Stay on Topic Please

Now wouldn't it be nice to share some Pinoy recipes?

SOME recipes !? - Actually since living with my PH BF I've now come to understand that there seems to be only is ONE PH recipe that they all know and that's Chicken Bloody Adobo ! Dont these people know how to cook anything else !?? :-)

* note I AM ( slightly) joking above......but somedays it's not too far from the truth I assure you.....and even more so when his mother invites us for dinner for me only to get there to be presented with yet MORE Chicken bloody abodo as she "thoght I'd like to try some real PH food" .......it's been 6 years now eating chicken bloody adobo, enough already !!!

PS to the OP, whilst the above is a bit off topic ( although you did mention the Phillipines of course) you'll find that this IS how we tend to roll here, it's not just as strictly moderated as you might be used too but it seems to work ( for most). Trust me we tried the heavy hadned moderation and that SO didn't work for most here I assure you.

On the more serious topics or ones where exact info is required etc then things tend to stay resonably on topic and the answer is usually ( eventually) forthcoming, but where the topics aren't perhaps quite so serious or important then the conversation can tend to wander sometimes, usually ending up back where it started most times ! BUT on a board with a smaller membership such as our own it's that very divergence of conversation that can keep the board moving and alive and keep people coming back for a catch up.

LIkewise sometimes that very divergence of conversation can open up whole new areas of conversation re the topic that hadn't previously been discussed. I personally always view this board more as walking into a bar and having a chat rather that a strict question and answer board - and I personally much prefer it that way. There are probably Pro and Cons for both systems, but that's how things tend to roll here it seems just so you know.

Welcome to the board none the less and we look forward to your posts ( and yes thanks for that link to your own PH's board too).
