But the market I really want to go to is Farmers (dun daw si Judy Ann namamalengke!) but... I'm lazy. It's far na!<br /><br />Second, about Vito haha. You should've seen him. So wide-eyed! Ewan ko kung maaawa ako o matatawa.<br /><br />Third, I dunno why people think I don't go to a palengke. I'm very palengkera! <br /><br />Fourth, I'm glad a lot of you share my opinion that good food need not be expensive. I wish we can find a way to educate our less fortunate sisters (and brothers) on how to prepare cheap but healthy meals!Franceshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03762850601924680898noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28615751.post-6108713470300548002011-01-18T14:13:56.771+08:002011-01-18T14:13:56.771+08:00This makes me want to learn how to cook!

Our less fortunate countrymen could be getting more for thier money with fresh produce from the market rather than eating instant noodles and canned goods.

And until now, I go to our area's wet market whenever I can as I would have more ideas on what dishes to cook, compared to just having the yaya do everything. <br /><br />In our province, you can still budget P100 for both lunch and dinner (family of 4, maybe) as everything there's less expensive.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28615751.post-60035739314901105872011-01-18T11:31:58.225+08:002011-01-18T11:31:58.225+08:00I have to agree with you re: buying veggies instea...I have to agree with you re: buying veggies instead of instant noodles!
