• Has it really been four years!?

  

  Because it’s been a little over four years since starting this blog, I wanted to share with you my favorite posts. I should clarify that these are my favorites, not necessarily favorites in terms of post clicks, numbers, or even in being popular among people in my life. Because that’s what it’s all about! It’s all […]

• sancocho

  

  Ben loves to cook. It is so nice to come home from work on Monday nights, because that is his day off, and he loves to have something ready for me when I get home. I’m spoiled. This works out so well for me! I do cook meals sometimes, too, but this has been more […]

• pollo en mole

  

  I look forward to coming home after work on Monday nights. That’s usually when Ben cooks something special for us both. Today he cooked pollo en mole, or Chicken Mole. The beauty of mole is that there are a ton of ingredients, and they don’t always need to be there, or can easily be substituted […]

• Dinner and a Movie!

  

  When I got home from work, Ben already had dinner ready! Then we saw Maleficent at the Majestic Bay Theater in Ballard. Gonzalez and Gonzalez give it two thumbs up! (With our rented car, we left the apartment at 6:40, found parking and were sitting in the theater at 6:58! I still amazed at how that […]

• Slow Cooker Chicken, Sausage, and White Bean Chili

  

  This is a recipe I’ve made often over a the years that I can now put it together completely from memory. Sometimes I’ve forgotten and have added the whole 12 fluid ounce can of chicken stock, and it came out watery, but otherwise still a good eat. Other times, I added more vegetables, or switched […]

• Chamorro Style Empanadas (Chamoru Empanadas)

  

  This is the empanada I grew up with. Not that I ate a great many of them; I probably have only eaten 10 of these in my life. And I’ve never made them. Until now! If you are not familiar with these orange colored, deep-fried beauties, they may seem a bit odd. Unless of course, you are Chamoru, or […]
