There's Something about Mochi

-
Here's the deal - I am pregant...not.
But I've been having persistent and consecutive food cravings - each unique and different from the last one.

When I bought some frozen yogurt at Fruitti Froyo in Katipunan Avenue, I found mochi pearls and dumped a LOT on my cup.
I really enjoyed every slurp from that froyo mainly because I felt the texture of the mochi pearls really went well with the frozen treat.
Since then, I'd frequent that branch because it is only there that I found chewy mochi pearl toppings. 
(The ones from White Hat had a different taste.)

I think I am going crazy over mochi that during my recent trip to the Landmark grocery in Trinoma, I carefully scoured the shelves looking for Mochiko (glutinous rice flour) just so I can make my own mochi pearls or even mochi ice cream! 
But then I found none.
I was in the snacks isle when I found this box:

Ahh...mochi treat! I've decided to take the taro flavor...
Soft, chewy goodness! 

I think I might make some Guinataang Halo-halo with bilo-bilo or I'll beg M to drive me to the Mercato Centrale for a taste of Mochiko. Hayyy...cravings. =)

Xoxo,

In less than a month to go ( September 21, 2012 ), the Idols are coming over here in the Philippines for their tour. I am sure a lot of AI fans are already excited!

THE BATTLE OF THE CORNED TUNAS

This IS one very very late post. I completely forgot I have a file saved somewhere. Shucks. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- I have been meaning to make this post since the very first time I saw Derek Ramsey's Century Corned tuna TV commercial. I thought San Marino must be doing well in terms of market sales considering that they were first to introduce the 'corned tuna' concept in the Philippine market - and that Century had to keep up with it. San Marino Corned Tuna TVC Century Tuna TVC So finally last Sunday morning about two weeks ago, I opened two cans of corned tuna - one San Marino and one Century - and put them to a taste test. There's 7 of us having breakfast then. Without telling them which is which, I asked them which tastes better. (L) Century and (R) San Marino My nephew was first to say that he likes the taste of the less oily and sauteed-tasting one. (the one on the left, which is Century Tuna ) I totally...
