It's been a busy long weekend, indeed! Cleaning up household mess (partially, yes, but more to be done), clearing the laundry baskets, preparing meals for and bonding with the family. Last minute gift packing (deciding which goes to whom?)! Finishing all my WIPs, yehey! Movie marathon tonight (in my part of the globe, that is) --- the large pack of chips is waiting :) for the goodbye 2012 - welcome 2013 big bang! Multitasking to the max!
As I prepare to go to the market to claim my fish and veggie reservations from my favorite vendors, allow me to leave our family greetings to you all.
This is a product of our simple bonding yesterday consisting of a few-minute family date at a photo studio, then me and my hubby headed to the groceries while our two daughters did their own last-minute shopping. This was culminated by a dinner at Banana Leaf Asian Cafe. I enjoyed the Pomelo Salad Thai Style, Vegetable Samosas and Steamed HK Fish Fillet with Garlic which I shared with my hubby. Family bonding is one of the greatest blessings in life, don't you think so?
Now, it's market time and it will be a real kitchen marathon for the rest of the day, so in case you don't find me here, I'll just be in my kitchen laboratory preparing my menu line up:Leek Mushroom Souffle from the Olive Magazine Philippines
Olive Oil and Spanish Sardines Pasta and Sweet Garlic Chicken and Fish with Broccoli side dish from the Yummy Magazine
How about you? Wanna share how you plan to celebrate your New Year in the comment box below? See you again in 2013 for the making of the dishes I've mentioned!
We plan to welcome 2013 with few friends, at home. Actually that is what we usually do! :)
