I'm back!!

Finally, after more than a year with no blog update.

Last year was crazy and busy with work at the same time. With less traveling and photo walks.

So now, I am definitely catchin up!!

Received something to munch on from my two cousins(one from Singapore and the other came from Dubai). This is the first time I tasted sweetened dates fruit and it's yummy! The coffee is pretty strong but its sugar free and it is perfect when I'm working at night. Ahh yes, chocolates is definitely a "must have"...

Blue Moon

The photo is not that good because I don't have a tripod and a telephoto lens.

I took this blue moon photo last night, a couple minutes before magnitude 7.7 earthquake happened near our area. The moon looks so beautiful, so calm and mysterious.

Wordless Wednesday - Flowers are Blooming!

After the rainy days, flowers are blooming again in our front yard! :)

Rodney On Rainy Days

This guy is feelin' blue. It's been raining for days and it means Dad can't go to the beach with him for an early morning jog, again.... and he's not allowed to go out alone.

Poor Rodney!


Hmmm, better take a nap, then... and dream about sunny days and good times!

Siomai Dumplings

I've been craving for dumplings. So, as I requested, me and Mom cooked steamed siomai dumplings yesterday.

Here are the Ingredients:

1 kg ground pork
3/4 cup chopped carrots
2 tbsp or 4 cloves minced garlic
2 medium/1 large minced onion(s)
spring onions
1 egg
1 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
1 teaspoon salt
seasonings
siomai wrapper

Instructions:

1. Combine all the ingredients for the filling in a bowl.

2. Wrap about 1 tsp of meat in each wrapper until nothing is left unfilled.

4. Boil water and brush steamer with oil and when the water gets to boil, arrange the siomai in the steamer and let stand for 15-20 minutes, longer for larger pieces.

For the Chilli Sauce:

Chillies (Siling Labuyo)
3 tablespoons cooking oil
2 cloves garlic, peeled and minced

***Sautee garlic and chopped chillies

Voila!!!!


I prefer fried siomai with soy sauce, calamansi and chilli sauce.

Google Drive

Since I started working online jobs, I've been using Dropbox for years. I even installed it in my blackberry. It is very useful, secured and still using it until now.Recently, Google launched the Google Drive. Like dropbox, Google Drive is a place where you can create, share, collaborate, and keep all of your stuff. You can upload and access all of your files, such as videos, photos, Google Docs, PDFs and etc.



I decided to try this one because I love google apps and it offers a capacity of 5 gb for free while dropbox offers 2gb. It also allows the user to attach photos from Drive to posts in Google+, and also let's you attach stuff from Drive directly to emails in Gmail.

Google Drive is available for:

• PC and Mac
• Chrome OS
• iPhone and iPad
• Android devices
