LP036 – Lila January 29, 2009

Ang munting bulaklak na ito ay kinunan ko isang umaga habang ako ay naglalakad sa Corniche ng Dammam.  Hindi ko maalala ang tawag dito. Ngunit, ang munting hugis at kulay lila nito ay agad-agad na nagdala ng mga magagandang alaala ng aking kabataan.  Halos lahat ng mga bahay sa aking kinalakihan ay may ganitong bulaklak.

Swerte nga ba ang mga kulay kahel na isdang ito? Hmmm… siguro kung ika’y si Dyesebel?

LaPiS 023 – Hot Drinks January 19, 2009

Of all the tea variants available in the market, my favorite is the English Breakfast.  The rich, deep taste of this drink is enough to perk me up whenever I need a good dose of caffeine and/or whenever I need something to aid me in digesting a heavy lunch.  I usually have this with a teaspoon or two of sugar.

Care to join me for a cup of tea?

Sino ba ang hindi mahuhulog ang loob sa ganitong lugar… asul na kalangitan at karagatan sa iisang munting paraiso.

Ang litratong ito ay kinunan sa El Nido, Palawan noong 2007.

LaPiS 022 – Left Overs January 11, 2009

This is my version of the classic bread pudding – made out of stale/left over bread.  I really do not know how to cook or bake so you can just imagine how difficult it was for me to think of an entry for this week’s theme.  Fortunately, I was able to find this (stock) photo of my first attempt in baking. 

The recipe is simple: mash a few slices of bread, pour a few cups of milk, crack some eggs, add sugar, raisins and cinnamon and then bake in an oven (or turbo broiler in our case). My wife also accidentally discovered that adding a few spoons of peanut butter can make this simple dessert really something to die for.

A lot of people love to eat this warm but I prefer having mine chilled. Whatever which way you eat it, this dessert is tops in my list.

LP032 – Maalaala Mo Kaya November 6, 2008

Maalaala mo kaya ang tugtugin ng ABBA?  Aminin mo na… kinanta at sinayaw mo rin ang kanilang musika noong dekada sitenta at ochenta.  O kung hindi naman, baka ito ay iyong napakingan sa sineng Mamma Mia! na pinalabas lang kamakailan. 

Kasalukuyang pinapakingan naming buong maganak ang mga tugtuging ito sa aming sasakyan… opo, tama rin ang inyong napuna, cassette tape pa ang format nito… ewan ko nga pero dito sa aming lugar, mas maraming tinitindang cassette kaysa CD.  Mukhang nasa lumang panahon pa kami rito… hehehe!

LaPiS 021 – Spicy November 1, 2008

I was never a fan of spicy food.  So, when I saw that the theme for this week’s LaPiS was spicy, I immediately knew I was in big trouble.

Since I prefer sweet or salty dishes, I could not find anything spicy in our house.  The only thing I could think of were the black pepper corn, which I thought would be an interesting subject for a good macro shot.  I was wrong!  After taking several shots, I realized that no matter how you take a picture of a pepper corn, it will still be black, wrinkled ang ugly. Arggh! Anyway, I learned my lesson.  Next time pepper corn is better mixed with food (not with a camera).

LaPiS 020 – Halloween October 26, 2008

Next to rice, potatoes are one of my favorite sources of carbohydrates.  They not only taste great but they go well with so many dishes.  Whether fried, baked or boiled - potatoes are yummy whichever way you cook them.  My personal choice, of course, is to cut them in strips, fry and sprinkle with a dash of salt.  Ooooh, makes me want to m-e-o-w!

By the way, potatoes are not only good for eating but could also be unique decorations for the halloween.  Okay, okay… maybe they are much better for munching but they did help me have an entry for this week’s Lasang Pinoy, Sundays… that should count for something, right?
