So we had celebrated a early this year with:
- seasoned baked pork chops
- seasoned rice (with garlic powder, salt and EVOO)
- mac and cheese
- green bean casserole
- corn casserole
- pandesal (a Filipino bread roll)
- pancit palabok
- coconut macaroons

Did I mention this was all for 5 people? Hahaha! Merry early Christmas and happy holidays, everyone!

I really like Wendy’s new french fries.  I wouldn’t say they are better than McDonald’s fries, but they definitely jumped up in scale.  Also I want to say “bravo” for the DT Deluxe hamburger.  It is quite tasty indeed!

It’s a cold/snowy/sleety/freezing rain kinda day here in Hampton Roads, VA!  Matzo ball soup is  definitely one of my favorite comfort meals.  Well actually I usually like grilled cheese sammiches with tomato soup, but the ham went bad! Boo!

So I decided to keep a journal of my experiments for future reference and for anyone who has asked me, “Can you give me the recipe?” I am in no way a professional cook, but cooking has always been a hobby of mine since I was a little kid.

Also since this is the closest thing I’ll ever have to a book, I’d like to dedicate this to the greatest friends and family a girl could have. Thanks for always encouraging and supporting me, and for being my willing guinea pigs! =P
