In My Kitchen

Finally our big kitchen/dining room has all the wall up. I'm hoping we can finish the wood floor before DH go back to work. Did I mention he procrastinate a lot? Yup, that's my DH. After everything was away, we found out that we can easily have an island in the middle of the top pic and the bottom pic. We also notice that the bottom pic look bare on the top. So, guess what? We will add an island and a few more cabinets there. Maybe a display shelves of some sort. My pots rock will go on top of the upright freezer at the bottom picture.

This is Filipino delicacy. While chatting with my HS friends I got myself making this because we were talking about what to put on the table for "Media Noche" (a family gathering and eating at midnight December 31st).

So, I don't usually slave myself in the kitchen after dinner on December 31st. However, I was tempted on tasting this delicacy so, I made half a batch for myself and whoever wanted to taste it with me in my household. DH and DD tasted it. DD wasn't too crazy about it, but DH helped me ate it. They are many ways to make this and I picked the bake one. I love the brownish crusty sweet on top. For recipe you can simply google it.
