Another trip around the sun.

 

Another Birthday came!

Is it just me,

Or when you are 

getting older, you just dread 

Birthday's.

Everything comes so fast these days.

Sometimes you just want to pause.

All I wanted for my Birthday this year 

was to slow down time.

So I didn't plan much for the weekend,

It was the first time my Birthday landed on a 

Saturday. 

But all I wanted to do is stay home and rest.

We still planned a fun day. 

But it was all I ever wanted.

The day before my Birthday,

Hubby surprised me with this Beautiful Boquet and Balloon.

It was such a surprise I didn't expect it all.

It was so Beautiful.

I requested a German Black Forest Cake.

Hubby made it happen.

It was so good!

The day before my Birthday.

I wanted to go Shopping

So we went to K in Lautern mall.

It was so nice going to that mall during the week!

No crowd at all!

After Shopping

We stopped by the Cafe outside of the mall.

Match and some Sandwiches, 

It was all so good!

It was a fun fun Day!

Dancing through time.

 

"Medieval Festivals:

Where history and fun collide."

Medieval Market ( Gelterswoog, Germany )

 

I have to say,

This is one of my favorite markets 

here in Germany.

Not just because I love watching shows with this kinda of vibe.

But it just so fun to me.

It's like going to a different time.

They usually have this market twice a year.

If I could I would go every time.

But I'd rather not go if the weather is not good.

They seem to have the usual stuff,

But this year we saw more and stayed longer.

Their music performances was so much fun to watch!

This vibe!!

I had some Radler,

And took home this amazing cup!

Hubby picked up few snacks while we were watching the performances

and this sandwiches was soooo goood!

This potato sticks was something we never had before

And we are missing out.

It was so good,

So worth it!!

What's your favorite market eats?

Metaxa Greek Restaurant (Ramstein, Germany)

 

Greek Food!!!

We finally got to eat Greek food here in Germany,

I have been wanting to go for a while,

But why they open so late?

Anyways 

We went right when they open.

Of course, 

Reservations are highly recommended.

Their decors are nice and have this welcoming vibe.

Even their napkins are a vibe.

I didn't know what to order for drinks,

So I just ordered a beer.

One thing I didn't know about Greek Food is

that it's like Italian food.

Stars with first course,

They came with bread and soup before Appetizer that 

we ordered. 

IT was all so good!

Then we ordered this mix appetizer plate.

It was so interesting to try something new!

I ordered a combination plate that has 2 kinds of meat,

I love seafood so I ordered Calamari.

It was good!

While we were enjoying our drinks 

A lady came to each table and gave everyone shots.

I'm guessing it's Vodka.

What a fun vibe!

After that they gave us free dessert.

We were definitely there more than we have ever been to

any restaurant.

It was such an experience. 

We had such a good night!

Cheers!

Kwek Kwek/Quail Egg (Filipino Street Food)

 

The cravings of my favorite filipino food is here again. 

I wish it would be as easy as buying it,

But I am some where you can just buy it.

So here I am,

making homemade street food.

It was worth it though!

Not as hard as I thought,

Kwek Kwek is one of the famous street foods in the Philippines.

Usually serves in a stick.

Its made with Quail Eggs.

So every time I see Quail eggs at the store 

This is all I think about making.

Ingredients

• 15 pieces quail eggs
• 4 cups water to boil eggs
• 1½ cup flour
• ¼ cup cornstarch
• 1 cup annatto water
• ½ teaspoon salt
• ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 2 cups cooking oi

Instructions

• Pour 4 cups water on a pot. Let boil.
• Add the quail eggs and boil for 3 to 4 minutes. Discard water and let the eggs cool down. Peel the shell off and then set aside.
• Meanwhile, make the batter by combining flour, cornstarch, garlic powder, ground black pepper, and salt. Mix well using a wire whisk.
• Pour annatto water in the mixture. Stir until all the ingredients are well blended.
• Submerge the boiled eggs to the mixture one-by-one.
• Heat the oil in a cooking pot. Once the oil gets hot, scoop a piece of egg from the bowl along with some orange mixture using a spoon. Gently slide the egg and mixture into the hot oil. Let the excess mixture drip on the egg. Deep fry in medium heat until texture of the orange coating gets a bit crispy (around 1 to 2 minutes). Remove from the pot using a kitchen strainer and place in a plate lined with paper towel. Perform this step until all the eggs are cooked.
• Serve with a spicy vinegar dip or your favorite dip.
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  Enjoy!!

GONDWANA-Praehistorium

 

It was another gloomy day in Germany 

so we had to find something to do indoors. 

Good thing about being here is there is so many things 

to do, especially for kids.

Even my teenager had a great time!!

I was in awe how amazing it was inside!

I have never been anywhere like this.

It was just so impressive!

After all of that

It was time for some Drinks and who could

say no to an Apple Strudel.
