#FrannyCooks : Creamy Hungarian Sausage Pasta in Clara Ole Red Pesto Sauce

-
Among all the recipes that I can make, I think pasta is one of my favorite. Apart from the fact that I love to eat pasta, it's also so easy to make. All you need to do is to cook the noodles as per the instruction on the package, add in your choice of ingredients and tadah! You get a delicious plate of pasta that never fails to hit the right spot too.

A few years back, I discovered the wonders of deli sausages. Since I always have a very short time frame to make dinner, I would normally pop by the nearest grocery and buy my choice of deli sausages be it Hungarian, Bratwurst or Kielbasa and I'd take these home, chop it into bite-size slices and add it into my pasta dish. The beauty about it is it's actually cooked so you don't have to grill or pan-fry it for a long period of time which as we know can make your pasta noodles soggy if you expose it to heat for long.

Since I recently received a package of Clara Ole Red Pesto Sauce, I decided to do one of my favorite pasta dishes for dinner one evening. I love how they have packaged the pesto sauce into handy foil bags making it easier to use. Normally, I'd get my pesto sauces in glass jars and the quantity is just too much for one serving so it's either you have to quickly use it up or watch out before it spoils or worst, grow mold. Having the sauce in these single foil packs allows you to have just the right amount of sauce for your pasta dish. In today's hard times, being wa-is and cost efficient is really key.

Franny Mommy Finds : Happy Noz Sticker Patch

As a parent, I have one thing that I dread the most and that's when any of my kids fall sick. From the moment we detect the faintest sniffle followed by sneezes and runny nose, we know one thing is for sure -- we will be having a couple of sleepless nights. For twins, it is very common that when one falls sick, expect the other one to follow suit in just a matter of days, sometimes within hours even.  A few years ago, my twins would catch a cold and we really would struggle because they'd become very fussy and cranky at night. They're sleepy and tired from the cold but with a clogged nose, they can't really have a restful night and this means, either one of us will have to sit up and carry them all throughout the night. It came to a point wherein both kids were sick and Paul and I eventually caught the bug too. It was just so hard to care for the kids while you're not in the best condition as well. This got me researching on remedies on how we can have a good night ...

Bag of Beans (Charito) in Tagaytay

I can't believe that we have been frequenting Tagaytay for more than a decade now and not once have I written about Bag of Beans ! I tried searching all over this blog and I found..nothing. To think that not a single trip to Tagaytay, back then, would ever be complete without stopping by Bag of Beans for lunch or merienda. I must have been to engrossed with their coffee and bread that I wasn't able to take photos of the place and their food thus no blog entry. They, after all, have one of the best brewed coffee in Tagaytay and the yummiest bread to go with it too. Bag of Beans has been an institution in Tagaytay. Just like us, other tourists and visitors would make sure to drop by in order to grab a bite or to take home some of their homemade goodies every time they find themselves in Tagaytay. Bag of Beans started with one branch along the Tagaytay-Nasugbu Main Road across Residence Inn Zoo and it wasn't even overlooking the Taal. While they may lack in having a scenic ...

IKEA Singapore Pyjamas Party

For those who have watched the movie 500 Days of Summer starring Zooey Deschanel and my ex-boyfriend Joseph Gordon-Levitt, you probably also loved this scene: Paul and I are regular shoppers of IKEA . It's highly possible that someday, we will be able to furnish our future home with IKEA furniture pieces and items as it has been our go-to place since our 1st day here in Singapore. We would joke that if only we can live in IKEA, we probably would go for it. Well, who would have thought that the opportunity would come for us to "spend the night" in IKEA? A week ago, Paul and I were chosen to be one of the lucky few to join the exclusive IKEA Pyjamas Party . It was a 4-hour event starting at 11PM and we were told to come in..what else?!...our PJs. We were too shy though so we just went in our comfy t-shirt and shorts. Well, some were really brave and came in their full PJs complete with fluffy bedroom slippers! This event was to launch the 2015 IKEA catalogue also...
