MOONBERRY

Aren't these the cutest ever!!! I don't eat instant noodles often but the packaging is too adorable so gotta get every flavor. I am leaning towards the pho variety and excited to try. Y'all know I'm not gonna throw away the packaging, rite? 😆😆😆

Savoring every bite of these succulent lobster noodles and other yummy seafood dishes with fam. 🦞🍜💕

The name cracks me up. Please google for the story behind it!

Who said being a 学霸 was easy? If you need me, I'll be buried under my textbooks.

Join me on a nostalgic journey as I retire my collection of vintage cameras and lenses. 📷 Wait, is 2004 considered “vintage” already?!?!?

I often don't feel like filming anything as it's quite a chore to plan, record, and edit. But when I look back, I'm really grateful these moments can be digitally backed-up and savored again.

When work is play and play is work. 😁

I've been noticing that the twins' kitty breath is becoming... somewhat overpowering. 🙊 Especially when they plop next to me in bed and yawn like nobody's bizniz. So I consulted a vet who told me that they are suitable candidates for dental cleaning. BUT THE COSTTT AH!!!!! 🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️ *hands trembling*

Not gatekeeping this. Pho-get pho. THIS is the beef noodle soup that my parents and I enjoyed during our trip to HCM. It felt like a fancier version yet at the same time, it's a modest creation that's imbued with tradition and creativity in flavors. The location isn't in city centre and even the car ride driver marvelled that we were trekking to this district for food.

The family recipe for this beef noodle has been passed down for generations and it came as no surprise that there are imitations. According to my friend who regretfully tried the imitation, the difference was straggering. The original is truly a hidden gem. Obvs trying to replicate a 91-yr old family recipe is no easy feat. I am totally bookmarking for a return visit next time!

I brought my parents on a whirlwind eating trip to Ho Chi Minh last week and boy, we had an awesome time noshing on yummy local eats. Some of them were repeat visits for me, but the first time for my parents to experience new dishes (not the usual ole' pho and banh mi). We are no strangers to Vietnamese food but I have never seen my dad and mom enjoyed Vietnamese food *this* much. On our flight back, my dad even commented that out of the 7 or so times that he'd been to Vietnam, this trip definitely topped them all. 🤩

Personally I appreciate Vietnamese food tremendously because of the mountain of raw herbs that's served with almost every meal. But TBH it's not easy to navigate the city due to language barrier and some random tech hiccups even in this day and age of being able to look up information online prior. Our trip wouldn't have been the same without some generous local assistance. I am grateful that my parents enjoyed this trip and I had a great time too.

On the table: Seafood Mac & Cheese 🧀🧀🧀

The creamiest and cheesiest mac 'n cheese I've ever made, with a *SECRET* ingredient. 😉 Care to guess before watching the reveal inside the video? Hint: it's crispy and packed with umami.
