Pancit With Fish Balls

My creative and innovative "cooking instinct" was put to a test once again when my daughter told me that she wanted to eat pancit one Wednesday afternoon. I didn't have much stock of meat and vegetables in my refrigerator but, luckily, I had pancit. So I just made fish balls out of left over fried fish to give my pancit some garnishings and added scrambled eggs too. Whew, at least I was able to cook pancit for my daughter. she was able to consume a plateful.
How to make a fishball is so easy. Just take away the bones of the fish and shread the fish meat, add flour, pepper, salt, chopped onions and egg. Put a little water and mix all the ingredients thoroughly. orm into balls, then fry.

Choco Latte Rice

What do you do with your leftover rice? Do you give it to your pets? Do you throw them away? Never!
Before the leftover rice start to collect molds and get spoiled, do something about it to make it appetizing.
There are actually many ways to give your leftover rice a new taste. You can make garlic fried rice, mushroom rice, curry rice and a lot more. Now, I have made a ‘champorado” with a twist and called it choco-latte rice because it has chocolate, milk and coffee in it. The rice is soft and it’s a bit mushy yet yummy. It is a perfect food for breakfast and snack. Try it.
CHOCO-LATTE RICE Ingredients: 1 cup leftover rice ¼ cup sugar (2 pieces calamay) 1 sachet 3 n 1 coffee 1 tbsp. creamer 2 tbsp. chocolate powder (or tablea) ½ cup milk 3 cups water Directions: Put the water and leftover rice in a casserole. Let it boil for 2 minutes and keep until the rice become softer. Put sugar and continue boiling for another minute. Add coffee, milk and chocolate powder. Serve hot.

Making My Slippers New

Before After
Recycling old stuff is something which I have discovered, lately, to be fun. The pair of worn slippers shown above was the my first project which was follwed by several others which I will be posting here too in my succeeding posts. I gave this pair of slippers a new look by changing the fabric cover on it with a new one. Doing it was fun and very simple. In fact, it gave me a new idea of one day making my own pairs of more beautiful slippers.
