Baking! Baking!

By -
Sometime in November last year, a friend added me to a Facebook Group that's into baking.  Since I bake from time to time (never fully levelled up though), I was so surprised to be part of that group because the members shared tips to everyone, especially to forever beginners like me.

Because of that renewed passion for baking, which I knew in my heart just is just in the pit of my stomach, dormant, waiting and needing to be awakened, I enrolled in a beginner's baking class.
Here's what was taught/demonstrated (where we helped a bit).

Strawberry Chiffon Cake
 Chocolate Cake 
Ms. Joy of Baker's Bestfriend, demonstrating
how to frost a cake
Caramel Chocolate Cake
Tiramisu
Mocha Chiffon Cake
Mazapan de Casuy (my favorite)
Mazapan, Mocha Cake
and Swiss Rolls ("Pianono," sa mga tulad kong sosyal)
Seven (7) cakes for a 6-hour class
My dream: to bake a birthday cake for my little one. Sana bukas magawa ko ito.

I almost enrolled myself in culinary school last year, yung pang beginners lang. Kaso daw, if I'm not that serious about it, I should think about it because the chefs are strict and OC.

Naisip ko, gusto ko lang naman matutunan, mga every day pang-pinoy ulam, so hanap ako ng mas appropriate. In short, naduwag ako. :P

Anyway goodluck and looking for to your birthday cake post :)

Heheh! Ako kasi, gusto ko lang matuto. Di ko naman pangarap maging top chef, basta masabi ko lang na alam na. Depende na kung gusto ko siyang i-level up in the future diba?

Sana you would have the courage to try next time. Tapos, patikim!

Thanks thanks!!!

HARASSMENT FROM SMARTBRO

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...
