Today was a day for shopping for curtain fabrics and curtain rods. After completing my purchases at Fabric Warehouse in Libis, Quezon City, we proceeded to Causeway for a very late lunch. Dimsum mostly, although my daughter Sam ordered a shrimp wonton soup for herself. Disappointed that Causeway didn’t serve egg tarts, we decided to have our dessert elsewhere. At Mom & Tina’s, my husband suggested, which was a short five-minute drive away. We’ve never eaten there before although we’re not totally unfamiliar with the bakery’s products. When friends came over to the house a couple of weeks ago, they brought a tray of Mom & Tina’s profiteroles, we liked it very much and my husband went to Mom & Tina’s a few days later, bought a box of profiteroles and brought it home.

Chicken and mushrooms pasta
My younger daughter, Alex, woke me up on Saturday morning with an announcement that she wanted pasta for lunch. With pesto, she said, and chicken. I said, sure, and figured I might as well go all the way and add mushrooms and a medley of vegetables too. She helped with the cooking, grated the cheese, cut the mushrooms and tomatoes, and did some stirring, then it was on to a great lunch. Too bad the man of the house was out at work and had to miss the spaghetti with chicken, brown button mushrooms, vegetables and pesto.
