Kitchen Experiments

First of all, I'm not a cook. Whenever I try to make something, usually it's a 50/50 chance that it would turn out right.
We had some left over honey baked ham, and the middle part of it tasted bland. Chopped it into little pieces, sauteed it with little oil in a pan and added mango juice (more of like a smoothie in consistency o.o) and sugar. Ended up tasting nice :D
Now, chief (my dad) bought some pork chops for dinner. :D Now then time to poke the pineapple juice and make a marinade (and later sauce) out of it. xD!!! Added (yet again) sugar and some soy sauce with it. Hopefully it ends up tasting okay again. Hahaha!!! I feel like an semi-evil scientist.

Welcome 2013!

2012 for me was a year of ups and downs. The start of the year, I was in a high mode, recently graduated from Nursing and preparing for my licensure. At the later part of the year, things went south for me, not being able to find work and all that. But thanks to all of my friends (online and irl) I was saved (hate to admit it) from depression (feeling such a failure and such).
Now it has passed, and it's already 2013. New beginnings and challenges. May all our hopes and dreams come true this year. Okay, maybe not all but at least have some crossed off our list. And hope that I don't have a breakdown lol! (Keeping positive nowdays isn't easy)
And quoting my friend, Jenen/Puuchwan (meh, ma-Tito Sotto pa ako nyan eh, hahaha)
"Just don't forget to keep smiling, keep laughing, keep learning and keep moving. And before we knew it, we'll make it through again for another year."

Happy New Year!!!!
