They love my spaghetti!

This is my first time to use penne rigate pasta for spaghetti. I got the pack with spaghetti sauce for only P99 or a little over $2. The two cans of tuna cost less than $1. It’s an easy cook meal actually. While waiting for the pasta to cook, sauté garlic and onion in a separate pan. Add in tuna flakes, simmer for a few minutes and then put in the sauce. My spaghetti is ready in less than 30 minutes.

I rarely served spaghetti for dinner. But the kids requested for it and who am I to turn down my angels? They were at the dining table even before the spaghetti is ready. They had a hearty meal. I wish I could resist the temptation of eating too, but the flesh is weak. lol. Oh, quick weight loss pills, where art thou? 😀

GT: Grocery list

I have two separate shopping schedules every week. Saturday or Sunday is market day for me. I replenish raw stock including chicken, pork or beef meat, sea food, vegetables and other ingredients that would last for five days in the fridge. If I’m busy with an online/offline job and have no time to cook, I would open up canned goods or just run to our “suking carinderia” that sells sumptuous and affordable cooked meals everyday. They always save the day.

On the other hand, I do grocery shopping for hotdogs, bread, milk, etc on separate day usually on a Sunday afternoon. I get the usual stuff and as much as possible I stick within the week’s budget unless the kids went shopping with me. I follow the grocery shopping skeds if I’m not too busy, otherwise husband do the latter shopping sked for me.

One of the many highlights of the show taken in Dec. 28, 2003. We were seated at the Upper Box B level of the Araneta Coliseum. Just lucky to be given free tickets to the show. I hope we have a high-end camera during those time so we could capture the amazing Disney on Ice show that features Beauty and the Beast!

My share for MYM.
