Food for thought

I have to admit, I’m a big foodie. I love any activity that has to do with eating food. Although I have a desk job and don’t get as much as exercise as I want to or should, luckily I still don’t gain weight. I also love cooking food and experimenting with new recipes. I’ve tried a whole array of international cuisines, but I recently realized that I have never tried Filipino fare. This was when I came across a blog with some Filipino and International Recipes that seemed worth trying out. For example, I saw a recipe on trifle. Now, trifle is always a tempting treat, but when a rich chocolate and mascarpone custard is combined with amaretto and mandarin oranges, it become irresistible! I also found pastry making tips that are quite useful (for example, like putting the dough in the fridge to cool in case it gets too oily while kneading it).
