PB & J
stayed in tonight, made a little snack--PB&J--never fails. Raisin bread, Skippy and mango jam (ran out of strawberry). This totally hit the spot.

Chicken Fillet Sandwich
So it was leftovers for lunch. Still good--open faced chicken fillet sandwich with loads of mayo and cracked black pepper. I am just so mad at Mcdonald's McChicken sandwich, it's just the best tasting thing on their menu (shit standards) and now it turned into crappier crap, along with the Fillet-O-fish, in which they now only add a measly dollop of tartar sauce. Meh, wadaya expect?

Holy Cow
Hmm had lunch at Holy Cow, first time I laid eyes on this resto, looks like I'm just gonna waste my time and burn money on crappy food. My hunch proved to be right. Le sigh. Wish we could have eaten at reliable Pho Hoa.
Rolls on the house--meh.
Barbecue pulled beef sandwich. Kinda reminded me of asado siopao
Norwegian salmon with some sort of bbq sauce, honestly, not a fan of salmon. I prefer gravlax
grilled shrimp on pesto pasta etc. Me thinks they used regular cooking oil here, not olive oil. No garlic at all, disgusting
Australian Prime Rib with shallot rice and some regular lookin gravy, medium rare. I think they grilled this under a gas not wood/charcoal grill. Kinda weird.
to forget that meal--the most awesome local flavor yet--DRUMSTICK LOADED

Unicorn Meat in a Can
Oh my. Now I know where I can get my daily dose of glitter and sparkles. UNICORN MEAT.
Oh, and here's a recipe:
Savory Unicorn & Heirloom Tomato Bruchetta Recipe
* 14 ounce can of Unicorn Meat
* 6 or 7 ripe plum tomatoes (about 1 1/2 lbs)
* 2 cloves garlic, minced
* 1 Tbsp extra virgin olive oil
* 1 teaspoon balsamic vinegar
* 6-8 fresh basil leaves, chopped.
* Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
* 1 baguette French bread or similar Italian bread
* 1/4 cup olive oil
Chop the tomatoes and mix with garlic, olive oil, vinegar, salt, pepper and basil leaves. Toss well. Slice baguettes on the diagonal about 1/2" thick. Brush each slice with olive oil and add a full rounded tablespoon of Unicorn Meat, spreading over each piece. Toast in a 450 degree directly on over rock for 5-6 minutes. Do a little funky dance by yourself until it's toasted. Serve with tomato mixture and some flaming Absinthe.

KFC and Bacon
GREASE BOMB post!! SO sad yet true, KFC's Skinwich is nothing but a hoax.
One will just have to settle with KFC's Double Down Sandwich--this is soo Man Vs Food!
And for dessert, it ain't just a lollipop--it's not cola flavored either but of MAPLE BACON AND CAFFEINE. BEST SUCKER EVER.
AND after consuming this shit, slather on some BACON lip balm, or if you get hungry, just lick your lips.

• handful of kalamata olives
• 5 ripe tomatoes, sliced
• 1 small red onion, sliced
• 1 tsp dried oregano
• 3–4 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
• 3–4 tbsp red wine vinegar
Combine all the ingredients except the oregano, oil and vinegar in a salad bowl. Just before serving, sprinkle the salad with the oregano, season with freshly ground black pepper and dress with the olive oil and red wine vinegar.

I was feeling like total shit last Monday so I got these to cheer me up--Stila Lip Glaze in Sugarplum and pressed eyeshadow in Kitten. Kitten is probably their next best seller after their lip glaze, and it makes your eyes pop with a hint of pinkish nude shimmer, zexy!
Almon Marina
Went down south in Alabang to pick up this guitar. Don't know much about them gee-tars but I think this is worth P140,000 pesos. *gasp and double gasp*
AND a couple of sandwiches at Almon Marina, probably my favorite deli here.
Reuben sandwich on french bread--corned beef, saurkraut, pickles. Kinda dry, still yummy.
Pastrami on Rye and horseradish mayo. I always order this, so good!

beauty + food = weird zone, but hey, I'm so into these wonderful, yummy things and then I stumbled upon this--L'Occitane Cafe. Renowned for their rich moisturizing creams, and my personal fave--their solid perfumes, they now offer a girly, scrumptious menu. :)

Fancy Pants Mallows
This could be the fanciest marshmallows I've ever seen. I'm just so used to the American ones--great for s'mores and the local ones that costs 2 pesos a pack.They come in violet, lemon, orange blossom, and anise flavors.
