Kitchen Is Busy

My kitchen is the busiest place in the house right now. I bought big tin foil pans today for the food tomorrow. Thanksgiving is not going to be at my house this year but I am cooking. Right now you can smell the aroma of the lechon kawali which I started at the slow cooker late this afternoon. I prefer the slow cooker than boiling the meat to make it tender. When it's done i let it drain then freeze then cook it tomorrow. Some of the food are to be picked up from the restaurant around 4 pm Thursday but I still have to cook the shrimps and fish. Busy, busy, busy....

Mr. Corn Man

Every Saturday from 8 am to 3 pm , there is a flea market at the parking lot of the Giants stadium when there is no game scheduled for that day. We like going to this flea market especially hubby because he gets cheap tennis outfits from a guy who has a store there. They found something in common which is tennis. Hubby has bought a lot of tennis bags and jogging suits from him but recently we have not been seeing around. Maybe he does not like the cold season. I am saying that because if you are at the flea market, you are outside selling with no heat at all. You just have to bundle up enough to keep you warm. People at the flea market are there all year round.

One thing that we also like at the flea market is food. It became a habit that we have to stop by our favorite Mr. Corn Man. Once we get to the parking lot, we always check where the yellow flag is located so that we know which way to go to Mr. Corn Man. He sells delicious broiled corn on the cob.

Meet Mr. Corn Man ready to peel his corn. After peeling the corn, he will ask you if you want butter on it.

Now Mr Corn Man is brushing my corn with butter. You can have nothing, salt, pepper or cheese on it.

I bought 3 corn for $5.00. It is $2.00 each but if you buy 3, he will give them to you for $5.00. Tada! I can’t wait to eat them! Still hot!

Surviving Mesothelioma

At the start of every school year, we always receive a letter from the school saying that the school building has been inspected and free of asbestos. It is an assurance to parents that they are sending their children in an asbestos free building. We are aware that exposure to asbestos is one cause of mesothelioma cancer where malignant cells are found in the membrane that covers most of a person’s body or organs. To better understand this disease, a book called Surviving Mesothelioma: A Patient’s Guide by Paul Kraus telling his personal experience surviving Mesothelioma cancer. You can also read testimonials from other patients, facts about the disease, how to get legal help and list of doctors who have treated patients with mesothelioma.

Party Games

It is almost 3:00 o’clock p.m. but I am only having my lunch right now. I was researching for some funny games for both young and old this coming Christmas party. This is my second year of doing this. Maybe they liked what I did last year so they requested me to do it again. It took me a while to finish the list because in between I answered sales calls for direct tv packages. Sometimes I get really tempted to switch to direct TV because of the deals they offer but I am not sure if directv dish is allowed in my building. I still have time to think about switching. My current contract expires at the end of the year.

So for my games, I added some new ones like the toothpick and lifesaver relay race, three legged race and the orange chin relay. The musical chair, stop dance and bring me are classic ones for the kids. Now this Christmas games are done, it is time to do my thanksgiving menu for Thursday.

Garlic Bread

We had spaghetti tonight for dinner but i forgot to stop by the store to buy some french bread. I was planning to make garlic bread out of white bread with some butter on it but when i opened my freezer I saw 1 box of texas toast left. Hmmm,...it's perfect for the spaghetti!!!! I just opened the box, toss the 4 slices in the toaster oven and after few minutes you have a bread to pair with your spaghetti. Try it.
