Summertime

Its super hot this March. I can feel the heat through my veins. I've been craving for fruits such as mangoes, singkamas (turnips), watermelon, pineapples, coconuts (buko), and other mouth watering fruits. I prefer eating these fruits when chilled. Greenmangoes with bagoong or shrimp paste; singkamas with vinegar, salt and a little chili; Chilled buko juice thats still on its shell. haysss... It is so relaxing to sit back and relax while eating these fruits.

Don't ever forget the cool and sweetened halo halo. You can find it just anywhere. They're just blocks away from home. From php10, 15, 20 and above. Every stores near my home have their own strategies on how to crash ice. From the traditional way of scraping manually giving the scraper sweat all over before filling up the halo halo glass, and the high tech ones that can only be plugged. Let me just imagine how many ingredients we can find in halo halo? Halo in english means mix. Let me call it mixy mix. Cool huh. First the crashed ice, milk, sugar, then the sweetened bananas, sago, jellies, macapuno, white beans, black mongo beans, kaong, langka, pinipig, nata de coco; the toppings ube, leche plan and a scoop of ice cream. Did I forgot something? Oh well what can I say.. Just hmmm really mouth watering. Can't wait to have one after writing my post here. Lols.


One more way to enjoy summer. Nothing else but SWIMMING!!!!. Its a very lovely day being with your loved ones and families enjoying God's nature, the water. And sometimes meeting new friends on places like resorts specially for singles. This is one way to go to the outside world and start to meet new people. Swimming, playing, chatting and the most special way to enjoy... EATING.

Go ahead and enjoy summer!!! Just always remember to take a bunch of care and watch out for the foods you eat.. Have a wonderful vacation to everyone.
