Pinay mom parenting her Caucasian/Filipino daughter in suburban America.
And on to the Diet New Eating Lifestyle beginning tomorrow.
But, before I do that, I’d like to present some photos of what I indulged in this past week —My participation in Sarcastic Mom’s Weekly Winners.
French Onion Soup Made the Right Way at the Stanley Hotel

The Stanley Salad - note the Elk medallion slices on the side

Ten minutes later, a clean plate. Yes, it was that good!

A piece of Apple Pie Heaven. Doc’s Deep Dish Apple Torte - best baked apple dish I’ve ever had!

Coconut Fruit Salad with Kumquats - For a Filipino like me, the holidays would not have been complete without Buko Salad. Adding Kumquats was Jack’s suggestion and now, I would always have to make it WITH kumquats.

Ube (Purple Yam) Ice Cream - even Jack likes this traditional Filipino ice cream flavor. So happy when I found this available at our local Asian market.

Homemade Birthday Cheesecake - special request on my stepd’s birthday. Lovingly made by Dad. I had a couple of slices with Whole Berry Topping.

Mouth watering yet?
Come back next Sunday when I share photos of my Cucumber/Celery juice, Millet Mash, Salad with Sprouts, Organic Pears and Apples and other “healthy” foods.
Mary is my "I'm Not a Baby!" daughter and this is my blog about her and our life in suburban America. Parenting tales, our travels and travails, forays into great and not-so-great restaurants, kitchen adventures--- all chronicled with as much photos as you can stand. Comments are very much appreciated --- let me know you dropped by! Thank you.

The Stanley - as in Estes? What a fantastic place, although I’ve never eaten there (if that’s what you are referring to!) Great photos! Have a great week.

Wow, that ice cream is awesome - I’ve never seen such pretty purple ice cream before! I might just like it for the color.
