The Hunger Games


ABBEY:  From the time Wilma saw the movie trailer she wanted to watch it. We got a pair of tickets as a contest prize. The story is good as well as the acting. I think it resembles the Japanese movie Battle Royale where they force students to fight to the death until one remains. Anger, hope and love were depicted in the plot. Just can't imagine if Hunger Games will be real, I definitely wish to have the odds ever be on my favor.


WILL: The Hunger Games is a real craze on a big screen. I know this is from a trilogy novel. Thank you and happy birthday VA! hehe.. 
      This movie is not a feel-good movie, not an action also, not a love-love story, I do not know where to categories this one but it gave a lesson how to bond with your family and how you will gain courage despite all the odds. 
      In this movie portrayed the ups and downs of life.. rich and poor. Rating? 7/10.

Tofu with Black Beans


4 pcs of tokwa (cubed and fried)
1 small can of black beans (tausi)
Garlic and onion

Saute the onion and garlic then put on the black beans. Estimate the saltiness as you put the black beans sauce. Put the tokwa. Simmer for 2 to 3 minutes. Serve with hot rice.



VERDICT
WILL:  Well, this viand is one of my favorite but my Nanay hates it.. hahaha! Tofu is not good for her arthritis, but what can she do? I am always craving for anything made from soya beans. And she can't blame me because since birth due to lactose intolerance and allergic reaction on her breast milk, the doctor prescribed a soya milk. 
      Abbey got it right. Its like my Mom went here and cooked for me. Love it a lot! Thanks Bbey!

Lechon Manok

ABBEY: This is Wilma's favorite. One of her closest friend gave it to her as pasalubong. The taste is a little spicy and has a good chicken flavor. The chips are sold at a peso a piece. Just go to a sari-sari store and I'm sure they have it or not as its sold out.



WILL:  Omg! I just do not know, I just miss this chips. Ha! Remembering how I hide those little packets  from my parents. Haha. Anyway, thank you Kathy for this pasalubong! I really really appreciate this. Shocks, ang babaw ko tlga. Haha. 
       For decades, Lechon Manok is still alive and still keeps the filipino happy and that includes me. :) sarap talaga and si abbey nakikiagaw sa akin. :)
