My loving chef

Boy, I am really gaining weight. It's my husband's fault. He loves cooking and can concoct just about anything. I, on the other, would sometimes try to prepare him pansit, salad or bake a cake. Generally, he is the one who cooks dinner, which is not a good idea because I would end up with so many things to wash(poor me!). But comparing to what he has prepared, it's nothing. My all time favorite is risotto with different sorts of mushroom, followed by pasta and sauce of the moment. This could be pesto, or salmon or just about anything he found in the fridge. His grilled chicken is the best, he would marinate it for about 1/2 hour and cook with potatoes underneath. Not to forget his lasagna con spinaci with bolognese sauce. Curry (vegs or meat) is also in my list, we usually eat it with chapati. He learned to prepare the latter from our friend, Kailash. For a long time, he tried to persuade me to eat polenta, but I just can't. The other day, he cooked it with tuna and lemon and it was wonderful. I'm a big fan of pizza esp. thin crust. He would prepare the dough at mid-day and in the evening that is ready to be cooked with different flavors--spinach, feta cheese, pepperoni, artichoke, tomatoes, basil, mozzarella, ham, chorizo...Ummm....Guess, I need to stop here. I am getting so hungry, how about you?

Vacation over

It's kinda hard to get up early again after 2 weeks of staying up late.I've started taking the girls early to bed and of course, they're awake at around 6h30. My husband on the other hand has started working and I think he misses his late mornings. Now it's back to normal sched again. Now, I'm lazily doing my chores and still hoping that my mug of coffee will take effect soon. How do you get back to normal routine after weeks of vacation?

Our mid-week get away in Dijon

Dijon, one of the cities in France, was the destination of our mid-week get away. The city,which is well known for its mustard,is a 3-hour train ride from Genève via Lausanne. As I've mentioned in my previous post ,this was my first time to visit the city. We arrived mid-day to a gloomy surrounding and headed to Quick, sort of Jollibee here. Yet,the real treat was in the old town. Walking on the paved street for me was like being transported to another era. Aside from Musée des Beaux-Arts Dijon, we were able to visit Cathédrale de Saint Bénigne and the Notre Dame de Dijon. However,due to time constraint we were not able to visit other places. Our evening meal was in Le Théâtre des Sens, a small but cozy restaurant and where I've tried escargot. Yes, I did and blame it on the kir! Our dinner was really good,the waiter was very cheery and accomodating. We stayed at the Hotel Des Ducs where we spent the rest of the night watching crime scene investigation. Ah! the joy of havin...

Just like Winnie the Pooh

I want to be like him today. Smiling...even if Erin's sick and hasn't been sleeping well for two nights now. Or despite the fact that my computer is under repair. This post is actually done using my hubby's which he doesn't like coz there were times when his computer got virus because of me. My friends, I will visit you, that I promise so see you around.
