Ticket to Baguio

I really want to go to Baguio this holiday, Baguio is a very romantic place for me. Our first out of town ever as a family (back 2007). And yeah, as much as possible I want to go there even just once every year. This year we have no plans yet as we are saving every penny we have for our big dream.. but it seems things have changed.. read on to the conversation between Hubby and Kayil:

Kayil (in reference to the basket): Daddy pede ba kung matutuloy tayo sa Baguio, akin na lang to? ( he will use the basket in strawberry picking..)
(Daddy, can I have this basket if there is a chance that we will be going to Baguio?)

Daddy:???

Mommy: Yahoo! pupunta kame sa Baguio! (we are going to Baguio!)

The Disadvantage of Baby Wearing

I don’t get it or is it just the places I go through, but people seems to have a great interest on me when ever I wear my Chico. Is it because they are not used to it? Often times people would stare at me and when caught, takes their eyes off immediately, pretending they are not staring. Sometimes people are kind enough not to just stare. They ask questions (and stupid ones most of the times) if my baby is comfortable with it.. I mean, guys.. HELLO! If he is not, he cries a lot, which is not the case always! (he is asleep peacefully inside the sling) Hubby never likes it too (and that’s the only disadvantage hehe), and because of it, often times he would ask me not to wear Chico.. he never likes the attention… hehe but I always answer him EYELOVEIT! yes in a way the attention I got from nasty stares makes me feel like a celebrity, or just a plain roving tourist attraction.. whatever. So what do you think?

The Potato Test

While preparing today’s menu and while peeling potato marble, this just came to my playful mind…

The Potato Test. This is a test for aspiring chef.. get a kilo of marble potatoes (smaller the better). Peel it for a given time and then weigh it again, the weight of the peeled potatoes should not have a significant difference on the weight of the unpeeled.. kinda crazy no?
