Cooking Time

Im on my 2 days off starting today. Since im bored and nothing to do here at home, its my time to cook for my hubby. Something different. I want simple chicken recipe. As I was browsing online i found this recipe of Crispy Spiced Fried Chicken. Since hubby loves chicken and the only meat we have on the fridge is chicken so i guess ill do this recipe later.

Now guys if you want to try this recipe, Im sharing it with to try if you want.


4 pounds chicken wings, legs and thighs, trimmed of excess fat
2 cups buttermilk or plain nonfat yogurt
2 1/2 tablespoons kosher salt
8 teaspoons ground chipotle powder
2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
Peanut oil, for frying

Cooking Directions:

Rinse the chicken and pat dry. Cut the wings in half and discard the wing tips. In a bowl, mix the buttermilk with 1 tablespoon of the kosher salt and 2 teaspoons of the chipotle powder. Add the chicken, turn to coat and let stand at room temperature for 20 minutes.
In a resealable plastic bag, mix the flour with the remaining 2 tablespoons of chipotle powder, the cayenne and the remaining 1 1/2 tablespoons of kosher salt. Seal the bag and shake to blend.
In a large, heavy skillet, heat 3/4 inch of peanut oil to 360 degrees F. Working in 2 batches, shake the buttermilk off the chicken, put the chicken in the bag with the flour mixture and shake to coat well. Add the chicken to the hot oil and fry over moderate heat, turning once or twice, until golden and crisp, about 20 minutes; lower the heat if necessary so the chicken doesn't brown too quickly. Drain the chicken on a rack lined with paper towels and serve immediately.

Yield: 4 servings

My husband's favorite Pinoy Song

Do you remember Panday? It was shown in ABS-CBN before. My hubby has lots of Filipino friends and he used to hang out wiht them when he was alone here. Now, he had the chance to watch Panday and he like the song of Sugar Free "Makita kag Muli". Now he researched the song and get the lyrics and everything. I was amazed that one day when we got together last year in Davao he sung the whole song for me. Oh im so proud of my hubby. Anyway you can play the music video of Sugar free.

I love Chris Brown! He has a real talent, he can sing and dance, He's young and handsome! I like his song With you and the music video is so cool. Im sure you love it too!!



Wanted: Someone to kill my boyfriend's wife

In the news today, its so funny to think that a woman posted an ad on a popular site here in US called craigslist.org. She posted to hire a hitman to kill his boyfriend's wife. There were 3 person responded on her posted ad.

She got arrested frm posting that ad to hire a hitman. It just funny because me and hubby always look for a car in craigslist. I didnt know the lady had posted an ad about that. Now, she was caught!

I got a real compliment

I always do my job right and fast as I can. Last night i got a compliment from white American guy. He said to his family "Thi is the fastest Ive ever been". I was very feel
flatered because its a good compliement. 

Those compliments like that makes you feel good when you your tired. It boost your energy and inspire me more to do my job always right. I dont wonder why at work there's a lot of Filipinos because they can tell we are hard working people. And im so proud of that.

I just want to share this video about the guy who join the audition in American Idol 08 in Texas. Almost everybody thinks he's a Filipino but some said he is not but he's Asian.

But my husband and even I can tell he is a Filipino. It was really funny audition. He had his costume on and a self-made song or a compose song of his own called I am your brother. I can say what a brave man to face the whole world hehehehe. Watch the clip here.

Busy day...

I just got home from picking up my pay check at T Mall then had to go to the bank to cash out my paycheck to send it to my family. Oh God...i was really busy today since i had to take the bus and walked from home to bus stop.

When i went to PNB I was kinda happy that dollar is 40.15. I thought it went down to 39 pesos. After i send the money i went to Seafood City, a Filipino store, to look for Cocoa as in Tabliya in Visaya. My friend Jackie Lou from Wisconsin asked me if i can buy her cocoa for her puto recipe. I found it but it is kinda expensive. So i decided to go home and wait for hubby to go to other Filipino store i used to go its kinda cheaper in there. Whew!!busy busy busy life...

Ill be back guys..i still have lots of things to post today.

Black voters see new generation gap


When civil rights elders signed on to support Hillary Rodham Clinton's run for president, it was seen as a coup in the competition for the black vote, especially in the Deep South.
Yet many younger black voters seem to be shrugging off the sway of leaders such as Rep. John Lewis and former Atlanta Mayor Andrew Young, siding instead with Barack Obama's history-making bid to be the nation's first black president.

It's a generational struggle that should serve as a warning to Democrats as they head into primary contests in states with large black populations: The black vote today is anything but monolithic.

It also suggests the influence the civil rights leaders have enjoyed as political kingmakers is waning.

