My cousin and his wife visiting us this weekend!

We gave them the taste of NJ diner experience.

So great to catch up with Noel’s family and Miles made a new best friend!

with my two boys…

Kitchen renovation started in January and it’s a very slow process. I realized all the kitchen hardwares are backed up until April and some are made to order… While waiting for new faucets to arrive, I painted all the trims around the kitchen area.

My happy son helped me make Dduk Guk (Korean rice cake soup) !

Had a few of my girl friends over for a very festive holiday dinner.
I made roasted golden beets salad with truffle burrata, lamb chops with rosemary & garlic as appetizers, and for main, I served Frutti di Mare with lobster.
For dessert, I combined red wine, star anise, cinnamon stick, cloves, brown sugar, boiled with berries then after it was cooled and chilled, I topped it with frozen yogurt. It was such a refreshing yummy treat.
