Boopsie, not sure why your message doesn't show up, but was that the question on bacon? I have a post on homemade bacon, here. The recipe I used was from Saveur, here. Monty, thanks for that advice.

Looks really delicious. Just one note, please don’t use the black garbage bags as a container that will directly touch food. These things are made with recycled plastics and may contain toxic chemicals which washing alone won’t eliminate. Learned this from a local manufacturer of these bags. Clear plastic bags that are food safe can be bought cheaply, maybe 10 to 20 pesos for the size that’ll fit that ham.

Hi betty Q: Now you got me thinking about baby palmiers….so that’s what they are called. I did not know what they were until now.

My puff pastry sheets have always sat in the fridge for months, but maybe I can do it with regular pizza dough for small healthy pizza snackies like this one:

OMG, Footloose! Where do you ever come across those things! I HAVE TO PLANT ONE OF THOSE!!!! now am on the hunt for seeds!

Doc, you are absolutely correct! I am going to really hunt for those seeds and that will keep me busy and out of breath! Speaking of thngs that get me going, am on my toes with new found discovery food related of course. Hope MM succeeds with his experiment! if he succeeds, my antenna says he will be the very first one to introduce it back home!

Another one that kept me going was BABY PALMIERS! I have succeeded recently perfecting baby palmiers! Forget wht you read on the web…the recipes shared by those people on the net DOES NOT WORK! They do not share tricks of the trade that would make them look and taste like the one you buy in Paris! So if you can get prepared butter puff pastry sheets, let me know Doc! Footloose, if you want, send me an email and I will tell you how to make them whch I think you will enjoy with your Kape Barako! I know you can get the puff pastry sheets at Walmart…frozen section beside the eggo waffles!

MM: I was just thinking, you are so very good with anniversaries. Is it possible you missed your 10th blogging anniversary? I even went back to your first post in the archives which is the one on Dalandan September 1, 2004 . It had no indication whether that was your maiden post, but I counted, using that as my time reference. If indeed it was, then you are running on your…… OMG, 11th year!!!

After your July 2014 South Africa trip, you must have been so busy the following months to even remember:)

Belated 10th anniversary Congratulations MM and to all MARKETMANILA.COM netizens who have faithfully followed and commented on this blog!

I fear early onset Alzheimers… duh. Yes, of course that’s what lohua is… I couldn’t google when I replied to you (dopey Philippine Airlines Mabuhay lounge doesn’t seem to allow surfing but allowed emails and direct site access)… and egads, Connie, you just reminded me to check another milestone and I let it pass unnoticed. Post on that up next! I am so happy you guys keep me on my toes, I can’t even remember things I have already written about!

Because of that “ampaw” post, I challenged my hipag to locate that store, and she did. She bought about 500.00 pesos worh of almost everything, and when I arrived 3 days after, nilantakan ko lahat yon. Oops, nakikain ang ilan sa mga kasama ko we travelled to my destination in Quezon Province. Some of the young’ings didn’t even know some of the products and another adult didn’t know that store still existed.

I went back to MM’s special post on lohua for Footloose ( welcome back and thanks for the Lapham’s Quarterly link, etc) and got another taste of a post among many that incites commenters’ enthusiasm ( bettyQ’s for one, I can almost feel her running out of breath with her ideas)), even stirs memories of a happy childhood.

Need I say 10 years of this blog’s longevity is a no mean feat?
