Ground meat (mince, giniling ) is a very versatile ingredient. I always have a few cups in the freezer. I usually add it to sauteed vegetables, soups, and pasta sauces.

Here's something I cooked the other day. I can't recall if I had seen this recipe somewhere but I wanted to find additional uses for curry powder. I added the okra for some fiber and texture.
 
Capones Island 05/14/2010

This is a continuation of my Anawangin post. I was there on May 1 and 2.

You will see several islets once you reach Pundaquit's beach area. Two of the larger ones, Capones and Camara, can be reached by boat.

our ride around the area
The small cove of Anawangin can be found near the town of Pundaquit in Zambales. It boasts of a pine tree covered beach with sand primarily composed of ash fall from the Pinatubo eruption. It is a quiet and peaceful piece of Philippine coastline...  except it seems during summer weekends.

The last time I visited Anawangin cove was 2 years ago. It wasn't summer vacation season then and Anawangin was just starting to become popular  destination to non trekkers on the internet.

Once the instructions on how to get there had become widespread online, the "off-the-beaten-track" aspect of the beach understandably disappeared.
 
"Waterproof" 05/05/2010
 
Hello world! I am currently working on a few posts. Pictures for my posts are currently stuck in a mini sd card that was salvaged from a supposedly waterproof camera. The memory module is all dried out now and I am going to a photography shop to get them transferred. I'll have the posts up before next week. If I am not able to salvage the photos, I'll just have to get some new articles up on the blog.
The camera model by the way is the Olympus 1030sw. If you search the net for information about this camera, it will show a history of waterproofing failure. Unfortunately for us we bought this model when it was newly released. No info then about it's poor waterproof capability.
