After posting with my diet files and saw this photo of the Champorado I made last month, I think I might just indulge with sweets a little more! hahaha Seriously, it’s getting really cold and I want to sit down in the terrace for a bit and finish the book I am reading. And this Champorado would be a great thing to much on:)

Here’s how to make one!

Tablea boiled in 1/2 cup water (melted) but I used the Cocoa Van Hauten that I bought from Costco
1 cup rice
2 1/2 cups water
1/2 cup brown sugar

Procedure:
1. Cook rice.
2. Stir constantly.
3. When rice is a bit transparent , add the melted tablea or the Cocoa and sugar.
4. Cook until rice is tender. Adjust sugar to taste. If rice mixture is too dry, add a little more water. I prefer my champorado to be a bit soupy.
5. Serve in a bowl and place swirls of evaporated milk on top just like in the picture I took.

Enjoy;)

Since New Year just started, I am going to be starting my diet files myself. It has been over a year and still the flabs or the so called post preggy fats are still here. I asked the husband to accompany me at the gym just a few walks at the house and he would just tell me he’s busy! We paid a hefty yearly membership in that gym class and yet we aren’t using that one anymore! If you read my blog regularly you’ll know how I wanted to go back to my old weight right before I got preggy with my second child. But getting back has been the hardest thing to do! So, I was thinking that this diet pills will be helpful! I’ve read a few reviews a few times already at this site and it seems fine. Never heard any bad thing about it as well. I’m not still sure if I am getting one but I am curious! For now though, it helps a lot to just eat proper meals that aren’t too fatty and stay away from dining out. Plus of course exercising from home. My treadmill is always happy to see me working out :D  The husband and I have a resolution too, to dine out only weekends. We’ll see about that;)

We had a buffet lunch a few weeks ago at this nice restaurant at the hotel and the husband snap a shot of this crabs just at my back:)

Anyone? They’re huge! Japanese crabs are really huge as you can see..it’s only their legs! My little boy would joked and say ,they’re family of aliens! Ewww! haha

Have a great week ahead!

Breakfast
How did you ring in the New Year this year?
-It was quiet here. From where I live, it’s too much different from where I come from. But I enjoyed the New Year with my husband and the 2 little boys! Definitely what I needed!

Lunch
How did you spend the first day of the New Year 2009?
-Spent watching DVD’s;) We never went out or spend a dime. We just stayed in the house. I cook too which is a nice thing

Dinner
Do you set New Year Resolutions? If yes, what is one you set this year?
-We;) We have a house New Year Resolution that goes for me, the husband and my eldest too;) Although my eldest said he’s been good since and nothing needed to be changed! haha That’s coming from a 6 yrs old;)

Midnight Snack
What are your expectations for 2009?
-More good things in store for me and my family. Around the world.

Recipe for this Week (instead of your recipe for life - what is it for just this week?)
-Live Life to the fullest! You’ll never know what’s next;)

Enjoy the weekend and the very first Friday of the year!

For the longest time, I can’t remember when was the last time I love noodles in a pack! I meant like this! I have never like anything like this before. The picky me has this feeling it will just ruin my appetite. But I am so wrong! The husband bought one in the 7-eleven next door a few nights ago. He let me tried it but I refused a millionth times! haha So one night when my stomach was grumbling, he told me to just make a sip of the soup! And oh my effing gawd! haha Why did I not tried it earlier??? It’s yummy and I love it because it’s spicy and the small packs of spices smells good too! So now, we have a few packs ready for me to put a hot water anytime I want to! Any takers out there? hehe

Anyway, I need to check on this Gucci watches because they are having a great sale! might as well just bookmarked the site because I am not shopping yet!

To all the foodie lovers! hehe Wishing you all the beautiful things in this New Year!

More blessings to come and may peace, love, happiness and patience will be in our hearts!

Have fun!

I’ll leave you with this Krispy Kreme assorted donuts! Yum! Tell you what, I am going to have a heart attack with this one because of high sugar! I can only eat 1pc and I am done;)

Happy New Year! Will post more food photos soon;)
