Eating Right Even On a Travel

Even before I arrived MVC, I was told dinner Thursday night will be at a friend's home.  Apple and Carthie cooked something nice (semi-vegetarian) as they have an idea that I was on diet watch.  I am not on diet, I was just trying to cut on my rice intake.



Confession:  I ate rice and meta from Saturday dinner until Sunday dinner.  Not one whole plate but at least more or less a cup serving except when we had dinner at Atiatihan where we enjoyed a chicken barbecue.  Never had that in a long time  so I gave myself an excuse.  I know I have gained back some pounds during the whole trip.

Anyway, here's a closer glimpse of the food we had that Thursday night:


Romanian Salad



Adobong Fish Paksiw



Fried Lumpia (vegetarian fillinga)



Yummy Durian ^^


Food is great with friends.  Thanks Ma'am Apple and Ma'am Carthy for the sumptuous meal.  Iliganon jud!  Sa uulitin ha.

It's been awhile since I posted entry for Yummy Sunday.  Since I am making this post now in this blog and not in my food blog, I thought of linking this post to Yummy Sunday.  I hope the YS host will consider.

Lake Apo: The Plan and the Visit

Image
The first time I saw Lake Apo in the Facebook account of the owner, Dr. Almer Alfonso, I said to myself, I am going there.  So I clicked Like on the photo and then later ask Dr. Almer how to get there.  Summer was over and first semester started and I still can't put into my schedule a trip to Bukidnon.  I desired to see the place alone.  But then thinking it would be more fun to have company, I tagged the photo to my fellow Iligan blogger, Pinay Travelista .  I am betting she got a mole on her foot thus her travel blog.   Indeed she agreed to make me realize my wish without a second thought.  We thought we could make it last August during the last weekend where Iligan enjoyed a long weekend.   But Dr. Almer was on vacation in the US.  September made us really busy for the planning of the coming MBS5 so the plan was put aside to an unknown schedule. Before September ended, I know I am going to make the plan a reality.  I shared the plan with fellow Iligan bloggers and invited ever

Spring Fling in Seoul - Arriving at Yeouido Park

Image
The moment we saw this stair with cherry blossom art, I knew this is it.  I was excited to see what's out there to see.  And this is my first glimpse of the cherry blossom in a perfect spring day! I think this is a welcome stage of the festival, but I was somewhat disappointed because I expected the place to be really filled with CB trees.  The trees I can see a bit further was not enough to satisfy my imagination.  I thought ito lang... Then we were told that we have to leave now because this is not the real place.  The place is farther ahead.  The guys with Jacel walked so fast. Not really fast but their strides were bigger than ours.  Since I walked alone, not together with the other 3 ladies, I walked next to the guys. I tried to keep them in sight because I cannot imagine what would happen if I get lost in the crowd. The crowd was quite big. So much people because it was the first day or opening day of the festival. We have to walked a kilo
