Finally i learned how to cook spaghetti

I know my friends would laugh if they knew about this. This are one of my confessions, yes my friends, i just recently learned how to make spaghetti. It was funny since i have read probably a dozen cook books, recipe books and even those that are found behind labels of a popular tomato can.

I know how to do it, but probably i was just not too brave to try it. As was afraid either to over cook the noodles and make it look soggy or under cook it that it would not feel right to eat it.

But yes, my friends, tonight I've mustered enough courage to do it. Well, preparing it was one thing, making it taste good was another.

Like they say, practice makes perfect...

Byaherong Pinoy Adventures - The Code of Kalantiaw

I woke up today asking myself "when was the last time I wrote anything?".When was the last time i updated this blog? Answer: I think ages ago... To be honest, I really have not found the inspiration to write, heck.. I'm really so lazy that procrastination came so natural when I talk about updating this blog. Before anything else... Happy April Fool's Day. I promised myself that come April 1, 2012, I'd be diligent enough to write... And today is April 1, 2012... So I'm off to Batan, Aklan, a small town famous because of Datu Kalantiaw and his Code of Kalantiaw - a collection of 17 laws during the time of the Datu , before the coming of the Spaniards.  The Code of Kalantiaw I woke up very early in the morning as i had to take an hour plane ride to Kalibo, Aklan. My flight was at 8.30 am and i had to be in the airport early. Talk about not wanting to be late. I left around 5.30 and was at the airport at around 6.30 am. Early bird catches...we

The Code of Kalantiaw - Final

After the early wake up call, the long waiting time, the lunch with my good, old friends, and the short tour of Kalibo, off we went to Batan, Aklan. From the port, it was a short boat ride, just like Boracay Island.. much like Boracay Island... Mangroves on the way to Batan  Upon arrival we were met by lots of people on the port and everyone wanted to take us to our destination. Here are some of the sites we saw in Batan, Aklan... One of the Oldest Churches in the Philippines  The Bell Tower I then realized that I should have paid attention when my batch mate was telling us the name of this church.  A closer look The Altar We then proceeded to the Shrine of the Code of Kalantiaw. It feels good to see something that was part of our history. My only frustration was that, the government had stopped the funding for the restoration of this shrine. Reason: Not a Priority.. Well, it's more fun in the Philippines, as the slogan goes.  Well, the S

February is the love month

Image
Every February we can not help but be romantic, be sentimental, be emotional.. This is the love month.. the month where one sees the color red almost everywhere, where one sees heart shaped decors in almost every window, where one hopes that cupid would shoot his arrow to that man or woman they truly desire. This is the month where one suddenly sings out love songs at the top of his voice without minding those people around him. This is the month where one looks out the window and hopes that his prince Charming would come and sweep her off her feet. This is the month where couples enjoy romantic dinners at places truly memorable and inspiring. For some, this is the month where they can take time off to walk aimlessly on the beach, holding hands while watching the sun sets. This is the month that guys would often go out of their way just to impress the one they love. Be it flowers, be it chocolates or be it an engagement or wedding ring.. Like I always say ":this is the per
