It is well and good if my "busy-ness" was business related! But no! All my activities were food related.
Last Sunday, Bo, Jing's brother, invited me for lunch at Texas Roadhouse at Uptown Mall with Jing and kids (Michael and James), Toots and Tricia.
I was so surprised I liked the food, especially the French fries and the steak sauce.
Appetizer platter
I ordered the Fried Fish Fillet with seasoned rice.
Michael ordered the chicken tender with fries.
James had the cheeseburger.
Jing's order was the Country Fried Steak.
Bo had the Grilled Chicken (I think?)
Jing and Bo shared the Baked Potato and Mashed Potatoes.
Toots and Tricia each had the Chicken BBQ.
Thank you so much for inviting me for lunch! Hahahaha I am your adopted sister from another planet.
On the same day, PD invited me for an Afternoon Tea at Bizu Greenbelt.
Pillow Mozzarella Cheese with Cherry Jam and alfalfa sprouts.
I tried the Salted Egg Macaron.
Monday was a day for the doctors. I had to consult with a Derma and an Ortho.
Derma because I was complaining of dark age/sun spots on my legs but Dr. Javier said they are not age spots. My capillaries have burst due to poor circulation and blood vessels could not contain the blood anymore and they burst.
Doctor said I have to exercise, preferably do something not weight bearing because of the pooling of blood on the lower leg. I am standing or walking most of the time. My doctor just solved one of my problems. I wanted to buy a stationary bike so I can exercise. Most of my friends said I will just use it to hang clothes or towel like what I did with my treadmill.
But now, I have to exercise, hence I need to buy a bike which I plan to do on Friday.
I went to the ortho because something popped in my neck area. Doctor felt it and he said it felt tight and hard. He gave me a muscle relaxant but one of the side effects is that I will feel sleepy.
While waiting for my appointments, I had lunch at 101 Hawkers, Beacon Tower.
I just ordered the Char Kway Teow
and siomai.
After my day in Makati Med for check up, I went home to bake cinnamon rolls. It is the favorite of Cristina.
While waiting for the cinnamon rolls to cool, Cat was with me. We had green mangoes with bagoong, Rootbeer float and chips with the Lipton Onion Dip I made with sour cream and cream cheese!
When the cinnamon rolls were ready, I took an Uber to Cristina's house in Makati to surprise her. I wanted her to eat it for breakfast on her birthday.
Tuesday
Dim sum Unlimited at Xin Tian Di, Crowne Plaza Hotel with my neighbors, FGM and Shey! Mona was with us also. We used her Citibank card to avail of the 50% off promo!
We ordered a lot! And ate it all!!!
First .... my favorites:
Seafood Dumplings in superior Stock
Braised chicken Feet
My ultimate favorite!!! It was so soft and tender and falling off the bones! Plus I really loved the sauce!
Fried Hakaw with sweet mayonnaise! Loved it!
We tried 1 piece of srping roll.
Now.... for the rest of our order...
Hakaw
Siomai
Abalone and mushroom dumpling
Radish Cake
Chicken Congee
Stir-fried flat noodles with Beef
Yang Chow Fried Rice
Salmon Taro Puff
Deep fried bean curd skin dumpling in Fish Soup
Coffee Pudding
Ampalaya Buchi
Nope, it doesn't have ampalaya but just shaped like one filled with chocolate.
Whew! We were so full! We just wanted to be rolled out of the hotel!!!
So sleepy when I got home because I had to take the muscle relaxant again and had to set the alarm because I needed to bake chocolate chip cookies for my nephew, Renzo.
I was so embarrassed already because he even gave me the Hershey chocolate chips we bought in Rustan's 2 Sundays ago.
I finished baking the cookies at 9 pm. He is asleep already. He will be happy when he sees the cookies tomorrow upon waking up.
So...... that was why I have been so busy lately and have no time to cook nor bake.
I still have to bake the canonigo and experiment with the salted egg potato chips. Hopefully, tomorrow I can make the chips when I have beautiful helpers who will come over.
