Why I Included Chips and Less Candies For Trick or Treaters Last Night.

Kids expect different kinds of candies when they go out for Trick or Treat. Last night when they came by and saw my plastic bin full of different kinds of chips they were like, "Oh, wow!" 

I let them grab what kind of chips they want and also offer candies and most of them wanted the chips only.

So why I included chips? Because most likely, chips will be eaten than candies. I read from Internet that parents hide, throw away or donate the candies after Halloween. 

And a friend of mine throw them candies away. Sharing a screen shot of my conversation with him. It was a little early when we chatted and there was only 1 kid came by at my house that time which made me a little sad, thinking, who is going to eat the chips and candies?! 😀😀

I am planning to do the same next year and hopefully, I can eliminate the candies in the near future.

Thank you for dropping by, I really appreciate it!

Espie Diosay's Delicious and Affordable Kakanin

A party is boring with out kakanin, do you agree? It adds color and shape to the table setting and it is tasty and very easy to make if you had resources. And if you would rather order it from a seller, it is very affordable. 

When I shop at any Filipino store here in US, kakanin is the first thing I would look for. My favorite kakanin is puto cheese, what's yours?

During my Mom's 70th birthday last June, I ordered kakanin from my very good friend Espie. She used to be the Barangay Treasurer of Barangay San Isidro. She had moved to Barangay Karaos for quite a while now which used to be a part of San Isidro. 

I haven't tasted her products yet as I am not in the Philippines right now but my family said that her kakanin was really yummy! And I trust the judgement of my family, hehehe! I cannot wait to go home to order some for myself, hopefully soon.

Photos below are grabbed from her  FB Account.

Deliciousness overload, yeah?

Look at the Ibos! Oh so pretty and inviting!

Mouthwatering!

This will serve a lot of people already, ain't it?

If you lived abroad and wanted to buy for your loved ones in San Francisco, Agusan del Sur, send her a personal message and you can pay her thru G-cash.

Dara's Pastries

I always try to support locals, especially the people I love, friends and neighbors in their businesses so when I learned that Dara is selling sweet delights like cakes, cupcakes, coconut macaroons and what not, I did not have second thoughts to support her.
 

I have known Dara since she was born because her parents are very close family friends. I remember when she just learned how to walk she can dance gracefully already and had been a part of every barangay activity (dance intermission numbers) during her childhood and everyone loved her performance! I never thought that she would become a baker because she is more of a performer and considering her mom can only make puto cheese (haha!) and I remember, I even have borrowed her steamer many times way back then because I couldn't afford one, (Thank you ate Libeth!), so I kinda really wonder where did Dara get her talent in baking! Just kidding :)
 

To continue, I have ordered cakes from her more than couple times already for my family and they said Dara's cakes are super delicious! I haven't tasted her cakes yet because I am out of the country, hopefully, soon I could have a bite or two, hmm.. maybe a slice or two.

Dara's Pastries bakes mostly custom cakes which is really interesting. You just send photo of the cake you want and she will make it for you perfectly. Or, you can ask her to show her available theme designs, for example, children's birthday cake for boys or for girls, debut, 50th or 70th birthday, etc. Or just visit her page to choose your cake design.

If you did not live in San Francisco, Agusan del Sur or if you were out of the country like me and you want to surprise someone for celebrating whatever occasion or you just want to send a cake gift "just because", you can just shoot her a message on her page and tell her what you want and send your payment thru G-cash, which I also used to pay her. I am not sure if she would deliver because she is a busy mom of 4 cute kids so I think she only offers pick-ups.
 

Below are the grabbed photos of her creations from her page for your reference.
