The Case of the Bitter Avocado

A couple of days ago, my dad brought home avocados. We love slicing them up and mixing them with powdered milk and sugar for an easy dessert. 

This time, I decided I would take it a bit further and figured I would make Avocado Ice Cream. I had frozen leftover yolks and figured this would be the perfect time to use them. I made an ice cream base with cream, milk, sugar and yolks and added to that the slightly mashed avocados. I cooked everything on top of a double boiler.

Sagada in Food

Last January, I went to Sagada with several of my friends. Travel was a pain in the butt, literally! To get to Sagada, we had to ride a bus to Baguio (which took almost 6 hours from Quezon City) and from there, we had to take a bus again to reach Sagada. The bus ride to Sagada took another 6 hours and was quite dizzying as the road was almost always a zigzag.

When we reached Sagada, however, all the trouble of getting there was worth it. It is a beautiful place with very hospitable people. Except for a guide who tried to rip us off with sky-high tour prices (we went with a different guide, don't worry), everything went well.

My First Blog Entry :)

Yay for my first post!


I've been meaning to blog for so long but was a little nervous as to how to go about it. I wanted to write about something I won't forget about eventually, so I figured I'll start writing about my food adventures.
