Ahh, that explains it all. Thank you.

Yeah, that's the much tougher part.

I imagine you can slice them thin, then fry or broil them. I'll experiment next time I get some.

Salamat sa detalye

Normally, I cook the florets in less than 10 minutes, in a pot, so I'm surprised that it took you 20 in a pressure cooker.

You should look into microwaving, too. From experience, this will take about 5 minutes.

@abolisyonista
20 **minutes** in a **pressure cooker**? Wa na nalata?

@liztai
Hahaha. I have the same feeling about my old workplace. Missing just the coffee beans and machine we had at that place. 🙃

@liztai

Sometimes, it's a hit-or-miss thing with OEMs. It'd be interesting to know if the OEM brand is available around here.

I enjoy walking around my neighborhood, but there are days I couldn't go out at all.

@liztai

Do you mind saying the brand/model?

@liztai

And it's owned by a "paper company"? 🤔

@youronlyone
Maybe "on a knife-edge"? it's not strictly an idiomatic expression.

Sometimes, I only bother with translations because it's entertaining.

* Why couldn't I send it to Osaka?
* Why should I be a pervert?
* Why couldn't I have fun? How will I get deformation?

Sabi nga, masama ang mainggit. Pero, mahirap gawin ito. Nakakainggit ang mga bayan kung saan gumagana, mura, at komportable ang #PublicTransport, at hindi lang 'yon, magaling din ang pagpapaunlak ng #ActiveMobility.

I could've comfortably taken a train (or a bus), but the public bikes are just as easy to find, and they simply let pedestrians and bikers share the sidewalk.

If one decides to venture on public roads, the drivers are polite and respect the priority of peds and bikers.

😔

@liztai
Are they the same birds from your older posts? Are sunbirds known for their "homing" instincts?

Starting 1st March, the #Philippines' BPI is going to charge you 10 bucks for transferring shells to your @pinoy #Gcash #ewallet :mastofacepalm:

I've always enjoyed looking at this ornate doorway of an Indonesian restaurant in #MetroManila .

Their Sate Ayam is still awesome - tender, juicy, and smokey, tho the Tempeh Mendoan in the Gorengan platter is less crispy than I remember.

They used to serve kurupuk to nibble on while you wait, but not today? 😶

Glad that I got here before the lunch crowd, and enjoy the quiet of the outdoor tables. Weather is awesome!

@youronlyone@c.im @rom @youronlyone@firefish.social wouldn't that be a violation of the numbers portability law?

@rom

Well, if that's true, then the telcos are violating the law BUT they claim these rogue SIMs don't "appear" in their database, so their excuse is they couldn't do anything about it? How absurd!

@youronlyone @ahriboy

Will have to admit to never having the chance to play it.

Happy to note the kids speaking #Filipino -- but not Tagalog! 😝

@youronlyone

What kind of game is "dampa"?

@ahriboy

@youronlyone

I'll pass on the pineapple. 😝

Sorry, but no on those raisins, in menudo, too. 😜

Apparently, #Marikina has their own take on luncheon meat, they call "Everlasting," which I never heard of before.

If folktales are to be believed, they last "forever," or until they're finally consumed, 😅 without the need for refrigeration. Also said to be a popular dish during community feasts.

The folks who gave it to me, described them as similar to embutido, but the mouth feel is closer to home-made luncheon meat.
