LOOK MA, I CAN COOK NOW!

oh how i miss my papa's cooking and my mama's cakes. i'm not actually good at cooking. i know a little like boiling and frying. even when we were still kids, i remember cooking instant noodles with egg for merienda and frying home-made fries in time for "Are you afraid of the Dark" series. that's basically it. and when we got a bit older i remember cooking my adobo over and over (well, actually until now.). papa taught me a little cooking when i was younger. oh yes i learned a bit. i used to do the cooking before i got a job. but by that time that i started working, my little cooking skill got really rusty. all i did then was eat, eat and eat.

But mama and papa flew million miles away. I was left with and empty old frying pan and a defective rice cooker. for days i didn't eat breakfast and dinner, not because i'm on a diet but because i don't want to cook, i don't have anything to cook and i just don't want to eat. simple as that. i got used to it actually. i go on a heavy lunch at work and a lot of meriendas so by the time i get home i'm all ready to face my laptop and go online until i get sleepy.

But things changed. I finally got the urge to cook and binge. Thanks to my new best friends: my non-stick cooking set, rice cooker, my black and red big bowl and my rock chick big glass.

here's my new best friend.... green just like my dear froggies...


here's a preview of my little cooking journey...


DAY 1 ....... ADOBO with HOTDOGs....
