A Week of Relaxation

Yes, that is what my husband and I would like to do after all the busy year. Of course, our day is not complete if we don’t tag along our four little ones along. We can’t enjoy the vacation without them. You know what I am talking about if you children and don’t have anyone to help you around. We do miss them when they go with grandpa and Aunt for a few hours. We don’t know what to do without them.

We will start with the Mystic Caverns and visit two underground caves (my husband would say “there is cave in Branson”?..lol) That would be a nice science or history lessons for my two home scholars, while staying and enjoying the HIlton Branson Convention Center Hotel. Furthermore, we will visit some real estate offices to check house and lot or maybe mostly lot prices around that area. Like I mentioned before we are always in the lookout for cheap properties everywhere.

We are not a big fun of sport like the NAIA Basketball Championship on March 11 to 19, 2009 however, my kids will enjoy the FLW Bass Tournament package available at Hilton Promenade at Branson Landing on March 12 to 15 2009. We have a few days to get ready for this. I know they will not win any prizes, the mere of trying and having fun is enough for them, I’m sure. If not, we can always visit one of the National and State Parks around the area and enjoy nature.

Pork Chop Teriyaki (Grilled or Broiled)

Image
1/4 cup packed brown sugar 1/4 cup soy sauce 3 Tbsp unsweetened pineapple juice 3 Tbsp red wine vinegar 3 garlic cloves, minced 1 tsp lemon juice 1 tsp ground ginger 1/2 tsp pepper 4 or 5 pork chops In a small bowl, combine the first nine ingredients. pour 3/4 cup into large resealable plastic bag; add pork chops. Seal bag and turn to coat; refrigerate for 1 hour, turning occasionally. Set aside remaining marinade for basting. Brush grill rack with cooking oil before starting the grill. Drain and discard marinade. Place pork chop on the rack. Grill, covered, for 5 minutes. Brush with reserved marinade. Grill 15-20 minutes longer or until golden brown. It depends what kind of oven you have. Some oven you only turn the knob to broil other you need to set the temperature. But I usually broil with the temperature of 400 degree F. Or broil set on low because on high it tends to burn the meat fast. You can substitute this with chicken and meaty fish also.

Paksiw & Strawberry Banana Smoothie

Image
This is my FTF entry for this week. Paksiw (sour broth) frozen baby bonito (tulingan). I settled for frozen ones, because this is very hard to find in my area. Always eaten with ton of rice...lol I don't have any other vegetables to mix with it but the pepper. I was lazy to go out (shopping) with the heat we are having. And for dessert; strawberry banana smoothie. I was weeding my vegetable garden today and I was sweating a lot. What a nice drink to have! Very filling (sweet) and refreshing after soaking under a hot sun. For more FTF images, just follow the image below.

Stuff Sweet Peppers

Image
This is my third time making this. I used red bell peppers the last I made some and you can see the images of that dish here . This time I blanched the peppers because DH was complaining last time that the peppers are not cook. And this time added some mozzarella on top too. I like it with cheese and I will make this with cheese from now on. DH only ate half of one and our kids ate the stuffings. I only wish they eat food the way I do. However, I don't have any problem with them when it comes with desserts. For more FTF entrees, please give Ms. Willa's blog a visit by following the image below. Have a great weekend!
