Balik Alindog Program

Hi Ladies,

how are you doing? I'm doing great except that we don't have internet connection at home, there's something wong with the router and the internet provider said they will come to fix it in 3 days wahhhh! 

I was busy last week cooking for some guests from thursday to saturday :) medyo naeenhance na ang cooking skills ko :)

Yesterday, I went out to do some errands and found myself in the vicinity of Elixia (a fitness center), few months back I was thinking hard if I will get a membership but the "kuripot me" told myself that it is best to save the money, that I can lose weight by following those videos in youtube, but it didn't work for me, because when I am at home, most of my time is spent with my ipad :( There were times din that I get bored at home and feeling unproductive, and I don't want to feel that way, so my husband strongly encouraged me to visit Elixia and get a membership.Luckily I went, because they are having a promotion now which they will waive the first 3 months fee,, oh happiness!!! I know medyo paulit ulit na ang pagpapayat ko, but now it is not really about for #balikalindogprogram but I want to spend some of my time outside our home nagets nyo ba ako,,, they have zumba classes oh how I love to dance bonus na lang if papayat ako at sesexy :)

Summer na... usong uso na ulit ang fishing, my husband got his first catch last sunday for this season yey,,, libre ulam na naman kami, kaya eto ang dinner namin tonight! baked cod,,, yum yum and healthy!!! 

how about you, how's the week so far? 

need to say goodbye muna :) 

Happy Wifey Moment #3

The happy wifey moment segment continues,,, hehehe,,, ang oa ko na kaya last na to hahaha,,, 

My entire day spent on  our bed, I am too lazy today siguro tumatanda na hehehe,, dami na nararamdaman. I told my husband na hindi masarap ang ulam, just boiled his chicken breast (his diet meal) and bahala na lang ako kung ano kainin ko (ayaw ko kasi nun). Eto naman ang gusto ko sa asawa ko happy wifey moment talaga he asked me to meet him sa sentrum although medyo late na sya nakaalis ng office, summer na kasi and I need a new shoes, naawa na ako sa pedro shoes ko ang tagal na ako na yung naggigive up sa kanya kaya if gusto nyo ng magandang quality na shoes I recommend Pedro talaga. I was eyeing for this shoes for quite sometime na and this is the perfect timing to buy it. 

I love the advocacy of TOMS, that when I opened this box of happiness, somewhere out there another child will also get the same happiness. :) It is really a great feeling knowing that i'll be able to help even in a simplest way that I can. 

It is very comfy and very light sa paa, medyo bumibigat na kasi ulit ako kaya I need something na light sa paa, at mahaba haba din kasi ang lakad dito. I saw some classic designs kaso wala akong makita na gusto kong kulay, kaya I chose this, I love the design girly girly pa din :)

After that, we went to Egon for our dinner, we where there once and we liked the food kaya we decided to have our dinner there.

very romantic and cozy :) 

after dinner we went home na HHWW hihihi! :) 

kayo how's your day? :)

Foodie: Adobong Puti

Hello friendships, 

If you are on a diet please stop and don't scroll down, if you decided to continue don't blame me ha, you've been warned :)

I super love adobo yan, my all time favorite kaso mo dahil nagkakaedad na ako e iniiwasan ko na talaga ang pork, minsan after ko kumain sasabihin ko sa sarili ko na di ako nasayahan hihihi,,, 

My husband also love my adobo, yung usual with soy sauce, but we have our housemate before who cooked adobong puti,,, ang sarap!!! But it will take a lot of courage for me to cook it because of the prito prito part, ayyyy galit na galit ang mantika, honestly I didn't get the same taste of what my housemate did pero masarap pa din sya, may sauce kasi yung sa housemate ko dati which maybe I need to add more vinegar. 

Ingredients:

2 kg pork (i used liempo and some parang pork chop)

vinegar

garlic (i used 2 heads)

salt and pepper

bay leaves

1 cup of water

Seasoned the pork with salt and pepper, add the rest of ingredients. Let it simmer for 1 hour (slow cooking is the secret to make the pork super tender), pagmalambot na ang pork, heat the pan and put olive oil and fry the pork (set aside the sauce), after it turned a little brown pour the sauce and let it simmer for about 15 mins. 

