Sunday once again

a hectic Sunday it is!

Woke up at 6:30AM to be early for this year's round of blood test and ultrasound. We were done by 10Am (finally!)

When we got back to my grandmother's place, we got a call from my uncle who is due back to the States, inviting us over for lunch. Since we only see him once in a couple of years, and he came back just to see my Dad, we had to go to the send-off lunch.

Lunch consists of Lechon Cebu (suckling roasted pig)

Lechon originated from the spanish term leche
- Melts in your mouth succulent pork meat

Pancit Malabon

Pancit Malabon is a stir-fried noodle dish, which originated in Malabon City, Philippines. It has a yellow-orange color due to a sauce that includes patis (fish sauce) and crab fat. Toppings may include fresh shrimp, squid, oysters, and hard-boiled duck or hen eggs, as well as pork or chicharon ( dried then fried pork rinds)

This plant is being studied for nerve growth factor, cancer, menopause, and a sundry of disease conditions.

KRIS KRINGLE: Something Big

I never thought it would be hard to find something BIG for Php 100 pesos ($2) I short listed the following for my fashionable friend: ...a big box of tissue (useful) ...a big toblerone (but this is WAY over budget) ...a big trash bin ...a case of big oatmeal cookies (last resort) ...a big mirror ...a big bookmark (which i couldn't find anywhere) ...a BIG beer (unrelated) ...a big organizer it's quite difficult really. But I must search for something else. PRESSURE! On a side note, Jamie treated us to Pizza Hut's Lechon pizza. After eating, I felt like I would pass out at any moment due to high cholesterol but it was quite tasty if you're a fan of Lechon (roasted pig). The pizza did taste a bit like Mang Tomas' lechon sauce. A big slice of Pizza hut's lechon pizza

How stuff works: Piso Bid anyone?

First of all, I am in no way, related to the owners of Pisobid.com at present (it's a small world after all) and I'm writing this blog because I like to analyze and figure out how things work :) I was reading through my Ymail when I saw this ad for Pisobid.com. The name caught my attention and all that was running through my mind was the thrill of bidding - Ebay alert hihihi. When the website opened, I saw that there were a lot of gadgets up for grabs, among the lot was an iPhone 4 which I really wanted but didn't have the heart to spend Php 40,000 for a cellphone. Upon closer inspection, they are giving away ipads, LV bags and GCs. Hmmmmm.... let's give it a try! I never did like reading instructions and policy agreements so I just purchased a 35 bids for Php 500 so that I can start bidding. It's actually pretty easy to bid, all it takes is a click of a button, money is gone. HAHAHA In the pisobid, you actually use real money to buy bid, in this case, 1 bid ...
