Pinoy Food

I went to the Filipino shop (aptly called Manila Sari Sari Store) in Chatswood last week to see if they have red chippy. I have been craving this ultimate comfort-food (for me that is) for some time now and it's always out of stock. Well, it must have been my lucky day coz not only did I get to buy my red chippy, I also got ----



Pinakurat!!! - who would have thought this vinegar would make its way here in Oz. Highway robbery nga lang ang price at $6.00 pero care ko, binili ko na dahil masarap etong sawasawan.

Manggang hilaw! yum! this was not from the Filo store but rather sa suking vegetable stall namin sa Chatswood. This is proudly Australian produce (ayaw nila mag export) and was labelled "cooking mango". Cooking daw? hehehe. Kinain ko na at naglalaway na ako.

And of course, the reason why I went to the store --- my red chippy (and vinegar on the side). Ang sarap... kaya di ko pa masyado na mi-miss ang Pinas kasi dami Filipino food dito.

At ang iba ko pang nabili sa store: Mama Sita Kare Kare mix (yep, nag kare kare kami last Saturday), Menudo mix, Knorr Toyomansi, Ding dong atbp...

I love food and I love to eat (kaya tumataba na din ako, haaay). :-)

Spring has Sprung (but Summer is already making its presence felt)

Flowers are everywhere (in Canberra, at least). Our eyes feasted on Tulips of different colors when we visited Floriade 2007. See more at http://www.gracymae.multiply.com/.

On another note, Summer is making its presence felt here in Sydney. Bush fires are everywhere, temperature of 32 degrees was recorded today, a very rare occurrence in spring (Climate change na ba eto???) and FLIES (as in langaw) are everywhere na din! Gosh, pano na lang kaya sa Perth? hehe.

May exam ako next next week, ayaw ko na mag aral, gusto ko nalang mag internet lagi. :-)
