The Move, The Beach and Fresh Sea Food..

Yesterday we went as early as 4 in the morning to move things to my parents temporary abode in Opol, as well as to our new apartment here in Macasandig. I thought we'd all be staying at the apartment but my father said he is not comfortable there so the idea of moving in Opol before moving to their new home in Gran Europa. 

 After our first round of moving stuff, we decided, since my mom had been coughing and the two kids had been having runny nose, to go to the beach and take a dip. Eventually, since there were lots of peddlers selling fresh fish, we had breakfast at the beach too..

 

A lady peddler offered to have the fish broiled at a minimal fee, and another peddler sold boiled sweet potatoes. And that was a hearty, fresh breakfast for us. 

We also bought some fishes and crabs to take home for lunch. When we went to get stuff from the Balulang house, which was hit by TS Sendong flash flood, we saw the old couch and sofa. I wish we could find  discount upholstery fabric for the sofa, so we can have it changed. But my family decided not to take them anymore. 

The move continued on until we got tired of moving stuff to two different houses. My stuff at the apartment were mostly heavy as they are the books I have collected over the years. I guess if I didn't move out of my parent's place, they'd also be gone by now.

Simple Valentines Day at Home..

Shop at More Food Adventures

Instead of going on a date, our parents came home with sweets overload: 2 kinds of Selecta ice cream(Hersheys Kisses Ice cream and Pistachio and Cashew Nuts Ice Cream),  Goldilocks Brazo de Mercedes and Goldilocks Leche Flan and a box of Chocolate Crispies balls. We still do not have a dining table due to Sendong, so pardon the image you see below.

For dinner we had barbecue from BBQ Station, bihon which Sweetie cooked and grilled "panga"  (fish jaw) bought from Inilog Grill.

River was overjoyed as Goldilocks Leche Flan is his all time favorite--- he could actually finish it half in just one sitting..

The Chocolate Crispies Balls was actually bought from one of NCIP scholars selling them because my mother took pity on the child profit will go to the child's fare in going home.

And I was totally floored as Brazo de Mercedes is in fact my favorite.. But since I tasted that of Baker's Joy in Butuan City, or that rich Brazo from Tiny Kitchen or Lachi's in Davao City, which is quite similar to that from Vienna Kaffeehaus here in the city, I find that Goldilocks Brazo de Mercedes is not that yummy compared to them... But Brazo de Mercedes will always be Brazo de Mercedes to me, so I am happy this valentines day! Hehehe..
