Hibachi at Home

 Happy long weekend everyone!

How is your weekend so far?

We have been just chillin at home, of course.

It has been so cold so its just been better to spend time together at home.

Cheers to the long weekend!

Last weekend,

We made Homemade Hibachi.

I'm pretty sure at this point hubby can make anything we crave for,

This one was one of the best.

Maybe I can get him to write the Recipe,

But he never does.

But anyways, 

It wasn't as hard as you think it is!

We made this Homemade Crab Rangoons to.

Definitely recommend it.

So much better than the ones you get at the Chinese Restaurant!

You can use Real crab and it taste so much better!

Anyways,

This was definitely one of the best dinner.

I can eat it again and again!!

I hope you are having a great weekend!!

1st Birthday

 

Don't blink they said,

They grow up really fast.

..And that really true!

I can't believe my Rainbow baby is now 1.

Oh how fast the time went by.

It is crazy.

We celebrated his Birthday this past weekend.

..And I for sure made it special as much as we can.

It was a fun time.

Even though it was just us.

Cake,

You cannot skip it!

The simpliest but the cutest Cake!

I love how all of this simple decorations came out!

And the Bib for the Birthday Boy!

It was such a special memory made.

We love you little man.

Happy 2023!

 

Happy New year!!

New Year's Eve.

2023!!

I still can't believe that a New year is here. 

Feels like it we were just welcoming 2022.

Holiday's like these,

I like to make it special.

In the simpliest but nicest that I can.

Love the Table setting I did.

All from Hobby Lobby!

For Cupcakes,

Hubby picked it up from Hyvee

Good for the Kids!

For desserts this year.

I picked the easy ones.

Since I didn't have all the time to make Homemade desserts.

..And you know what,

It was nice!

I wasn't feeling pressured to get it done on time!

Of course, 

We had to have the Traditional Fruit Platter.

We had Champagne this year.

For a change!

It was ok.

For Appetizer.

Me and hubby made this Salami Roll ups.

Definitely challenging to make!

Recipe will be up soon!

For Side dishes I made my Favorite

Pesto Tortellini!

So so good!!

(RECIPE HERE)

And we added some Shrimp platter.

We definitely tried to make this Dinner as the easiest to make!

Such a great idea!

We had dinner early and relaxed until the midnight!

It was a great New Year's Eve!!

NEW YEAR, Absolutely no new for a NEW YOU.

 

"NEW YEAR,

Absolutely no need for a 

NEW YOU

Because you're super.

(In fact maybe just be even

more YOU)"

Pandan Custard Cake

 

For this year's Dessert. 

I made something different. 

I thought the color of this will suit the occasion. 

I used the same recipe of making 

( Ube Flan )

..And it turned out as good!

The only difference I did was I used Pandan Flavoring,

Instead of an Ube!

It is definitely a lot of process making this

And it was so worth it!

Let me know what you guys think!

Enjoy!!!

Christmas 2022

 

Christmas is definitely one of my favorite Holiday's

Not just because I can try to make it magical for the Kids,

I also can make it a little special for us.

It may seem really extra,

But who cares right?!

Whatever makes you happy!

So so pretty!

We made our usual favorites,

We did Ham this year 

Since last year we made the Roast Beef.

I kinda missed ham so..

The Recipe for this awesome Appetizer is below!

Pigs in a Blanket Wreath

We had our usual Eggnog.

..And of course my favorite

Winter Aperol Spritz.

To be honest,

The recipe for it is nothing different the Summer ones.

It's just with the Garnish.

Which is Fresh Rosemary and Cranberries.

The cranberries does add good flavor to it.

I love it!

It was a lovely dinner with my loves.

Mac and Cheese.

Green bean Casserole 

and Deviled eggs for Appetizer.

For dessert...

I made Filipino Desserts.

I like to add Filipino touch to our Dinner.

So the boys can try it too.

Filipino Fruit Salad.

And..

This amazing Cake!!

( Pandan Custard Cake )

Soooo Good!

It was a perfect day!

Are you ready for New year's?!?

Have a great week!

Self Care.

Self care.

You are worth the quiet moment.
You are worth the deeper breath. 
You are worth the time it takes..
to slow down, be still and rest. 🤍

 

Baked Sweet and Sour Chicken

 

It has been at least years,

Since I made this.

It was still good as ever.

It may seem hard to make but its always

so worth it!

Let me know what you guys think!!

Have a great night!!
