FOOD and TRAVEL

I want to go places. I want to eat delicious food. I am in my late 30's. Yes. This is what my blog is all about.

FOOD
I want to share a simple and easy recipe for dessert.  

Creamy Mango Jelly
 Ingredients:
     Ripe mangoes
     1 cup Nestle all-purpose cream
     1 cups condensed milk
     2 evaporated milk
     2 cups water
     24 grams Jelly powder (any brand, I used
     Mr Gulaman)

If you want to make it creamier, you can add 2 cups of all-purpose cream and decrease the amount of water to 1 cup.

It's very easy to do:

Mix all the liquid ingredients in a deep pan. Dissolve the Jelly powder into the liquid ingredients. Cook on a low flame and make sure to stir the whole time.
When it's thick and you think it's ready, prepare for molding.


TRAVEL 

I recently went to Bacolod City in Negros Occidental to attend a church conference. It was my first time to go and  I can say that on the road to Bacolod was breathtaking. Beautiful landscape and gentle people -- City of Smile.

Sad to say, I lost all the pictures I took on the road. I had to format my computer, yes, I had to. I lost all the stills I have for five years. Just because of a hasty unwise decision. Good thing, I still have this on my phone -- The Ruins.

 The Ruins

From Bacolod North Terminal Bus Stop, a queue of tricyle awaits and will bring you to The Ruins. About  20 to 30 minutes from the terminal, tricycle fare is P50 pax and you need to wait for other passengers or a special trip will cost you P150 ( Driver will wait for 1 hour). Fare is a bit pricey maybe because the place is really far from the main road.
