Merienda, May 10. Freshly baked banana bread with chocolate chips and dried mixed fruits

Lunch, Jan 14. Pulled pork tacos with homemade salsa

Hi all! I’m happy that I got to use our DSLR again today, look at that pretty (and yummy!!) picture :) I’ve learned that with all the supermom roles I have to do, Instagram is a big help in keeping my blog updated. Apologies on that as sometimes (okay, most of the time) I really don’t have time to run and get our camera when our baby is perched on her high chair while I’m still feeding her big sister her breakfast :$ Good thing my iPhone is almost always within reach :) Anyway, happy Monday to you all! Have an awesome week ahead :D

Cheers,

Ending the year with a fully home cooked feast for New Year’s Eve. Goodbye 2012, hello 2013! Cheers! 😊🎉 #homecooked #homemade #happynewyear #hello2013 #thecondochef

Lunch, June 28. Cajun chicken salad with homemade sun-dried tomato hummus on sliced baguette

Gary’s back from Cannes! <3

Pasalubong, June 23. Get-your-own chocolate chip and pinipig polvoron

Something homemade for my little sister to bring back to Singapore for la famille. I didn’t bother molding them one by one because they’re all gonna get smashed in the luggage anyway :) Have a safe trip atsy! See you again in six months! #instagram

Merienda, May 30. Peanut butter & Nutella granola bars

Inspired by yumsugar.com’s White House oatmeal bars post. I just HAD to make some after seeing it :D

Lunch, May 25. Mixed salad with homemade garlic-parmesan focaccia bread

Made the bread for dinner last night and can I just say, homemade bread is SO sexy ;)

Dinner, Aug 4.

Build-your-own-burrito: Roasted chicken, salsa rice, cabbage, cucumber, salsa, cheesy spinach dip, garlic sauce, nachos and homemade tortillas

Made everything from scratch except for the nachos, and I’ll probably never do that again unless I have to! Although I made the salsa and spinach dip ahead of time, I was still exhausted by the time I finished preparing and grilling and setting up everything else. It’s not as simple as it looks - prep time was really long (I blame the tortillas). Well, now at least I know I can make all those :) Good thing Gary invited his friends over and we got to share this fantastic labor of love. Nom nom nom nom, delicioso!
