I have always been fond of reading books since high school. During summer breaks from school, I always look forward to a 2-month reading spree of reading pocket books or magazines. But then somehow, since I got so busy and caught up with "marriage and motherhood"...my interest somehow faded and completely disappeared.

But now, I have made a promise to continue my passion for reading. My kids often sees me with a book on my hand during my free time (specially when I'm about to sleep)...and I guess this has made a good impression on them! I always tell them, it's good to read books and I can see their interest in reading are also growing...now I can see books borrowed from their school library plus I saw how excited they were when their Dad and I gave them books as a Valentine's Day presents.

Here are some of the books I have read since the start of the year...

And this book is my favorite and have read it twice already... I promise to read (and buy) more books this year. Thanks to my sister, Dette, who has lots of new books and who lets me borrow them. I hope I can keep my promise...will keep my fingers crossed.

This is my current "flavor of the month"! From Teriyaki Boy Group, Inc, Sizzlin' Pepper Steak House at The Atrium of Megamall. This is so good and affordable...just P185. Served in a sizzling plate, which is wisely covered with a round carton so the smoke and sizzling sauce would not get all over your shirt. As soon as served, you will be asked by the waiter to turn the beef upside down if you wanted the beef to be well cooked. Do this while also pouring their delicious teriyaki sauce.

Half-way through my meal, eventhough I was really enjoying my food, it was only then that I realized I was eating it the wrong way, I should have mixed the rice, beef, and sauce - it's even good to scrape the sizzling plate so you could get the (not really) burnt sauce. Oooh, this is so yummy! I could finish the whole plate without Abet's help...need I say more?

During our second and third visit, I was browsing through their menu to see if I can look for anything else that would catch my appetite. None- I said to myself I'll stick it out with my current flavor of the month...maybe even months and months ahead. By the way, their bottomless iced tea is only P55...really worth it! I am definitely coming back and back and back...
