An apple a day keeps the doc away

I don't get how closely the history of an apple tree becomes connected to us human. They say an apple a day keeps the doctor away... I say without apple, there would be no apple pie, apple cider, apple jam, apple juice, apple cheesecakes or even apple butter...

Apples are everywhere! The Sunday Market seems to be full of apples, tons of gorgeous apples seen in almost all the stalls, why, oh why? I realized that it must be some sort of a sign.. So I stocked up on apples, bought like a dozen, and off I go to my pearl-white kitchen!

I guess i'll just be making fresh apple sauce for tomorrow, it's the easiest thing to do, just cut into slices, put it in a saucepan, add a little water, start heat on high, bring to boil and stir! Apples are my favorite because you can easily mix it with anything, it quickly adds crunch, flavor, and aroma to any type of food, be it main course, appetizer, or dessert! My kids are huge fans of apples too.

Another thing with apples is that you can get a good dose of vitamin C, potassium, and folic acid into your body. Keeps you energized and rejuvinated! And the best part is, it's a low-calorie food! Healthy, fuss-free, just peel the skin and you're good to go. Monday morning will be a great morning for I will be getting loaves of delicious whole wheat bread made moist with applesauce! My kids for sure will love it! I'm excited!

Pizza tastes yummier when it's free

I spent the whole night last night figuring out that secret recipe to that great tasting sauce at Uncle Moe's. I tried to combine plain cold yogurt, minced garlic, lemon juice, and salt to taste in attempt to copy the sauce but of course, I got disappointed. I even tried to experiment by putting some tomatoes in it but it tasted weird. So I've decided, what the heck, I'll just call 777-77-77 and order my all-time favorite Shakey's potato mojos and bacon mushroom pizza! Two of my friends were actually with me at the time so we got two 12-inch pizza using a palm card plus party sized mojos. A palm card entitles you to a free pizza for every pizza that you buy either take-out or delivery, same size! So we called them at around 12:10pm and they said that our order will arrive after 45 minutes. The weather was pretty bad because of the heavy rain.

12:55pm >> still no sign of the delivery pizza guy.

Then all of a sudden, my friend started to sing, "Shakey's 777-77-77, if it's late it's free, Shakey's deliveeerrryy......" She started to joke around that if the delivery guy still hasn't arrived by 1:00pm, we might actually get the pizza for free. I thought to myself, probably not unless it's extremely late..

At 1:10pm, *doorbell rings* "Shakey's delivery!!"

AND GUESS WHAT, we actually got everything for free! Our bill was supposedly P600 and we ended up paying only P50, which is just A tip we gave for the delivery guy. The delivery guy was so nice!

Next time, try to order at Shakey's when the weather's bad, I tell you, eating gets better especially when it's free. ;D

Happy times!

A bang for the buck restaurant

So a while back I was looking for a good place to eat my favorite shawarma-rice combination. I was totally craving for it. So as I passed by Julia Vargas in Pasig, I saw this interestingly small restaurant named Uncle Moe's. And wow, can I just say I loved the food! It's definitely worth what I paid for. It's cheap, great comfort food. They have the yummiest chicken shawarmas, definitely the juciest I have ever tasted! I also tried their beef kebab and the sauce is just awesome! I would have to figure out the secret recipe to that. Definitely be coming back soon! I'm super in love with the sauce.

Now excuse me and let me get back to my late night cooking adventure!
