July 22, 2025 my auntie and my cousin's birthday as usual we cook some foods to celebrate their birthdays. They also joined the 2 birthday celebration of her siblings she just sent money to her mother the budget was like 15k and they planned before the day what the foods needed to be cooked.
Around 10 AM we chopped the onion and garlic, and it is used for the lechon and grilled pig. It makes the food tastier.
I took a selfie of myself, since I wore all red it's like I'm the one who has a birthday. Every time I felt cute, I just took a selfie of myself since I had a great camera.
My uncle, cook a chicken tinola and it's 2 whole chicken. He checked it and tasted it all good and ready to eat. He wasn't sure of the taste and so my uncle called me to taste it if it was okay but it needs a little pinch of salt and I can remember when we used to cook at our school my teacher once said that the dish that we cook tastes like sea water hahahhaha.
This is the ground pork used for the lumpia, and I really love eating lumpia especially when my grandmother cooks it for us. On the ground pork there are carrots, and some aromatics on it.
This is my other uncle, he put the seasonings to make it delicious. He mixed the soy sauce and he made sure that it covered all of the pork. He will grill it and it's in the rib part of the pig.
And this is me, keep slicing the aromatics into small pieces. I just loved helping my uncle slicing these things. This is the only help I can do with them because I don't know how to cook such things.
This is it, he puts it into the griller and even though it was just soaked for a minute it looks really tasty. It's for their lunch and now it's already 11 am and it will be cooked for just an hour. I'm salivating while looking at this grilled pork hahahhaha.
We just talked with my grandmother about things. As the hours passed by the grilled pork just cooked and it made me more hungry. So I went home and ate some food.
