Baltug in Capampangan are deep-fried puffed corn kernels sold as street food

Working (cramming!) on a paper, pressured to accept a project, finishing my best friend’s sister’s wedding missalette (already for Saturday!) and it’s drizzling. To sleep is a temptation but no, so what’s the best alternative?

Give in to the munchies: mental effort makes me hungrier than the most strenuous physical exertion.

Hopia ubebalitog or cornikpionono, santol juice. Of course, there’s always the paksing bangus (paksiw or vinegar stewed milk fish – Chanos chanos) with some sauteed bagoong alamang (shrimp fry paste) and steaming rice. But that can wait till breakfast.

This is obscene, almost like food porn. I originally posted this in the other blog but will post it here too. Shows some method in this madness. What method? I’ll have to figure that out. 

To continue the ice cream post below, I’ll post a new one after IMBB. I liked learning about the sorbetes of our respective pasts, and the ice creams of the present. I believe there is an overlapping area of all-time favourites, just like the buco (strips of very young coconut) with lime zest sherbet of our town.

Lynn, I’ll be working on the cookbook meme soonest! Thanks for passing it on to me.
