One of the challenges of any parent, especially one who has a child under the age of 12, is to help and guide their kids through one of their toughest ordeal=school exams.
What a way to start the year.
Pinay Chef Cristeta Comerford and Chef Bobby Flay won against Chefs Emeril Lagasse and Mario Batali in the Super Chef Battle of Iron Chef America!
Flay said to Cristeta, I told her don’t be afraid to use her Filipino background, which have a lot of flavors there.
Will this mean that Filipino Cuisine will finally get the same recognition as our Asian counterparts? If you googled for Asian recipes, most of the time you’d come up with Thai, Nyonya, Chinese, Korean or Japanese dishes. Only Filipino’s abroad would search for Filipino recipes on the web.
I dont know when the show would be aired here in the Philippines but here is a preview from youtube
This was the teaser trailer
Comerford and Flay

And the Judges decision…
A little bird tweeted a couple of hours ago that Donald Trump’s daughter, Ivanka Trump, shared a delicious recipe she made for dinner tonight. When I checked her tweet, it turns out the recipe, Cilantro and Garlic Stuffed Chicken Breast was shared by Foodista’s very own founder and VP Editorial Sheri Wetherell.
Let me introduce myself, since Alisa’s already sleeping, and I’ve been tasked with “managing” her blog:
I am Ronald, Alisa’s hubby, and I’ve been too lazy to manage my *own* blog. Since I and our kid have been playing Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 like warpigs, she requested that I write a review for her.

For everything there is a season,
And a time for every matter under heaven:
A time to be born, and a time to die;
A time to plant, and a time to pluck up what is planted;
A time to kill, and a time to heal;
A time to break down, and a time to build up;
A time to weep, and a time to laugh;
A time to mourn, and a time to dance;
A time to throw away stones, and a time to gather stones together;
A time to embrace, And a time to refrain from embracing;
A time to seek, and a time to lose;
A time to keep, and a time to throw away;
A time to tear, and a time to sew;
A time to keep silence, and a time to speak;
A time to love, and a time to hate,
A time for war, and a time for peace.
Ecclesiastes 3:1-8

Ten exciting days before Christmas, and tomorrow marks the first day of Simbang Gabi or Misa de Gallo here in the Philippines. Misa de Gallo roughly means rooster’s mass, not because it was meant for our feathered friends, but because this mass was celebrated very early in the morning, before the sun rose and the roosters crowed.
Nine days before Christmas, we wake up early to the sound of church bells ringing, and we walk/travel to church to attend mass. Filipinos believe that if you complete the nine days of Simbang Gabi, you can make a wish and it will be granted.
