Camsdcute’s Lair

Before leaving for Australia, my grandmother, aunt and uncles spent two nights in the condominium unit (or a flat as my uncle Dan wants to call it) we recently sold. I was amazed when we visited just weeks after turning over the bare unit. The place was amazing. It’s complete with sofa, beds, air conditioner, dining set and kitchen appliances. Perhaps the buyer got a good deal at a local discount furniture shop.

I joined my relatives for dinner when they arrived in Manila and the night before they left the country. Mamang was very eager to share her secret recipes to me and we had a few chit-chats an alas, I promised to visit them one day in Australia.

I volunteered to cook rice on their first night and to our dismay, it was like a rice soup. Papa and Uncle Ebot teased me and said that I am not used to cooking. Well, it was a long time since I used a rice cooker because my friend Chester said the aluminium used in rice cookers is not good for the health. It is believed to cause Alzheimer’s disease.

Uncle Dan also teased me and is giving me lessons repeatedly and I said “Oh yeah, I just used that rule of thumb you mentioned, I put 2 cups of water to the 2 cups of rice.” Who cares? Even the Care Bears don’t care. We were hungry that night so we didn’t notice we almost ate up all of the so-soft rice.
