yum!

i do not know know to cook dishes. i can produce decent desserts though. but cooking and me do not make a good combination. i do not have enough skill to know what is missing in a certain dish. i guess i don't have the right tongue or taste buds. hehe.. but not when it comes to cakes, chocolates and sweets. in that aspect, i am a master.

anyway, i love to eat. the first photo is homemade cheese pimiento on garlic baguette. that's really yummy. i personally made the spread from queso de bola, mayonnaise, canned pimiento and a bit of condensed milk. i actually got the inspiration from a newspaper article about using leftover queso de bola and found the actual recipe online. i didn't really follow the exact measurements, i just winged it. but it worked. pairing it with store-bought garlic baguette was heaven. as a kid, i loved cheese pimiento sandwhiches. but my mom wouldn't make them because she didn't like cheese.

the second photo is my sunday night dinner. i didn't get to eat at the meeting because the students only bought me mango juice and a banana/blueberry muffin. i was actually shy to demand dinner since they didn't eat as well. so i ordered the oriental chicken salad from the cafe where the meeting was held. i took it home and ate it with the baby in the bedroom. the crackers were his snack because according to him "my tummy is so very hungry". the salad was delish. but i didn't use the vinaigrette they gave. instead i made my own with mayo and a bit of chili catsup. its my favorite salad dressing actually.

i don't often take pictures of the food that i eat. but i do know i have some in my files. i'll try to find them and post them here.
