dad's the culinary expert

dad was amused and laughed when i couldn't stop wowing 
at the huge tiger prawns, succulent fish, tasty vegetable plate 
and the boiling pot of all goodness thrown in. 
thankful. very thankful.

holding the hand that held mine


             
the hand of the strongest and most loving person in my life. 
i cried out to the Lord and He answered my prayer.
He let her come home to us. 
thank you Lord.

the magic pot

dad’s specialty during the new year.
the magic pot of turnip, carrot and minced pork.
simple but full of sweetness.
you can never get enough of it.
once you start, it’s difficult to stop😉

Henghua 卤面 was the gold he found

so one day, my dad came home excitedly and it was as if he had found gold when he gushed about this henghua 卤面 he used to eat in his younger days 😋 so i’m sitting here wondering how life was like for him back then.