Serve and Enjoy! :) 

Happy Wifey Moment #2

Have you heard of 5 Love Languages? Ako alam na alam ko na Act of Service at receiving gifts yung sa akin, kasi gysto ko tala yung may effort ligaw pa lang pamantayan ko na yun, at i love receiving gifts or letters din kahit simple very appreciative ako. Kaya buti na lang masipag ang asawa ko, and he is well organized din without any expectation na maging ganun din ako hehehe no choice sya kasi ganun na nya ako nakilala nung college pa, ang bait din kasi talaga ng Inay, she never required me to do household chores, she lets me sleep during weekends until late morning, when my aunt will compare me to my cousins, my Inay will simply say "matututo din yan pagdating ng araw" true enough natuto din naman ako magluto, natuto din naman akong maglinis (not sure lang kung papasa sa iba hahaha) and natututo din akong itrain ang asawa ko kung ano lang ang kaya ko hehehe, nasa training lang yan, at totoo na opposite attracts hehehe,, God gave me to someone who can compensate my weaknesses,,, Thank You Lord! :) 

Thank You Lord sa masipag na asawa. 

Happy Place Ikea :)

Hi ladies, 

Side kwento muna, we celebrated our 7th anniversary last week, no gift giving and no grand celebration, I didn't picture it that way, in fact last year I promised not to celebrate our anniv here, but because we were in a tipid mode, and major thing was Mark wanted to buy a TV na (hindi na makahintay) I agreed even if it wasn't the same brand i was eyeing for, basta non-nego sa akin yung size kaya we both compromised naman, kaya super tipid mode kami, and I told him to skipped the gift giving for our anniv and to celebrate that day in the most simplest way :) heheheh,,, so there we stayed at home, he cooked our brunch and then we attended a bbq party at night. No one knew that it was our anniversary, some of my friends and family members just pm'ed me in facebook, I also skipped my traditional anniv message/post in FB and asked hubby the same thing. 

We visited Ikea today to buy a tv rack, I searched online that fits our budget, kaso nga lang we paid 515 nok for the taxi (boo!) konting difference lang kasi pag ipapadeliver. 

Everytime I went to Ikea, these are always on my list

Scented Candles! :) 

At dahil super tipid mode kami, got this plates for 5 nok lang or (approx 35 pesos) original price I think was 25 nok... lot of savings hooray! medyo kulang kasi plates namin pag may bisita. We have the same plates in beige color kaya oks na din kahit brown :)

Yesterday, we bought orchids, kasi may isa na ako na gift ng friend ko dito, sabi ko kay Mark kailangan nya ng kasama.

Yung smaller yung kahapon namin nabili, we named her Mathilda, the big one is Martha. 

Tapos today sa Ikea, we found varieties of orchids, and super mura pa, yung 3 with pots na e mas mura pa sa nabili namin kahapon. 

Namely: from L-R Magda, Mathilda, Marthena, Martha and Marsha :)

Ang gaganda nila noh? :)

And here is what my husband assembled today :) 

Life is not always easy but contentment is the key :) 

hugs and kisses ladies!!! :) 

Happy Wifey Moment #1

Since we celebrated our 7th year together last week, I want to document and also to show my appreciation on the simplest gestures of my husband to make me a happy wifey. This is also my way to strengthen our marriage and to keep the relationship happy. 

Yesterday, on his way home after throwing our garbage, he stood outside the window and caught my attention, when I turned to him he was holding a flower, so cute, I fell in love all over again with so much kiligness, that moment reminded me of our ligawan phase, did I tell you that when he was courting me, one time in the library, he handed me an envelop made of paper but inside was another envelop and another until I reached to the smallest envelop with a message of I LOVE YOU in it, too corny hahaha but he stole my heart that very moment (oh hon alam mo na hehehe :))

So lucky to have you! :)
