Beef caldereta

Chunks of beef stewed in tomato sauce and coconut milk for hours. Serve with rice to eat really, really entertaining.

I do not believe the March will come to an end.

It's been a month of slow moving for me because I feel that I mostly stay at home, sleep, and watch the Ru Paul's Drag Race. Other than that I do not remember anything that happened during the last three weeks! Joke.

Yesterday was a day of recognition of Ykaie's. He received a medal for being the first place in the MTAP math challenge. Yes, it is an award that is small but I'm a proud mommy. I am not as smart as she was growing up. I just mixed in the crowd and almost invisible.

This is the kind of moments that I am grateful that I work at home because I can get really good care for him and guide him. And it was something I wanted to do for my family since, being able to be there for them whenever they need me. To shower them with love and care ...

One of the best ways I do that is setting up their comforting food like beef caldereta.

Ykaie has grown fond of this dish because he loved the sauce that came with the flavorsome his cow that he poured over hot rice. I was really surprised when he asked me to teach her how to cook caldereta.

It is a day of Holy week next week and I'm planning my menu of vegetables and fish.
