Busy Weekend

By -
It was Midterm Exams last week in school so I had two full weekends in my hands.  Hubby and I declared that Saturday was Market Day and it follows that the kitchen will be busy with lots of cooking from us.
 
I started by "juicing" carrots, cucumber, apples and pineapples. I extracted the juice and separated the pulp. I made a separate extraction for the carrots and pineapples. The pulp from the carrots, I made into carrot cake, while I made pineapple jam from the pulp from pineapples. Yum Yum! The house was oozing with various fruity aroma the whole day!
 
Then I cooked Ginataang Tahong - steamed them first as I was going to bake the other half. Then I started baking my carrot cake.   As soon as it was done, I put the some Tahong in the oven to bake. Wow, parang may party at parang may bisita!!!

HARASSMENT FROM SMARTBRO

By -

In 2011, after finding utter disappointment from two (2) major internet providers in the Philippines, hubby went to a Smart Wireless Center and applied for a Canopy Device.  When the unit was delivered,     the installers suggested that we avail of the Wimax instead since the trees around the neighborhood were blocking the signal. So, they came back later and delivered the Wimax device.  The contract was locked for two years, otherwise, we had to pay pretermination charges. Photo credit: adamsplanet.blogspot.com On the day that Pacman lost to Marquez, on Dec. 9, 2012, we discovered that we had no internet signal.  This had happened many times before, sometimes lasting for a few hours, and the most was three days. We never a reversal of the charges since it was too much of a hassle to call their customer hotline at *888.  After two or three days of no internet signal (it was forever a running light), we reported the matter to the hotline.

My kid was bitten by a dog

By -
My kid was bitten by a neighbor's dog yesterday.  He was bitten on the left thigh and he had scratch marks on his right leg. He said that he and his playmate were outside the house, playing, when the dog suddenly bit him.   Hubby and I were so p*ssed when we saw the wounds on our little boy. He immediately looked for the owner of the dog.   After a few minutes, we were ready to go to the hospital. We looked for an Animal Bite Center nearby where the little boy was given anti-rabies and anti-tetanus shots (for a whooping price of P2,400 for the two shots).   I learned a few lessons from this incident:   1. Do not panic.  While I pacified the little boy, hubby was the one who "hunted" for the dog's owner. I brought the little boy to our room, dressed the wounds, changed his clothes, and told him to wait for me while I take a quick bath and get ready to go to the hospital.   2. The City Hall has an Animal Bite Center. They c...
