    I was browsing through your blog (a daily habit I must say! You got me hooked :razz: ) when I found this recipe for pineapple coleslaw. I have to confess it was a bit of a lifesaver! I was racking my brain for a side dish for the grilled rib-eye I was planning for a home-cooked Valentine’s Day dinner (yes my hubby and I are so MAIS, ha ha ha…at least it saved us from splurging on overpriced restautants and crowded parking lots). Seeing the recipe reminded me how he LOVED the pineapple coleslaw his grandmother used to make. I made it as a surprise that night much to his delight. I repeated the recipe again as a side dish for our grilled rack of lamb a few days later. Not a drop of mayo was wasted. And like the caldereta he demolished, the same fate met the coleslaw. Thanks again for putting up the recipe! :grin: :grin::grin:

    have been browsing from this site alone for almost 7 hours now, reading one recipe to the other that i must have read almost all of your posts. even told my husband a few hours back before he went to sleep how each posts excites me and there is only an hour left for breakfast.

    even read most of the comments and didnt thought i would post one until i read this. i feel for you when you snapped a reply to your husband’s rantings.

    i dont understand how a mother’s cooking can be nostalgic when a lot of times its not properly done and tastes bland.

    grew up in a family where each member knows and cooks good food. i, too, may not be the best cook but i know i cook well.

    now, i live with my husband’s family, with his mother and older brother. problem is, my husband’s older brother is not much of a fan of herbs, spices and gourmet-ish type of food for his meals, which im used with cooking and experimenting with. he adores me nonetheless.

    it still makes me feel insecure that he’s the only one who doesnt like my cooking and would trade it for anything her mom cooks be it flat-fried scrambled eggs soaking in oil.

    thank God my husband and i have the same taste for food! but since we live with them, i always have to consider his “kuya” whenever i cook, sacrificing what taste good to me- meaning, my dish would sometimes go halfway bland. what better way should i deal with this?..

    im not the type who copies recipe from anyone- i always try to incorporate something to make it my own.

    i instantly fell in love with your recipes because you have a wide variety of exquisite food using ingredients that are readily available in the market. also, you don’t specify brands unless it’s no-good. plus you can turn a simple dish into a gourmet. not to mention, my own recipes are diversified.

    this site is heaven-sent to every household!

    will be making your version of bacon and egg for breakfast a little later.

    this recipe, fried chicken, garlic-mayo sauce & pineapple coleslaw i will make for lunch.

    i hope i have time this afternoon to shop for the unavailable ingredients of “the most sinful chocolate cake” because i may not be able to sleep soundly until i tasted this.

    thank you, connie! you really made my day!

    i will post comment on how your recipes turned out. and i promise it wouldn’t be this long next time.

    have a blessed day!

    Iya, good luck! Sons have this attachment to mothers, a sort of hero-worship. They tend to place their mothers in pedestals. Daughters tend to me more objective. Perhaps, it’s FIlipino culture. But, given time, the apron strings are cut to a certain extent. :)

    ms. connie,
    can i substitute regular flour seasoned with salt and pepper instead of corn flour? i don’t have it in my pantry. :D
