Basil Tomato Soup
Gave it a 4 star because I tweeked it to give it a lower fat content as I'm trying to lose weight. I didn't have whipping cream so I just used 1% milk. I used vine tomatoes and roasted it with some garlic cloves before following the rest of the directions. I used 3t of margarine instead of 1/2 cup and made a roux first. Some days, easy and comforting food is all it takes to turn a frown upside down.

Easiest, Most Delicious Meringue Buttercream
Yum! Finally found a buttercream that doesn't taste like sweetened butter! For those having troubles, you DO have to beat the egg whites for a long time. It appears soupy at first and even I was wondering if I screwed it up despite that tips. I kept on beating however and finally it stiffened up a bit. Then I put the butter in little by little and it curdled up a bit. I kept beating it as the tips said, and eventually it became buttercream consistency. I love it.

Pan De Sal I
The pandesal didn't quite come out as I had hoped. I'm used to Aling Mary's sweet and soft (no crust) pandesal. This wasn't bad either, it makes a great breakfast and dinner bun, and I'll probably make it again. I added a whole cup of sugar just to get a little bit of sweetness to it.
