the culprit

gained 2 pounds already since i started blog hopping from different blogs out there who posts tempting recipes. 

my kids misses my baking adventures so much. so I skipped my laundry last sunday and decided to bake something for them. 

i let them choose what kind of cake they want to eat.

and so here's my Chocolate Meringue Kek(cake)

i can see i needed a plain white cake stand to better see how tempting my cakes are.

laid back.

black coffee or hot chocolate. 

sip. 

eat.

indulge. 

royal red

not bad for a first bake of red velvet churva.

délicieux

this coming sunday will be the post birthday celebration of my youngest son. as i have promised before to my "elder friends" i'll cook something special for them. i only have 3 more days to culminate my mind on what to cook for dinner. my sexy chef mind has been depriving me lately. I've never mentioned to you before that I AM RACHAEL RAY'S doppelganger hahhah..anyhoo bahoo, these images from a French blog has been my inspiration lately. the only problem is, that blog was written in French. so it has translation, i know but how accurate it is when it comes to measuring? hahha..do you want to level up your hunger cookie monster?

sweet saturday

my kids are finicky eaters. if i want them to eat vegetables, i do their fave pasta and mix some vegetables in it. if i want them to eat fruits, i make fruit smoothie. summer here in the philippines brings a lot of mangoes. as summer passes by, price of this yellow fruit becomes cheaper and cheaper. we've been enjoying mango shakes for the past 4 weeks. good thing we saw this vendor near our place selling strawberries all the way from Baguio. a pack of 25php. more cheaper than buying it in a grocery store. i bought 4 packs and now frolicking this sweet & pretty Baguio fruit. numm numm

in and out, this fruit is gorgeous, so perfect!
