ARE YOU HUNGRY? When I'm hungry I always think of pancit and that's what I will cook and have for lunch or dinner. I don't know why. Maybe to make me happy.
Long time ago, pancit (stir fry noodles with pork, shrimps, choice of veggies) was only cooked for a birthday celebrant in the family. It is also the best feast for Christmas, New Year, fiesta, festival, or family get together-reunion. There is that special occasion that you must cook pancit because it is the symbol of unity, happiness. strength, loyalty, and family tradition. Well, it's Chinese in its origin.
Of course who don't love crabs? My hubby had crab sandwich and I cooked the crabs with garlic, onions, and lots of ginger ( + Rice) . There's no taosi so I opted for ginger and some spices.
Too bad that my kids don't eat crabs so I have to cook something else for them.
Fat noodles with veggies and beef meatballs saute' in oysters sauce are good enough for them.
For dessert, I had a frozen fruit salad but my kids don't like that they would rather have chocolate-vanilla ice cream bars.
Typically, members of my family are fuzzy eaters. That's why planning for daily menu would take quite a while to think what is best for everybody, something we can all agreed upon. Because I can be very fuzzy too because I don't eat feathered birds such as turkey and chicken. So when dinner calls for roast chicken or roast turkey I have to eat fish or other seafoods: crabs, shrimps or prawns, squid and mussels.
Humans have to eat right? That's why there are an abundance of supermarkets and grocery and convenience stores in Canada. Canadians love to shop and they help the Canadian economy. If you don't eat and you don't buy Canadian goods you are not much of help to the economy.
The GST & PST is a give & take process.
NOTE: You don't pay GST & PST for foods? Are you sure?
Some taxes are hidden or somewhat included in the regular prices.
