Namnam Tilapia!

Because we are trying something new, Butch steamed this tilapia. I don’t know how he did it because I was upstairs preoccupied with work. But this is extremely delicious. I can see mayo on it with super fried garlic and brocolli.

Tonight’s Menu

In our kitchen, my husband created a sign for our cooking area. It reads “Tonight’s Menu”. It’s actually the back portion of an illustration board so it will be easier for us to erase every time we change the name of the food.

In the picture we had adobo, chicken curry, sinigang, tinola, estofado and others!
Butch is really a great cook. So I think I need to practice more! haha!

yummy Spaghetti!

Butch gave me spaghetti last year. He said in a conversation of ours that any guy can give you chocolates and stuffed toys, but not everyone can cook spaghetti like this! haha!

So it’s like he captured my heart with his spaghetti and he is doing it all over again and again.

Let’s go Mexican!

Nacho’s plus meaty sauce = perfect match. I don’t know how he did this. But it taste so good!  See, I am the lucky wife.

Just another invention

I usually make some creative desserts out of the left overs we have. Butch made strawberry float. There’s extra cream and strawberries so this is it!

I call this cookie banana float with strawberry toppings. haha! It’s the usual float but I just added cookies and banana.

Strawberry Float




My husband is so sweet and he made this.  It’s the usual float but this time we have strawberry filling.

Strawberry Cheesecake Madness

I made strawberry cheesecake today! Since we don’t have an oven yet, let’s try nonbaked.

Here are the ingredients we need.
1 can condensed milk  (300mL)
1 bar softened cream cheese (225 grams)
1 cup whipping cream
Butter (225 grams)
strawberries in can
200 grams crushed graham
2 lemons

1. DO CRUST. In a pan, melt the butter and add the crushed graham. Mix thoroughly.  Press into a 9- or 10-inch baking pan. Allow to cool and refrigerate.
2. DO FILLING:  In a bowl, mix 1can condensed, 1bar softened cream cheese, and 1 cup whipping cream. I used electric mixer so the mixture will be smooth and fluffy. Then I added the juice of 2 lemons. The addition of lemon will stiffen the mixture, which is important to a non-baked cheese cake. 1 lemon will do if you prefer just a little sour taste.
3. Pour the mixture over the prepared crust.  Refrigerate overnight,
4. Top with strawberries in the morning. Refrigerate for a while. and enjoy!