Lohan to work in morgue as punishment


Lindsay Lohan is about to see dead people. The 21-year-old actress will soon be working at a morgue as part of her punishment for misdemeanor drunken driving, her attorney, Blair Berk, told a judge Thursday.

She has also spent two months in rehabilitation and has done some community service, Berk said at a hearing on her progress toward fulfilling the terms of her plea bargain.

Her two four-hour days at the morgue are part of a court-ordered program to show drivers the real-life consequences of drinking and driving. She must also spend two days working in a hospital emergency room.

Lohan was arrested twice last year on DUI charges and pleaded guilty in August to misdemeanor drunken driving and cocaine charges. She has already served 84 minutes in jail as part of the plea deal.

Chess master Bobby Fischer dies at 64


Bobby Fischer, the reclusive chess genius who became a Cold War hero by dethroning the Soviet world champion in 1972 and later renounced his American citizenship, has died. He was 64. Chicago and raised in Brooklyn, N.Y., Fischer faced criminal charges in the United States for playing a 1992 rematch against in Yugoslavia in defiance of international sanctions. In 2005, he moved to a chess-mad nation and site of his greatest triumph.As a champion, he used his eccentricities to unsettle opponents, but Fischer's reputation as a genius of chess was soon eclipsed, in the eyes of many, by his idiosyncrasies.<>

US downgrades Philippine air safety


When I flew from Philippines to United States i used Philippine Airlines. I chose it because its only a 1 flight and direct to Los Angeles, CA. One thing too is its cheaper than other air carrier. It was fun and it was okay. I came here in LA safe and sound. But in the news today, The U.S. Federal Aviation Administration has downgraded Philippine airline operations and put them under heightened scrutiny because of their inadequate safety standards, the U.S. Embassy said Tuesday.

The decision gives the Philippines a Category 2 rating along with countries such as Bangladesh, Ivory Coast, Ghana and Indonesia. It means Philippine carriers can continue flying to the U.S. but only "under heightened FAA surveillance," the embassy said in a statement.

The embassy also advised Americans flying to and from the Philippines to use carriers from countries whose civil aviation authorities meet international standards.

Now, since Phil Air has inadequate safety standard right now im sure some of Americans wont take it anymore. And hope the time we will come back home Phil Air will be okay and meet the safety standard so we can choose Phil Air again.

Twins separated at birth met and married

In the news today, I was shocked about the story of two person got married and found out they're twins!

A couple discovered after they had married that they were twins who had been split up at birth and adopted by separate families, according to a member of Britain's House of Lords.

British peer David Alton recounted the story to parliament last month to support his argument that artificially conceived children should be told who their biological parents are.

Alton said he had heard the story of the separated twins from a High Court judge who had dealt with the case.

"This did not involve in vitro fertilization: It involved the normal birth of twins who were separated at birth and adopted by separate parents," said Alton, an independent member of the Lords. "They were never told that they were twins."

"They met later in life and felt an inevitable attraction, and the judge had to deal with the consequences of the marriage that they entered into and all the issues of their separation," he said.

This is really a sad story. How can you deal this kind of situation when you know that your love of your life is a your twin brother or sister. Wow...

Pag-ibig sa Magkabilang Buhay by I-Witness

Watch the documetaries made by Pia Faustino from I-Witness. Its all about Filipinas who wants to marry foreigner and met online. I can relate the show because I met my husband online. In fact when i watched it I met the ladies at the CFO for Seminar and I talked to Ms. Angela for one on one counseling.

They said that when you get here in USA or when you married to a foreigner your life will be better and always happy. They're wrong, not all Filipina live happily. I am happy yes with my life now but ofcourse I have to work hard to help my husband to pay the bills and send money back home to help my family. But i have one friend here in LA stowed away from her husband in Texas cause she and her husband dont really understand each other. Oh well. Just watch the show.

US unveils new driver's license rules


US implemented new rules for driver's license. I know driving has been a privelege to all people who lives here in United States. According to the news, Americans born after Dec. 1, 1964, will have to get more secure driver's licenses in the next six years under ambitious post-9/11 security rules to be unveiled Friday by federal officials.

The Homeland Security Department has spent years crafting the final regulations for the REAL ID Act, a law designed to make it harder for terrorists, illegal immigrants and con artists to get government-issued identification. The effort once envisioned to take effect in 2008 has been pushed back in the hopes of winning over skeptical state officials.

So guys, you have no choice follow the new rules set by the Law of US.

A first! Snow falls in Baghdad


Baghdad is the capital of Iraq. Baghdad has been a center of violent conflict since 2003 because of the ongoing Iraq War. We know that in that place its hot. But today in the news friday morning a snow falls in Baghdad. Everyone was amazed and so happy cause for the first time in memory, snow fell across Baghdad.

