Just want to drop a word or two on what I think about Food, would also like to share my creations and some reviews.

Is this gnarly or what? I tried them and I think they’re really tasty, I don’t think they are as good as the real ones but I’d say, I’ll buy some again. I actually hope that they would sell them here in the
Here’s how you make them; you can use your favorite buttercream and put it in a food processor then use a mini scoop and place each scooped mixture in a baking pan and freeze for a few minutes. While freezing the cake balls, microwave 4 squares of Hershey’s extra dark mint chocolate, 1 cup semi-sweet morsels and 1 square of vanilla flavored almond bark for 1 minute and stir well. Once the cake drops are hard enough, dip each drop with a toothpick in the melted chocolate and let dry on a flat surface lined with waxed paper.

I got these ginormous strawberries from our local grocery store and thought I’d make strawberry shortcake but of course I was too tired to do it so I decided to just make chocolate covered strawberries. I do not have time to temper the chocolate so I just used some chocolate almond bark and drizzled some with vanilla almond bark and sprinkled it with almonds. Here’s how they look like..
shhhhh! They look fancy but very easy and affordable… want some???
When I was growing up, this yummy custard enrobed with caramel syrup was always served on almost all of the occasions that we go to. I got addicted to it; I love it so much that I could finish one whole “lyanera” (flan mold). I call it the 911 leche flan since it’s made with 9 egg yolks, 1 can of evaporated milk and 1 can of condensed milk and flavored with a tbsp of vanilla and key lime zest or lemon zest and of course since there’s 9 egg yolks there, you already know that if you eat this everyday you might really end up calling 911. Basically, you need to make the caramel ahead of time, 1 ½ cups of white granulated sugar and ½ cup of water in a saucepan over medium heat until sugar dissolves and is dark amber in color then pour it in the mold covering the bottom and sides of the mold. Pour the custard mixture* in the mold. Pop it in the oven in 350º for 40-50 minutes on steam bath* but of course the baking time all depends on the size your mold but when you check it, as long as it wiggles like Jello, it is done. After 20 minutes just put the leche flan in the refrigerator for atleast 3 hours.
* Custard mixture = (egg yolks, evaporated milk, condensed milk, vanilla and zest
mixed together)
* Steam bath = (flan molds in a baking pan with a little bit of water)

Non-vegetarians and vegetarians are very much welcome to this place. It’s my first time to eat at Mooyah Burgers and Fries today. My husband told me about this place since Mooyah sometimes cater their lunch at work and he said that they’re good, kinda taste like IN–N-OUT, and we love that place, so once I heard that, I felt the urge to try and see for myself. I am obviously not a vegetarian but I choose to eat vegetables whenever I can. When I saw the menu at Mooyah, I got really excited because they have black bean veggie patty! I of course ordered that with grilled onions, Mooyah special sauce (which I think is also similar to creamy Thousand Island dressing or In-N-Out’s Animal-Style Fries dressing) and Swiss cheese. Let’s not forget about the fries by the way, they are a-okay because since they are considered seasoned-fries, I think they need a little bit more salt but that’s just ‘cause I like my fries salty. As for their cheeseburger, I took a bite of it, their burgers are good too but I still think In-N-Out’s better. Now, let me tell you about their veggie burger, although they should be known for their all beef-never frozen patties, they should be proud of their veggie burger the more! I believe it’s the best veggie patty I’ve ever had in my life. It’s like Morning Star no meat burger patty on steroids! (No disrespect to Morning Star because, I still think they’re good). The corn kernels on the patty adds a little sweetness to it, it’s juicy (surprisingly more than their regular burgers), smells good and definitely Mooyahmmy!

I made some very common and simple cupcakes for Easter that I shared with my friends and co-workers. I must say though that… this is my version of semi-homemade, I was able to finish all these cupcakes in less than 2 hours. I used Duncan Hines Dark Chocolate Fudge cake mix, I normally like to bake my cake from scratch but this is a full proof mix, I really like it compared to others so I don’t mind using it when I’m in a rush but I know you might think that with all the mix-ins why not just do it from scratch, it’s just because I don’t want to sift cake flour and wash extra dishes, just cutting corners.. Also, I believe that it doesn’t matter if you use a cake mix as long as you make your icing from scratch. I always make Swiss meringue buttercream. (I got my recipe from Martha Stewart).
· M&M Easter Eggs (Speck-tacular)
· Purple, Pink, Blue Peeps Marshmallows
· Buttercream icing (thanks, Martha Stewart… I really love this icing!... to get the recipe please check her website and here’s what you type in the search field “Swiss Meringue Buttercream for Cupcakes”)
* I do not have the prices this time but I'm pretty sure they are all on sale now since it's already Easter.
HAPPY EASTER EVERYONE!!!
