  • The Easiest, Simplest, Quickest, Cheapest Pizza Recipe

    The Easiest, Simplest, Quickest, Cheapest Pizza Recipe | Hola Darla
    There are times when you crave for pizza but it’s just the wrong time, i.e. midnight or raining. But fear no more, my friends, because you can actually make the easiest, simplest, quickest, cheapest pizza ever by using what you usually have in your kitchen. These are what you’ll need:

    What You'll Need For The Easiest, Simplest, Quickest, Cheapest Pizza Recipe | Hola Darla
    Cheese, instant bolognese sauce, and bread. Sorry for the price label :p

    You can use any kind of cheese you have at home, but if you have mozzarella then it’d be better. If you don’t have bolognese sauce, any other kind of spaghetti sauce or even tomato ketchup is okay. Also, I prefer bread with crust but this is the only kind of bread I have at home, so . . . .

    I toast the pizza using a pan over low heat. You can also use an oven, but it takes more time. I don’t have a microwave so I can’t recommend using it.

  • Tofu Teriyaki for A’s Lunch

    On Monday, A started his very first job as a programmer in a game development company. It’s a big change for both of us, as we usually spend our day together. Now that he works a 9-to-5 job, we won’t be able to have lunch together as often as we did do.

    Today, I decided to come to his workplace and bring him lunch. I made Tofu Teriyaki (a simple recipe I’ve pinned to this Pinterest board) and put it into a lunchbox together with some rice. It looks just like this:

    Not really appealing, I know…

    And this is his response:

    I’m not an expert in cooking. I’ve just started learning to cook. But this sweet words from him really made me happy and encouraged to keep learning. Perhaps I will cook him lunch every Wednesday? 😉
