I know I’m done posting my entry for Lasang Pinoy 8 but my kids took turns making mocha latte and choco latte earlier tonight and… why waste such a wonderful story? Because it really was quite a story–I ended up drinking one tall glass of mocha latte and two short glasses of choco latte. How could I say no after all their effort, eh? Of course, after that, I swore I won’t eat a thing tomorrow. :razz:

So, that’s my 12-year-old daughter making mocha latte. What she put in them, I don’t know exactly. I know she mixed strong coffee with chocolate following Sha’s instructions in the choco loco comment thread.

And that is how her mocha latte looked when she was done–complete with a drizzle of chocolate syrup on top of the whipped cream.

    What’s up with these girls obsessed with drinks? Mine are the same way…they have been experimenting with duplicating the starbucks frapuccino:???:

    Yeah, the generation of Starbucks crazy kids. :razz: LOL it’s been around 4 hours since I had my third glass of latte and I still feel full.

    My daughters always use fat free or 99% fat free or sugar free alternatives in their drinks. (We’re a family prone to diabetes) Also, they are so conscious of calories. Since there is no fat free cream, they skip that lovely part. hehe

    That looks good! I love those pirouettes on that latte.

  7. rhodora on April 8th, 2006 10:19 pm

    hay, really - kids can make the best concoctions! my 15-year old girl also does a lot of experimenting, and i’m happy because she is learning her kitchen craft. Kaya lang, magastos sa ingredients kung minsan - haha!

    perfect for a pregnant lady..hehe.

  9. Connie on April 9th, 2006 2:29 pm

    noemi, we tried sugar substitutes long ago (hubby comes from a family of diabetics) but there’s an aftertaste that lingers…

    so do we, ludwig, so do we hehehehe

    LOL relly… uy, we’re doing the green mango shake tomorrow. we got everything we need. :grin:

    iska, aba i-post mo syempre! priceless moments yan. we should immortalize them. :)

    rhodora, yeah that is so true. me, i TRY to tell them not to be wasteful. Sometimes, I succeed, sometimes I don’t :razz:

    dexie, the baby in your tummy will be so happy. hehehe and the mommy of course hahahaha

    So sweet naman ng daughter mo, Connie. Well, kahit siempre super taas ng calories niyan basta mga kiddo natin ang nag-offer, drink at eat ang mga mommy.

  11. stef on April 10th, 2006 12:20 am

    naku, mas type ko naman ‘tong mga concoction ng anak mo kesa starbucks ‘no! kami rin we make our own — at a fraction of the cost pa!

    :grin: I’m so happy to read about your site in the latest (April 06) Filipinas magazine’s Web Watch “What’s Cooking?” (p.11). They wrote a very nice article about you. I subscribe to this mag here in the US. You deserve the recognition…congratulations!!

  13. melai on April 10th, 2006 11:43 am

    parang ang sarap :)

  14. Connie on April 10th, 2006 4:59 pm

    hay, lani, that is sooooo true. they hand me their concoction and it isn’t just about being delicious. it’s pride and happiness of a mom.

    stef, totoo yan. super bloated ang prices sa starbucks. SOBRA!

    Lourdes, really? Wow, where is that magazine published? US?

    Hi Melai, very refreshing. It’s dessert and coffee in one! :)

  15. Lourdes on April 11th, 2006 2:05 am

    Happy to inform you that Filipinas Magazine is published monthly by Filipinas Publishing, Inc. GBM Bldg. 1580 Bryant St. Daly City, CA 94015. The editor and publisher is Greg B. Macabenta (g.macabenta@filipinas.com) and their website is: http://www.filipinasmag.com The article described your blog as very informative but fun & playful at the same time ( I agree ). I think it’s widely circulated here in the US & they even sell it at Barnes & Noble, one of the biggest bookstore chains here. Something to be really proud of!!! Congrats again!

  16. Connie on April 11th, 2006 2:39 am

    Thanks, Lourdes. For the info too. Actually, I searched Google a while ago and I found the online version. Unfortunately, the article on page 11 was supposed to be continued at page 16 and page 16 wasn’t there. ‘Di bale, so long as the URL is correct ok na ‘yun. :)

  17. Lourdes on April 11th, 2006 2:42 am

    :smile: by the way, I checked the March 06 issue of Filipinas (Manny Pacquiao on the cover) & they mentioned a little bit about your blog in the same Web Watch column, but in the April 06 issue (with Susan Roces on the cover) they devoted the entire column to you! Wish there’s some way you can post the article & share it with your other readers.

  18. Connie on April 11th, 2006 12:25 pm

    Oh, that was the one I saw then… the March issue. When the April issue is online, I’ll be able to read it. :)
