Of Sharing Christmas Recipes…

Hey guys, We have been busy moving houses that’s why I didn’t have updates here… until the 24th maybe. And yes, we have to do it this December. I can’t even think of what to have for Noche Buena. The recipes below are still tentative. Just sit down, relax and imagine being with me on Noche Buena, I will be your waiter, and as the food comes,  I will be describing what we will be having for Christmas.
For entree:
Fish Spring Rolls
Thumbs up for something right. This cocktail is prepared …

The wind is getting a bit chilly, a good sign for a Filipino Christmas.
