Panko Breaded Pork Chop

I don't really plan the menu for what we will eat in a week or so.  But most of the times, it is what i feel eating or what my husband feels eating on that particular day.  Sometimes, it also depends on what is available in the fridge.  Like today, i want to make some stew (beef) because of the weather but since we do not have any beef in the fridge and no one wants to go out and buy some, so i ended up making this breaded pork chops instead.  You can use any like flour but Panko makes it more tastier and it gives a lot of crispiness in the pork.

Few months ago after moving to our new place, i did a complete overhaul of the few bags and purses collection that i have which i do not use anymore.  Actually, i am saving them for my family in the Philippines. These are not branded bags because i can't afford one. I am so obssessed with bags, who doesn't?  I purchase this  Retro Croc Hobo purse by Guess.  It is made with shiny faux of crocodile patent which i really like.  Looks elegant and handy when you don't need to bring a lot.  If your a bag fanatic, comment below and share your purse collections!  I would love to hear from you...

A Must Try Egg Face Mask

When i have time in the weekend or when i do not have work I pamper myself with those cheap facial mask that we can buy in the drugstore.  Apparently, i can not afford going to derma clinics because the prices are way too high.  Today I managed to do a lot of things like cleaning the kitchen.  Now it's time to clean (shower) myself.  When i found out that my facial mask are gone, I begun searching in the internet and found loads but i choose the Egg Facial Mask by Michelle Phan.  It's very easy to follow!  Just make sure you got an egg.  I think it pretty did well and give my face a smooth texture especially after applying the yolk.  I will definitely do this again tomorrow because i kept the left over egg.  For the step by step procedure, click here to watch the video.

Classic Burger with Fries

We had brunch in town last Saturday when hubby decided to eat outside.  The three of us ended ordering classic burger with homemade fries plus warm chocolate.  This meal is very famous in La Place.  La Place is a food court of VD stores in Holland.  I think the place is a bit cozy compared to ordinary fast food chains like Burger King & KFC but the price is a little bit high.  But once in a while, we get food coupons that offers some discounts.  Over all, their food is good as well as the ambiance of the surrounding. For those internet freaks, dine in to get free WiFi.  Tip: This is a very simple meal to prepare for your family at home.

Mild Earthquake Last Night

I was busy blogging and watching tele at the same time when i experienced a mild shake of the  house.  It was like somebody was jumping and pushing the house to possibly make it shake like that.  I can not ask any one because i was alone and hubby was not home at the moment.  So, i did not mind what happened.  Then i saw wall status popping up in Facebook saying that they also felt the earthquake.  This is the second time in my four years stay in Netherlands to actually experienced a mild earthquake.  According to the KNMI, the earthquake had a magnitude of 3.1 and was referred as a natural quake that is normally caused by gas. 

Model Paints to Waste

Hubby was finishing decorating the room with wall papers and trying to over haul some things on his table.  Suddenly, i saw these water based paints thrown in a garbage sack.  He collects a lot of paints for his modelling but these were old and dry and just needs to be thrown away.  Actually i forgot to count how many there was but roughly maybe around 40 pieces.  I think he needs to buy a lot more to substitute them. 

The Most Affordable Breakfast in Town

I had a sumptous breakfast yesterday after work.  The most affordable breakfast i ever had so far!  It consists of a piece of croissant, a piece of bread with an egg omelet and a piece of bacon, a strawberry jam plus a choice of thee or coffee.  This is served every day between 9 and 10 in the morning at Hema stores.  Though I am not sure  if this is also available in all Hema branches all over Holland.  You can enjoy this delicious breakfast for only 50php or 1€.  I ordered additional orange juice for ,50cent.
