Fail: My Project 365 iPhone Shots

For the record, I failed my project 365 :((.  There's been days that I missed to take photos and I don't want to cheat just fill the gaps.  I was so busy that I really forgot.  This project was harder than I thought.

Add water, fish sauce, chicken cube and bring to boil. Add boiled short pasta, evaporated milk and pepper. Simmer for few minutes. Serve while hot and enjoy! :)

Day 78/365: Bag Crap

19 Mar 2011 Photo of the Day

This is my everyday bag, I used it when going to market, grocery, or when we go out for just a quick stroll. But on that day, the strap went crazy! Snap! Upon coming home, I just fixed by stitching each end of the strap. And now it's good as new :)

Day 70/365: Caramel Sauce Ala Frost

11 Mar 2011 Photo of the Day

I was actually craving for chocolate cupcake with caramel sauce.  I remember when I was working in Manila, one of my office mate often ordered a homemade chocolate cupcake with caramel sauce for us.  The caramel sauce was so perfect and I loved it!  I was hoping I could make that too, so I tried one of the recipe from allrecipes.co.uk.  The recipe was a bit watery for me so I experimented of adding cornstarch on my last additions of cream.  I've made additions of cream and cornstarch till I reached my desired creaminess.  After it cooled down, I was surprised it turned out to be frosty.  In fairness, the caramel taste and sweetness was just perfect.  I enjoyed the caramel flavor top with my favorite chocolate cake :)

Day 69/365: My Homemade Lip Gloss

10 Mar 11 Photo of the Day

I was searching on where to purchase online or store of Carmex & EOS lip balm as both have good reviews and wanted to try.  I'm running out of my regular lip balm and wants to try a new brand.  So while on search mode, I just realized there's homemade lip balm and lip gloss going on for years.  What's surprising though, the tutorial videos are mostly done by teenagers, amazing haha! So yeah, being a mom I'm challenged cos what on earth I never heard of that before and if I could turn back time for sure I'll be making for myself and for my friends too.  Okay, so I'm happy I just got all the ingredients and things needed to make a simple lip gloss (because if not I won't buy those ingredients and things cos it will turn out more expensive and might as well buy a regular lip gloss), so the next day I just made a small portion enough for my cutey container and just for trial purposes.   And it works, perfect!  If I have free time, I will post my version here. 

Day 68/365: My good girl !

09Mar11 photo of the day

I'm really surprised to see when I was about to put home clothes of my daughter in her drawers when I saw that her clothes were so neat and tidy!  Usually it's a mess but on that day since now its still pretty neat.  I'm so happy she has improved on this! Happy Happy!! :)

Day 67/365: Traditional Way of Cooking Tikoy

The above photo is the traditional way of enjoying your tikoy ~ slice it thinly, dip in egg then fry.  I also cook like cheese stick style ~ slice tikoy like cheese stick and wrap it in spring roll wrapper then fry. 

Day 66/365: JSK

My first time to buy this kind of stuff.  I hate to admit but sometimes I feel as if I'm going back to my teenage years.  Like I bought the pens cos I so admire, as in I can say I am a fan of JSK !! Wohoo !! The pens are the only items I could buy.  Perhaps if this time I am a teenager / single or married with no kids?  I would definitely buy items like posters, calendars and other photos ha ha.  Kidding aside, can't imagine myself buying those expensive stuffs cos my hubby will really really get mad at me!

Day 65/365: Champorado

This is one of my favorite breakfast or snacks.  When I make champorado, I only used sticky rice and cocoa powder.  In deep cooking pot, boil 1 cup of sticky rice with at least 4 cups of water.  Stir from time to time until rice almost cooked then add at 1/4 cup to 1/2 cup of cocoa powder according to your preference.  You may add water too while cooking.  Please note that as champorado cools, the water lessens (like it dries up).  Feel free to adjust the servings of your sticky rice & cocoa depending on your needs.  Serve in bowl,  pour your favorite evaporated or condensed milk and add sugar.

Day 64/365: Ube Tikoy

I'm missing tikoy and its been years since I haven't eaten even a slice.  And its past CNY when I first made my homemade tikoy.  I just realized to search for the recipe few days after CNY this year but too lazy to prepare.  But you know, tikoy is a no brainer actually.  It is easy to make and ingredients are so basic.  Only three important ingredients needed - glutinous rice flour, warm water and sugar.  For tikoy recipe please refer to Panlasang Pinoy.

My version, I added a twist.  It's actually Ube Tikoy.  I followed his basic recipe.  Then I just changed the brown sugar to white sugar and added ube flavor / coloring to it.  That's it!! :)

Day 63/365: GNC Apple Cider Vinegar

I've known the benefits of ACV last year when I was searching the natural way of putting down cholesterol and sugar level since I was afraid that mine would be high and I don't want to end up in my annual blood test to have high result.  They say it also helps in weight loss as well.  I tried to drink a tablespoon with water before my meals for less than a month but I stopped.  I often forgot and sometimes I don't like the smell - it has a very strong smell and taste.

But recently I was surprised to learn that there's GNC Apple Cider Vinegar 120 Caps, found out thru twitter (a Phil-Newscaster)  that I'm following.  So there the next day or two, I asked my hubby to buy it for me and he bought 2 bottles (D63, D1 1/Jan/11 project 365).  We are both taking it but then again we forgot sometimes.  But when I continue taking it after meals for few days (not forgetting at all) I noticed that I'm not constipated.  My BM is after three to four days but when taking ACV regularly my BM is every other day. 

Day 62/365: Bling-aholic

For sure my blings are not that much compare to others who collects too :))  I dunno how to take photo of my blings since I'm not artistic in showing stuffs and I don't have nice bling hangers either.  As of my Day 62 (01Jan11 as my Day 1 in project 365), above photo were my blings stuffs.  To date, bought few blings again (no update photo) but then realized - its enough!  I should stop buying!! :)) No more buying of blings from now on, or else! :))
