Our Culinary Tuesday group was held at the house of Rose P. at the nearby village. Hers was my dream house. It has a Filipino / Mediterreanean feel with a little touch of Moroccan accent. It was my fifth time to be there.
This morning’s cooking theme is Japanese, demonstrated by V. Hashimoto.
I’ll try them out next week.
Last night, we had a special guest coming at 8pm.
And then she arrived. She will be staying with us for a week. I like how the boys say “hi” to her or greet her good morning, good afternoon or good evening.

And with three sisters in the same school, we her in our home for three weeks each school year. (Glad that my boys are experiencing this as well).

But Mommy, if you want something and you get it, isn’t that stealing? tee hee hee… then explanation
