Receiving compliments from kids are much sweeter, truer. (photo credits to : appreciationadvantage.com) |
I am now back to the grind after a delightfully gastronomic weekend, being part of the Davao Food Appreciation Tour 2013 ( DFAT).
Since it was a Monday (June 17) I was thinking of burning the calories & carbs that I took in during the DFAT and attend the Zumba sessions at Matina Town Square around 6pm right after I logged out from work. But plans are plans and they change sometimes. My 9-year old daughter Mikkie called up from school and told me she's bringing over a classmate named Macy because they're doing a research for their English subject. It was almost 5:30 in the afternoon so I gave in and cancelled my zumba schedule to prepare dinner instead and of course be at home to supervise the girls.
I quickly whipped up a sauteed dish of Baguio beans (green beans) with pork bits plus Sinigang (Filipino soup or stew having a sour and savory flavor which usually comes from tamarind extract or sampalok) . I prepared them the way my family loves them and sprinkled a dash of love, as they say. =)
