Ayy, niluto ko na po Ms. Connie. Sarap ng arroz caldo ko. Ang tagal ng pagpalambot ko kasi mother hen yung naibigay sa akin nung chicken farm na binilhan ko. And guess what… since I told them to just clean and don’t cut, they gave it to me just dressed clean; the head is still intact and so with the feet. And to my surprise, when I was cleaning the cavities to take out the innards.. ayy, hindi lang young chicken eggs ang nasa loob, there is this one full egg, still in its sac, and the shell is soft… basically the white has not been formed yet. I tried to cook it with the arroz caldo, pero nabasag and inside is just a yolk. Hahaha, basta masarap lumabas yung “porridge” ko, with calamansi and patis.

You go, Ebba! hehehe Re mumai, hay, naku I won’t ruin my day.

Lani, they are a wasteful people, aren’t they? I hope you’ve seen what I did with the duck carcass from New Year’s Eve?

Melisa, thanks for that.
