kopiroti Originally uploaded by annalyn. My former boss invited me over to check out a coffeeshop specializing in Singapore breakfast specialties ~ a newly-opened outlet actually owned by the family of an officemate of ours. After partaking of their menu items in one sitting, I can very well say I can't just get enough of their breads, tea and coffee. It's my newfound addiction, and the only thing that's keeping me from going to this cozy kopitiam every single day is that it's in faraway Quezon City. The star of the show is undoubtedly the kopi bun which is like a ... Continue Reading...
Off to la-la-land
The travel bug will hit me for the next two weeks. I am truly excited and will promise to blog about the nice sights here despite my uber-crazy, juggling-everything schedule. In the meantime, I've been getting these persistent emails for the past few days: " The domain annalyn.net (anna) has reached 80% of its bandwidth limit. Please contact the system admin as soon as possible." Huh? I'd like to know what makes one reach the bandwidth limit. Does 1,000 hits a day count? Hehe. So if I'll be off the air anytime soon while am on vacation, you know the reason. ... Continue Reading...
Food & Heroism: Lasang Pinoy #1
For readers who would like to know about the state of Philippine cuisine, I'd like to invite you all to hop on over to Karen's blog for the maiden round-up of entries to Lasang Pinoy (Filipino Taste).

It is hoped that this collective effort of Filipino bloggers will enable a global audience to sit up and take notice as well as encourage ... Continue Reading...
Food-poisoned!
For the first time in my life, I was a victim of food poisoning. This happened to me early dawn of Saturday when I suddenly woke up with painful cramps on my tummy (like labor pains), vomiting and diarrhea. Indeed, I was too weak and too dazed that I could not even get myself to go to the toilet. I was thinking of the events of the night before when I went to the gym and had a KFC chicken fillet sandwich for dinner. But the culprit turned out to be the tahong (mussels) I ate 16 hours before which also downed more than a dozen people in our office. Apparently, someone ... Continue Reading...
Welcome to my slum book
First of all, I'd like to apologize to some peeps if I haven't been able to answer the memes they sent me, like Yuga for the books and Minette, Celia K , Toni for my choice of cookbooks. I realized that my reading list these days can fit the Hall of Shame as it is limited to internet sites and no-brainer page-turners. But I promise to answer your tags soon, as soon as I organize my bookshelf and get reading once again. In the meantime, my high school buddies Lei and Anna Lyn sent me an email this morning which I couldn't resist answering (not all though!) You're right ... Continue Reading...
