bc bloggers meme 02: food nostalgia

My Mama is definitely a very excellent cook, + a lot of people, including relatives, friends + neighbors can attest to that. Needless to say, me + my 4 siblings are always stocked up on good home-cooked meals, which can be a very tasty kare-kare, sinigang or dinuguan, or a delicious spaghetti, or mouth-watering desserts like minatamis na saging (sweetened banana). But my most favorite of them all + the one that brings back all the good ol’ memories from my childhood, + I am finding it hard to find something that tastes exactly like it, is my mom’s macaroni salad. She always prepares one during Christmas + New Year’s celebration. I simply love  its comforting taste. I remember helping her prepare it (with my help extending to de-boning the chicken + shredding the chicken parts to tiny bits).  But more so, I remember the love + nurturing that goes with every home-cooked meal my mom prepares. Sigh, if only I can cook half as good as she does….

Am totally lovin’ every bit of this blogmeme (from the uber cute badge, to ultra-pretty font – that I just can’t resist so I had to copy it into my post – hope you don’t mind sis Kaye ;))

And here is my entry for this week’s topic, my favorite, too! FOOD!

One of the many things that come to mind is pasta, I can eat pasta all day, in any form: macaroni, spaghetti, pesto, penne, etcetera, etcetera! I simply love ’em with any accoutrements, hotdogs, cheese + lots of cheese, dried basil + tomatoes, tuna! Ohh, I can eat just about anything pasta! Now, writing about them is making me hungry + making my mouth water!

Am craving Pizza Hut’s spaghetti with meatalls!Nom, nom! I can go on + on about other food items but I think I’ll just stick with this one, my ultimate favorite!

If bread is the king of Italian cuisine then pasta is the queen!
