Double Decker Tours - Washington, DC. (Hop On, Hop Off)

I really didn't expect that it will be that humid in DC. Geez! Because usually in the movies that I watched its always super cold and I didn't expect their summer to be like Manila. I thought its like San Diego ... sunny but cold breeze.

Anyway, we tried the hop on, hop off tours which will take you to different tourist spots.  The ticket that we bought is valid for one day and it will take us on four routes - THE GRAND TOUR, ARLINGTON TOUR, the UPTOWN TOUR (key hotels) and NIGHT TOUR Your ticket is valid for one day. In our case we started our tour late afternoon which means we can still continue our tour the next day. The bus has specific bus stop where you can get off and ride again. The waiting time is every 5minutes but if weekends 15minutes because most of the time the bus is full. It will be standing ovation.

My favorite stops .... next blog :> xoxo

Brown Sugar Meatloaf

MY FIRST MEATLOAF - FINISH PRODUCT
One day, I really I don't know what to do with all my ground beefs in my fridge. Let's just say I ran out of idea whatelse to do aside from meatballs, hamburgers, taco dip, spaghetti meat sauce and etc. You know what I mean?

Anyway, I decided to google simple recipe for ground beef and I found a recipe from http://allrecipes.com/Recipe/Brown-Sugar-Meatloaf/Detail.aspx and I read great reviews about the recipe she posted; saw the ingredients and I thought I'll give it a try since hubby really loves meatloaf.

As you know, that was my first time to cook meatloaf and my husband who rarely gives compliments said he really loved it!!!

By the way, I made some changes to the recipe. Here's my twisted recipe:-

Ingredients
  • 1/2 cup packed brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup ketchup *Instead of ketchup I use Bull's eye orginal barbecue
  • 1 1/2 pounds lean ground beef
  • 3/4 cup milk
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 1 small onion, chopped *I use my NINJA FOOD PROCESSOR instead for thin slices
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger (my meatloaf don't have this one. Because I don't have ginger hehehe)
  • 3/4 cup finely crushed saltine cracker crumbs -*I use Zesta Saltline Cracker & crushed it using my NINJA FOOD PROCESSOR / BLENDER.
Directions
  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease a 5x9 inch loaf pan.
  2. Press the brown sugar in the bottom of the prepared loaf pan and spread the ketchup over the sugar. * Instead I put the sugar on top of my meatloaf then cover it with barbecue sauce. So I proceed first to #3.
  3. In a mixing bowl, mix thoroughly all remaining ingredients and shape into a loaf.
  4. Bake in preheated oven for 1 hour or until juices are clear.               
Have fun COOKING and creating your own. Thanks to the one who shared this recipe.

Master Cuts in Pittsburgh (the Mall at Robinsons)

NEVER TRY THEIR SERVICE (THEY DON'T HAVE ANYTHING TO OFFER BUT ANGER)

I got my hair cut yesterday and for 27 years of my life this is the first time I left the Salon feeling so Ugly and really ticked off!!!! I should have followed my guts to walk out from that salon the moment I interact with their receptionist. She just asked for my name & after she wrote it, she just said she'll be here in a minute not even looking in my eye then she did her own thing. I was standing their in the receiving area for one or two minutes already she didn't even told me that they have waiting area!!! RUDE!!! their waiting area that you won't be able to see anymore because of those hair products that they are selling!!! Urghh!!! I get so teary in anger when I remember this!!!

And the next thing I know... She will be the one to cut my hair!!! I paid $16.98 for the hair cut & I didn't know that literally they will just cut your hair without washing it!!! DANG!!! Their Marketing is so pathetic & stupid!!! Or she should have asked me if I want additional services so that I'll experience full customer service satisfaction!!!! But she doesn't care!!!! She even bad mouth their clients to her collegue in front of us!!!

HORRIBLE!!!!! HORRIBLE!!!! The only thing I am so thankful that I just let her trim my long hair & didn't trust her to style my hair!!! She just trim it which my mom can do for me!!! I even told her that it is already heavy & as a hairdresser she should know that she needs to do trimming inside so it won't be thick but will be of the same length I want!!!!

$16 is not worth it!!!! I would never ever as in NEVEEEEERRRRR go to MASTER CUTS!!!!! WORST!!!

I never blog saying UGLY things, but it should ring a bell to all of you that this Master Cuts pushed me to!!! Because they are TERRIBLE in every aspect!!!! I don't like them!!!

Lesson learned. I'd rather go to old salons who can take care of me and give full service than like Master Cuts who don't know how to treat their customers right!!!

I am a sucker for good deals when shopping for clothes, foods and I also like simple / easy recipe that really taste great; just like this Banana Pudding Parfait, this is so easy to prepare but simply delicious just like moi!!! winks!!! :)  

You will need:-

1. Banana

3. Milk
4. Nilla Wafers
5.Whipped Cream as topping (this is just additional if you want a li'l twist for your presentation)

How to make it:-

In a mixing bowl beat pudding mix and 2 cups COLD milk with WHISK. 2min Pudding will be soft-set  in 5min.  (Instructions are at the back of the JELL-O box) and then crush the NILLA WAFERS.

Pancakes for him

He goes to work so early and if I bake a day before his birthday (great excuse huh?), he will know that I am preparing something for his day and I don't want him to know that. I want to make him crazy and surprise him. 

Anyway, I decided to just give him pancakes as his birthday cake since he likes pancakes with hot maple syrup in it. Oh well, Effortless but prepared with so much love <3. Yun naman!!! kilig much? 

He woke up smiling. He said he wasn't expecting that--- tarush!!!! Anyhow, happy!!!
