Pancit Palabok

It's DH's off today and I promised him I was going to cook for him.  Usually, MIL would cook for us through the weekdays but she goes to work from Thursday to Saturday and we are left to fend to ourselves.  That means either drive thru / take out food, canned goods, or instant noodles. Since I've been pregnant with my little jelly bean, I've been tired lately which means less initiative for me to cook.

I was so excited, I headed straight to the kitchen as soon as I got home.  Halfway through though I felt dizzy and needed to lay down. DH stepped in and followed my instructions until I felt better to continue.  I was planning on cooking palabok and calamari but didn't have the energy to work on the squid.

I followed this recipe.

It got the thumbs up from DH. It actually reminded me of my fave palabok from this vendor in Constancia St. Sampaloc from my childhood days. Ahh nostalgia.

Korean BBQ at Home

DH and I love Korean BBQ.  If you've ever been to LA and the valley, there's a smattering of All-You-Can-Eat KBBQ places around.  The prices are not bad too. Ranging from $14.99 - $19.99 depending on what type of meat you want.  But, we found a cheaper alternative -- KBBW at home!

Pacific Coast Highway Road Trip Part 4

After Hearst Castle, I wanted to check out Sebastian's Store. Again, being the Yelp groupie that I am, I've read a lot of good reviews about this place.  However, I failed to check their store hours and didn't realize that they close at 4:00.  We got there at 6:30 :\

Pacific Coast Highway Road Trip Part 1

I have always wanted to go on a road trip along the PCH. So when DH and I were brainstorming where to go for our anniversary getaway, I suggested a road trip along the coast.  He agreed and I started planning our trip. It was supposed to be just the two of us, but we can't bear to leave Macu behind. And since MIL and BIL are off that weekend, why not make it a family road trip then!
