Here's to new Memories...

I am so happy that we finally got to finish unpacking!

What a tiring, chaotic days.

But, it was worth it.

This house is so different to our house in Missouri.

 

But I know we are going to make fun, happy, unforgettable memories here too!

So Here's to a New Home,

New Adventure,

New Memories

xo

See you later, Love.

 

Last day we are seeing our home. 

I am hoping we are able to come back,

At this moment it's still ours and that makes me happy even just a little.

Going to miss this view.

Thank you for all of the amazing memories.

See you later.

=(

Sweets are a must when you are stressed.

 

The day has come!

Packing day.

I don't know this feels so stressful when we are not the one who will pack our stuff.

But, 

maybe because all we can do is watch and wait makes it more stressful.

So sweet treats are a must!

My last Boba =(

YASSSS

It's actually more for the packers.

I couldn't watch any longer

So I decided to go for a run.

It was good!

See you in Germany!!!!

Last Missouri Summer

 

Ahhh... 

Last Summer in Missouri.

At least for a couple of years. 

I still can't believe we are going to couple of Summers in Europe.

I didn't think we would be able to go back...

It's bittersweet because I love it here and I'm definitely going to miss it.

But, I am so excited for the future!!!!

One thing I love living in our neighborhood is having our own pool.

Shared with the neighborhood, yes.

But, the option of not going when we see that its full is just amazing. 

We can go whenever we want. 

Before the packing starts we spent our weekend just chillin and going to the pool

It is definitely HOT!

So relaxing!

The Boys had such a great time!!

Till next time.

Ready to go...

 

Can't believe the time is almost here.

Packing has already started!

Going to miss my babies!

Here's to hoping they come back to me all in good shape!

Let's go!

Here's to New adventures!

The Calm Before the Chaos

 

There's nothing better than a relaxing afternoon by yourself,

With your book..

Taking time before the chaos started.

Going to miss this view for a while.

Love Love Love

I will see you again soon..

Pancit Palabok

 

I have been wanting to make this for a long time.

I always thought it's hard to make.

It's not!

Ingredients:

• 1 lb rice noodles (bihon)

For the Sauce:

• 3 cloves garlic, minced
• 2 Tbsp olive oil
• ½ lb ground pork
• 1 Tbsp anatto powder or 1 Tbsp annatto seeds soaked in 3 Tbsp water
• 2 cups pork broth 
• 1 cup water
• 3 Tbsp cornstarch dissolved in ¼ cup water
• 2 Tbsp fish sauce
• salt and pepper

For the Toppings:

• ½ lb shrimps, peeled and sauteed in oil just until it turns pink (reserve heads and peels for juice)
• ½ cup tinapa (smoked fish) flakes
• ½ cup ground chicharon
• 1 cup boiled pork, thinly sliced and sauteed in oil until golden brown
• 3 hard boiled eggs, sliced
• 3 stalks green onions, finely chopped
• sliced lemon to sprinkle on top (optional)

Directions:

1. Soak noodles in cold water for 20 minutes or until they soften a bit. Cook in a pot of boiling water until tender but still firm. Drain well and set aside.

2. In a saucepan over medium heat, sauté garlic in olive oil until light brown. Add ground pork and cook for about 10 minutes.
3. Mix the annatto powder in pork broth then pour the mixture into the saucepan. Bring to a boil. Add the water. Stir and simmer for about 3 minutes. Add dissolved cornstarch and fish sauce. Season with salt and pepper to suit your taste. Simmer until sauce thickens. Set aside.

4. Place the noodles on a serving plate. Pour sauce on top of the noodles then arrange the toppings over the sauce. Serve with a slice of lemon for added flavor!

So goood!!!!

It was grilling day too,

This is not in hubby's favorite lists so it's just a side for us.

Cheers!

How pretty is this wine glass???

It was a beautiful day!

Surf and Turf!

So perfect!

Love nights like this,

And we will always do it 

wherever we are.