One of the people saw the snow said, "When I was young, I heard from my father that such rain had fallen in the early '40s on the outskirts of northern Baghdad," Abdul-Hussein said, referring to snow as a type of rain. "But snow falling in Baghdad in such a magnificent scene was beyond my imagination."

Thats really a miracle. Cause its my first time to hear about snowing in the place around Middle East.

They said that at the late afternoon there were no reports of violence. Thats pretty funny maybe those bad guys was amazed while watching the snow falls.

Peso is drowning!

VS


I just remember that last friday I went to PNB Eaglerock Plaza in LA to send some money for my family. I was really shocked when i saw the exchange rate. Before it was 40.80 pesos for a dollar but recently it was 40.30 pesos now!!I said to myself wow!!What happened to our money??A lot of Filipinos working abroad and they're been sending a lot of remittances. What's going on to our country?I was thinking since peso is start drowning the stuff from Philippines should be cheap now. But my sister said that its more getting high. This is ridiculous! How is that happened? I hope our president will make some move cause she let the people keep drowning too.

12 yr old boy killed his toddler cousin

Can you imagine a 12 yr old boy killed his cousin by beating her a baseball bat? It happened when the boy watching a cartoon show and the toddler starts crying. He felt interrupted from watching tv and then start beating the toddler fatally. What would you feel guys when this is your daughter?Ofcourse even if it is your nephew you would feel horrified and terrified. A poor 17 month old died just because of she interrupted her cousin from watching tv.

Its my first time to read or hear this kind of case. Only here in United States. Kids now is thinking differently and it is very violently thoughts. I hope parents can guide their kids to a good upbringing. I hope this will be my last to read this kind of case. This is awful!

Its my Pay Day!


I went to work so early today at 8am. When i got to work I had an envelope posted in the window Office. I didnt get it yet cause I had to work first. When i got the chance to get it on my break I was so happy that its my pay check and my T Mall Member Card. Im so happy cause last week the supervisor asked me if i want to stay in T Mall after Holidays. Ofcourse I said Yes!I asked my co-cashier what does it mean. She said Ill be staying in T Mall as long as I want. I was so happy cause Ill be earning while still looking for a full time job. I work in T mall everyday but they can only give the employees a maximum of 30hrs per week. But still Im lucky cause I saw my other batch hired for holidays is not working anymore. Oh well, Im just so happy that I dont have to worry and be rushed to get a full time job.

Shot at Love Part II?


Whats wrong with Tila?Me and hubby keep watching Shot at Love with Tila Tequila. We both like the show cause we thought its a reality dating show. The show was good. Infact, its a number 1 rated show of MTV for the past 2 yrs. But as I was reading entertainment section from yahoo news, I was shocked when I read that they will take another shot of love. They said that Tila and Bobby Banhart broke up!

"The 25-year-old male film student selected last month by Tequila on her popular MTV reality dating show is no longer — or maybe never was — dating the 26-year-old bisexual Internet celebrity.

During MTV's live New Year's Eve programming, Tequila said that Banhart had broken up with her because of her hectic work schedule. "He couldn't handle it," she said. "He broke up with me."

However, Banhart said in a Dec. 30 message posted on MySpace that "she never called me after the last show and no one would give me her number."

I said to myself are you serious?????????????So As I was thinking...hmmmmmm this must be a fake!!How come they broke up simply like that?For a couple of days they already broke up?So me and hubby discussed about it cause we've been following the show before. He said, that its not a reality dating show anymore its simply a business,show business!!

Oh well, thats how they make money on TV. But, I dont think we will still watch the show it feels like we've been fooled.

Nonfat milk linked to prostate cancer



As i read yahoo news today, i read the write up about nonfat milk. They said that the ingredients or the vitamins contains from the nonfat milk or low-fat milk may increase of the malignancy.

Dietary calcium and dairy products have been thought to increase the risk of prostate cancer by affecting vitamin D metabolism. Data from several prospective studies have supported an association, but many other studies have failed to establish a link.

Im a little bit worried cause me and hubby been using this nonfat milk ever since. Ofcourse, I dont want to risk our lives for this. But as i read further about this article that professional doctors' findings do not provide strong support for the hypothesis that calcium and dairy foods increase the risk of prostate cancer.

I feel relieve that nonfat milk is safe.

Guys for more info you can read about this article in yahoonews.

Another Buca Angel!!



Yesterday in New Year's Day I had to work. When I got home I felt tired as always but when I read my brother's sms he said my sister-in-law delivered her new baby! I was very happy that I got a new nephew again! Another blessing for us!!Though I was very tired yesterday I was very excited to see the picture of the baby. My sister described him as same with my niece's look, very thick hair and browned skin and chinky eyes just like his older bro and sis. Though I cant really see his face in the pic I still feel that he got my brother's look. And they named the baby as James Christopher! Named after my husband's 2nd name. Great!
