I *heart* Turkey

We went to our farm in Pangasinan last weekend to pick up Nanay and Tatay. They are spending Christmas and New Year here in Metro Manila. We left 7 in the evening Saturday. I just brought my DVF overnight bag of course (I travel light you know). I enjoyed the joyride, a smooth and hassle-free four-hour drive via SCTEX.

My Kuya was really a very good driver. Hahahahaha. And very generous too. We had dinner at KFC (order anything you want courtesy of my Kuya of course, no wonder he keeps getting richer!) and a couple of hours later we had late dinner (again!) at our farm (fried tilapia, adobong turkey (my mom cooks the best adobo) and ginisang munggo). Super-duper yummy!!!!!

We brought home more turkey here in the city. While waiting for the roast turkey, I had tinolang turkey (for lunch) and tomorrow I'll cook kalderetang turkey and... I hope you get the picture. It's turkey week!

Can't Stop Thinking About

...my red pair of wedge. I took it out from my shoe room, tried it on and alas, it's b-r-o-k-e-n. I feel like crying. I haven't worn the pair for more than 3 times. What the hell happened? Must be the Manila heat. Need to get it fixed. faaaast

...my JNY eyeglasses. It's b-r-o-k-e-n. Minor. I need to visit my eye doctor anyway. It's time for a new pair of contacts.

...my PDA. It's not broken but I don't really have a use for it. Why don't I just give it to my mom. Hmmmm

...my friend's digicam. Geez the smile shutter. It's sooooooo for me. I want.

...4 pairs of boots. Too hot to wear them in Manila.

...getting a massage. My work is stressful. I have a complicated life. Ok, am just making up valid reasons to get one. I have a shiatsu massager at home. I can start with that. Yessssss.

...my elliptical machine. I should be using more of it. Maybe I can also borrow my brother's ab machine (cos he seem to get enough exercise playing golf and shooting) and he doesn't really have a need for it anyway (this is just my guess). Hahaha

...the leaking faucet. I will fix it soon.

...Pan de Manila pandesal (small, 3 pesos each). I bought 5 two days ago and I haven't finished it. Maybe Magnolia and Ching Ching can help.

...Gardenia California Raisin bread. I bought it because Magnolia loves it. Now she can have Alpo and Gardenia alternately.

...pasta sauces and spaghetti. It's been sitting still on my cupboard for a month. I can't wait to have a pasta festival again.

...my eight-volume The Delia Collection. I've tried the Marinated Pork with Coriander (vol. 6) and Mozzarella in Carrozza (vol. 5). I wish I can try more recipes and maybe get a higher place in the cooking contest.


...what to prepare for lunch or dinner. I cook for two (myself and Magnolia). Am trying on a new diet as well (I need to lose 10 pounds, more on this later).

I know, I know. There are more important things to think about. Like, my two new websites (should be up and running this week), the bills, the mortgage, etc etc.
