Again the adventures of Princess Lau, The BUM, MD, The First
Went to Megamall with my college and med friend Petite A (MD), to facilitate one of our moonlighting applications. Yes, LAUIELAU, The BUM, MD, I (the first kasi si Chatchie yung the second), yours truly, rambling blogger-humorist has decided to slowly put away the bum title. Baby steps. Promise, I will try my best to find a moonlighting raket (“na simple lang at hindi toxic”) before the year ends. My friend Pitet and I have made excellent progress and are waiting for the call backs.
It was, also, the day before my birthday, so I treated her out to lunch at Sbarro (si Pitet ang naging date ko). After that, and a lot of walking (and drinking kasi for some reason, recently, I started getting dehydrated easily), I went grocery shopping for my ingredients…
Ingredients, you say?
Yes, Yes, LAUIELAU, The BUM, MD, I, yours truly, rambling bloggist-humorer has decided to take up an interest in cooking. Opo I have been cooking. Partly due to my fascination with the Lifestyle Network Cooking shows during board review (and half of the reason was so I could keep from studying). This is good, because although I know naman about cooking (Cooking Club member, Grade 5 in Miriam Grade School), most of what I know is in theory. I’m putting the theoreticals to good use now. Sana more opportunities to experiment.
Before I thought I wanted to enroll myself in culinary school (and maybe run ito Judy Ann Santos? More importantly her boylets Ryan and Piolo, ehehe! Joke), but I realized I can use the money to buy my ingredients and experiment. I am very well armed naman with beautiful cookbooks and many cooking show hours (units kumbaga sa college) logged in. I bow to the Iron Chefs of the house, my Manang Zen and Mom (I am but a sous chef rising slowly through the ranks). I still adore the Iron Chef people (Trina sweetie, helleuw) and Emeril, pero my latest idol si Rachel Ray kasi she cooks 30 minute meals. Hehehe.
In addition to this, I want to start an herb garden. Para fresh ang herbs!
I’ve begun with small potted plants na gift saken ni Leia my sister and her boyfriend Chuck.
