I started writing when I was 8. My mom got me a journal where I could rant (prob so I won't be an annoying brat). I stopped writing for 8 years until the pen and then later on the keyboard called on me again. I blog because I like writing and that's just about it. Hope you get inspired though... Bite the apple!

My Secret Spaghetti Sauce (Beef and Mushroom with Black Olives)
I was looking through "Recipes for My Son" and realized I never shared how I cook my beef and mushroom with black olives spaghetti recipe. I never had the chance to film it because I've been cooking more pink pasta. I also shifted to cooking tuna pasta (using the same recipe) than beef since it's just Sweetie and I who usually eats red pasta.
Anyway, since it was Christmas I thought it would be nice to make my first spaghetti recipe. It was my seatmate, Maica, who taught me how to make it. I had to wing the measurements since she didn't give me any. I'm not ouido when it comes to cooking (that's Daddy), so it was hard at first. I eventually found the right mixture and don't really measure anymore when I cook this recipe.
Well, those who have tried it said it's really good, so I thought it would be useful to share the recipe. It's not sweet pasta and I honestly don't know how to cook Filipino spaghetti (that's Kuya's expertise). Anyway, here's how I make my spaghetti -

I really like having more sauce than noodles whenever I make spaghetti :)

My Favorite Spaghetti
I've always been batugan and when I was a kid my Mom would nudge me awake on Saturdays by telling me that we are going to the grocery. That would wake me up immediately and I'd soon shower and get ready to go with her -- to the Makati Supermarket. I wasn't excited because I'd get the chance to get any grocery item I wanted (my Mom would secretly put things back on the shelf when I wasn't looking), but because it meant that I'd get to eat my favorite spaghetti!
The Makati Supermarket Coffee Shop offers the best spaghetti in the whole wide world. Yes, that is my belief and I'm glad that they still offer the same until now, except that the Makati Supermarket Coffee Shop is now located at Alabang. And I insist on dining there everytime we are in the area.
Finally got the chance to have my favorite spaghetti last Friday after we brought Miguel to the prom venue. The spaghetti tastes the same after all these years.
Yum! Yum!
