Korean Sausage

This is just one of the sausage here in Korea, I can’t call it hotdog so its a sausage. Dunno what is made of, as it a processed one. This is my husband favorite on his cheat day, cook it and  sandwich one or two pieces in a brown bread, add onion and mustard and ready to eat.,

Cup and Saucer

This is what I got when I went to Daiso the other week, together with my travel pouch. I bought this for my husband as he is using my coffee cup because I didn’t allow him to use the other cup  in our drawer as it is the souvenir from the gym in Seoul where he worked out.

Actually the cup the I am using for my coffee is also a souvenir because the gym owner gave him two cups, I am not going to use it but he said we have two, so when he wanted to use the second one I objected. So I bought him his own cup with saucer, just right for drinking tea.

He said thank you but he still ended up wanting my cup because he said it is bigger, so the end result the cup and saucer I bought for him still belongs to me.

Krispy Kreme from Seoul

I only know one doughnut shop in Philippines and that is Dunkin Donuts, that’s why when my husband told me about Krispy Kreme I thought it is a new doughnut shop but I was wrong.

Krispy Kreme was founded by Vernon Rudolph on 1937 in Winston-Salem, North Carolina, it is an international chain of doughnut stores. The parent company of Krispy Kreme is Krispy Kreme Doughnuts, Inc. (NYSE: KKD) and is based in Winston-Salem, North Carolina, United States.

My husband told me Krispy Kreme is a way better than Dunkin Donuts, yeah right but it is also a way expensive too. This is my favorite flavor Blueberry and honey glaze. Honey glaze is the signature item of Krispy Kreme and traditionally served warm.

Ground Pork with Barbecue Sauce

When I am hooked up in front of my computer laziness to cook strikes, so most of the time I will just notice a certain food in our fridge is going to expire soon, in that case I am going to stop and be busy cooking those food before there expiration or else I will received a non-stop scold from my husband for wasting money, his money. Lol!

Photobucket

Anyway my menu to post for today is just ground pork, fried with  barbecue sauce and onion, I have no more time to think a good recipe for the ground meat so I just dropped it in the skillet and voila! Ulam na!

Korean Croquette from Paris Baguette

This is my favorite treat on weekdays Croquette. Croquette is a small fried food roll containing usually as main ingredients mashed potatoes, and/or minced meat (veal, beef, chicken, or turkey), shellfish, fish, vegetables, and soaked white bread, egg, onion, spices and herbs, wine, milk, beer or any of the combination thereof, sometimes with a filling, often encased in breadcrumbs. It is  usually shaped into a cylinder or disk, and then deep-fried.

My favorite is mashed potato, chicken and beef.  The sliced croquette is chicken,  the one in the left is chicken curry and the one in the right is beef, I bought this in Paris Baguette when we I take-out Chinese food.

Croquette (Goroke) is  sold in most bread shops in Korea. The most common type of Goroke are deep fried rolls stuffed with Japcha ingredients or chicken curry. There are also Goroke filled with Kimchi, pork, and sometimes Bulgogi ingredients. Many Koreans stores often advertise the Goroke as a French product and is usually sold in most European style bread stores all over Korea.

Fruits and Vegetables

Photobucket We are now on our third week of juice fasting, after this one more week and then we  can eat soft food other than drinking fresh juice, yeah right we can’t still eat solid foods a week after we’re done.

Fruits and vegetables that’s what we have in our fridge unlike other week where we just shop for fruits yesterday we shopped both.,

We bought fruits like apple which is good for bowel movement, oranges, prunes, plumes, grapes, lemon and plums.

And as usual we bought carrots still in cheaper price, we had beets, cabbage, red and white as well as nappa cabbage, broccoli and three pieces of bell pepper.

The Kettle

Here’s the new kettle in our kitchen, we already had a electric kettle but we decided to buy this  one for our tea storage, so we don’t used this to boil water we just boil water in the electric one and pour the water here and drop the tea bag, doing it we save gas.

Photobucket

This kettle is cheap here for $14 and can fit 4 liters of water but we only used 2 liter for our tea time.

Craving for Cookies

I think most of us love cookies especially when there’s hot coffee or milk in the table. Me myself love cookies a lot but I seldom have one in the Philippines as it is expensive for me unlike here cookies are cheaper and they are overflowing because they are always on sale together with the chocolate cream cakes.

Photobucket

That’s my last treat of cookies I forgot anymore how much does it cost but they’re on sale for two box., I wish I know how to make cookies eh.,

For your information of the day  a cookie in the United States and Canada, is a small, flat, baked treat, usually containing fat, flour, eggs and sugar. In most English-speaking countries outside North America, the most common word for this is biscuit; in many regions both terms are used, while in others the two words have different meanings.

Its American name derives from the Dutch word koekje or (informal) koekie which means little cake, and arrived in American English through the Dutch in North America.

A Little Dark on Monday

I am quite busy these past few days tweaking some theme so hope you understand why I seldom visit and left a comment, anyway I stopped tweaking for a while because my computer is not working properly I think because I have a lot of images in my computer plus I have only 15G left on my hard drive even my hard drive won’t affect my memory it still disturbs me thinking that 16G USB has a bigger space than my computer. So I am cleaning my computer and updating all the necessary software.

Oh well today I went to  the postal office to mail the box for a friend in Philippines it’s been in our apartment for few weeks and I just mailed it. Actually it supposed to be mailed in Christmas like what I told her but I guess she is excited, haha. Like what is expected the postal fee is expensive than the amount of what is inside the box, haist life!

Dunno if we are going to the gym today we didn’t go last week because we prefer to walk around the neighborhood nope actually city because we reached up to the national road to Seoul. It is spitting outside, so the sky is kind of dark.

Knorr Sinigang Mix and Maggi Magic Sarap in Asian Store

Before shopping to Lotte Super last Friday we first visit Lotte World Mart, they are not connected to each other. The latter is an Asian store that own by a Thai man/family. Most of the products are around Asia specifically Thailand and Vietnam and few products from the Philippines. It is our second visit to the store since we discover it,  our main purposed is to look for buko juice and as well to buy some seasonings for cooking sinigang, frying and etc.,

So here’s what I bought 2 Knorr Sinigang sa Sampalok Mix (Original), 2 Knorr Sinigang  na may Gabi and Maggi Magic Sarap all-in-one seasoning granules, I don’t know how much this cost in Philippines right now but all of these cost W10,000 here or $9.  I guess I can already buy pork in  wet market if I am in Philippines isn’t it?

Photobucket

Unlike those old times if you want to cook sinigang sa sampalok all you need to do is climb a sampalok tree or use santol to make the soup sour but since we are developing country, most of the trees are now cut just to build a house in the certain land, but I guess this seasoning powder/granule is a little easier than climbing a sampalok(tamarind) tree. Lol!
