My classes for the new term start on September 13 and I will be handling two classes. My Saturdays will be packed with a class at 9AM-12NN and another one at 1:30PM-4:30PM. For the next few months, my Saturdays will already be filled, so I wanted to spend my only free Saturday well.
What better way, than to spend the day with good friends and family? My college barkada planned another Salcedo Market day yesterday so I can join them as the market is only open Saturdays, 7AM-2PM. So after a good workout at home, I left to meet the girls at JV's condo. Turns out only JV and I will be able to do the marketing. The irony of it all? We were both on a diet. So, the smell of all the good food in the market was sheer torture to us. We vowed we would return when we've already achieved our goals. For ourselves, we bought mushroom dumplings, fresh lumpiang ubod to complement the green salad we planned to eat for lunch. For the rest, we bought the usual Ineng's barbecue, lasagna, lechon paksiw, guinataang kuhol, paella negro, spicy squid, siomai, hakaw and chicken relleno.
LB with son P, and SC joined us for lunch. It was a relaxing lunch, filled with updates about our lives. Of course we talked about the girls who were not present (haha! I'm kidding of course).
Sorry, no pictures! We were too busy eating and talking:)
In the evening, I, together with E, went to my parents' house for dinner. My Mom prepared this delicious salad of tofu, mushrooms and bell pepper especially for me! How sweet noh?:)

Oo nga, how sweet, supportive and thoughtful of your Mom! (Not surprised, though, since you've told us time and again about what an amazing mother she is.) The salad sounds superb. What else was in it? What kind of greens and what dressing?
Good job on sticking to your healthy routine. Can't wait to see your fit self in Dec/Jan!
