30+ Something Birthday

I interrupt my travelog to show you some pics of my birthday. The pics are all halo-halo from gifts & food & cards from family & friends.

The actual day is a Tuesday. Treat from DH- Emperor Chinese Food in Mall of Asia. Just us and the kids.

My D12 ladies with husbands prepared a Nigella inspired dinner at BN & SN lovely house. Everyone brought Asian dishes (mostly Thai)

 I made this! Indonesian Chicken Curry

Had such a lovely evening! I Thank God for the gift of friendship! Some of the nice gifts I got, both functional & practical! Love them all. I forgot to take the picture of a pair of hot pants from GT!

 

Portable oven from DH, exactly what i needed.

Lord Heavenly Father,

I thank you for all the years of staying by my side thru good and bad, giving me good health, a nice fun job & career, having a wonderful family & true friends. What more can I ask? I will not lie to you and never will because I'm asking more.... I'm asking more time with my husband, my kids, grow old with them, see my children grow to become man & woman after Your heart, grow in wisdom and excellent character. I want to see success in my children the way You define 'success'. More time & opportunity to share your love to other people. More time to travel with my husband & children. More time with my own parents (they are not getting younger). And lastly, I want to grow more in love with You, be faithful & obedient to you, for the rest of my life...

Your Child.

Food Attack at Mr. Jones & Padre

After DH & I had that "very special time" for 5 days, we are excited to eat. I suggested to have dinner at Mr. Jones at Greenbelt 5. It is actually a "Diner", serving comfort American Food. We invited dear friends, couple CC & LC.

We all had big appetites and we had these...

Salad, the dressing is Raspberry. Refreshing taste.

 

 Shrimp, Calamari, Fish & Clam in a bucket. With 4 kinds of Dip. This one is so, so..

Tapa & Garlic Overload, with eggs have it your way. Quite good, beef is tender with the yummy fat.

 

Dory and Crab Thermidor? Sorry forgot the name of this dish. I liked it, DH said it was a bit bland

 

 DH likes this one. Crab Carbonara. Extremely creamy the way he likes it, you can see it was topped with fresh egg yolk and caviar eggs, you must mixed with the steamy hot noodles!

Friends CC & LC and us have not had dinner for months so we so much stories to catch up. We went to Padre Y Damaso and had coffee and dessert.

 

 

Half eaten queso de bola cheesecake, with preserved Santol.. 

Grabe! we are so busog. DH and I over-ate but extremely satisfied!

Happy weekend! 12.40am in my clock now. I feel like half asleep already from too much food..
