remembered when this show was airing, I would stop whatever I am doing and will happily sing this song along with my siblings. So nostalgic.

Oh it’s Sesame Street’s 40th anniversary. Actually I didnt know that until I noticed that google keep showing sesame street characters. 

Now you want to sing along here’s the lyrics

Sunny Day
Sweepin’ the clouds away
On my way to where the air is sweet

Can you tell me how to get,
How to get to Sesame Street

Come and play
Everything’s A-OK
Friendly neighbors there
That’s where we meet

Can you tell me how to get
How to get to Sesame Street

It’s a magic carpet ride
Every door will open wide
To Happy people like you–
Happy people like
What a beautiful

Sunny Day
Sweepin’ the clouds away
On my way to where the air is sweet

Can you tell me how to get,
How to get to Sesame street…

How to get to Sesame Street

How to get to…

That was fun singing it right.

Okay…he is not Michael Jackson and I dont know who he is. I was inside the car when I saw the man’s image in the car’s side view mirror.  It’s a good thing, I always bring my camera. You see you’ll never know what opportunity may come along.  :)

Trick or treat????

Okay…..no I’m not trick-or-treating here that ghost look alike fellow up there is my……

TADA!!!!!

It’s my spoon rest. A piece of kitchenware that serves a place to lay spoon and other cooking utensil such as spatula to avoid messing your kitchen and will save your stovetop and counter from stains and spills. Oh di ba ganda, very useful.

So if you dont have this, have one. It will save your time in cleaning your kitchen.

Enjoy the long weekend everyone and Happy Halloween!

Finally….She’s here in Manila!!!!

who? Eh di si Sheng…..

I met Sheng an online blogger friend from Gensan. It was my first time to meet a blogger friend outside Manila. So I was really excited to ask her a lot of things about her city. While listening to her stories, It made me want to visit Gensan and roam the place. I wish I could visit there really soon. I would like to meet Bariles and Sir Gilbert. Two Gensan bloggers who are really nice and of course her husband Kyaw.

Anyway, Sheng and I meet at National Bookstore at Mall of Asia. We then went to Razon’s. She wanted to taste the goodness of razon’s halu halo.  She was really funny while eating the halu halo. She was like a kid saying

“ang sarap nito grabe”

while her eyes are drooling ah!
Sheng dear glad you like it!

Sheng with the halu halo!

Then after a while
princessdyanie joined us. It was my 2nd time to meet her.  So I already knew how maingay our conversation would be hahahaha!!!

 the three of us – ang saya!

We decided to have dinner at Chef de Angelo.

We had Baked Ziti P160 good for two. I liked this.

Paella Pasta P180 good for two.  This one is good too kaso I was so full with the baked Ziti na!

We also ordered a 9″pizza but I forgot to take a photo. hehehe!

So after finishing everything, I was really full then Sheng asked if we wanted to have halu halo again. Hahaha. She really got addicted with it. I told her I was really full na, next visit nya na lang ulit dito lolz.

Around 7:30 we parted ways.

It was really fun to be with Sheng and Dyanie. Till next time. Sheng have a safe trip back home ha!

She was so lovely and radiant that day.

and then there she was….

with her complete happiness….

To have and to hold.

Congratulation my sister and to your hubby, the whole family is so happy for you.

One Heart….One Love

One more sleep and it’s my sister’s Big Day….. cannot wait!

Have a happy Friday everyone and enjoy your weekend.
