Sunday Breakfast + Good Conversation

I'm not a breakfast eater.. I'm an early riser and a morning person but never really ate "real food" for breakfast.. usually i just eat 2x a day, and some light snacks in between. Until just last weekend I was in Hong Kong for a working visit with business partner SN, I ate breakfast each morning for 3 days.. SN eats 3 square meals a day plus snacks in between!

I enjoyed it actually, its an excuse to eat more because the rest of the day we were busy walking around the convention center.

I particularly like the Hong Kong Style coffee shop. They served the yummiest coffee, it must be the milk!

I'm posting this because it was so much fun to have Sunday breakfast with good conversation.. :)

This is what I ate last Sunday. 

Hong Kong version of Cafe Latte

Peanut Butter Toast & Ham Omelette

Great is God's Love

Last Sunday during worship, Pastor Sarthou shared the testimony about "Brian Welch", co-founder of the band named "Korn". If you're a fan of heavy metal music, you must be aware that they are very famous! I'm not a fan, but i was intrigued. I really love to hear testimonies from famous people who have lots of money, fame and power.. but inside they are living in misery. I go-ogled it today and found this powerful video.. watch.. It really put tears in my eyes.



How great is His love? it passes all knowledge, No man’s comprehension, its measure can be; It filleth the world, yet each heart may contain it. - Annie Johnson Flint

Travelog: Dining at Batik Asian Cuisine, Maryland!

I'm back. I'm well na. Thanks for those who prayed for me. I had an awesome weekend with my kids in Subic. I'll do a separate post for that.

Continuing my US travelog, I'm so proud of cousin-in-laws Henry & Emily Sy who owns/operate this restaurant called "Batik Asian Cuisine and Dumpling Bar". We stayed at their house with a huge backyard while we were in Maryland for 5 days. This is towards the end of our trip so we are just chilling and relaxed, took subways to go to DC.. etc.

This couple is super hardworking. Emily is in charge of all the recipes!! This girl is a superwoman.She formulated South East Asian Cuisine for this restaurant. She created the menu, location/interiors of the place/marketing/pricing and during business hours she transforms into a waitress! I love the Laksa and Beef Kway Teow!





that's Henry! hahaha


according to Emily, most of her decors came from Boracay, and provinces in Philippines

We also met the chef.. forgot her name. Look at her strong hands!


and the FOOD!



If you're in the area of Gaithersburg, Maryland. You must go go go!

Eclectic Eve is Sick

I've been sick since Sunday, as I post this today. Sigh.



Saturday 8/13 I even went biking with DH and MG

Sunday 8/14 I ran the Chinabank Run 90th Anniversary at Mckinley Hills and did 9km at a very hilly course. The same day we had a small party in Makati. 2pm I started to feel pain in the head/bones.

When I got home at 4.30pm, My temp is 39.5!!!

Fast forward, today is already Wednesday, already took 3 separate blood test for Dengue/CBC platelet count. My Platelets looks good. THANK GOD.

But I still have reoccurring fever when Advil wears off; so what kind of bug is this??? I'm really hoping and praying that I'll get better tomorrow.. Please Lord, My HEALER. I am so looking forward to be out of town with my kids this Friday-Sunday.

Please pray for me. I'm already taking antibiotics. I'm not used to this, It's the first having fever for this long!!




Thanks :)
