The other KFC...

Korean fried chicken!








Yes I couldnt wait to take a bite before photographing! These were tasty!

I used the following recipe from Maangchi. Check out the whole video too. The double fry method makes a big difference. I think if I were to try this again (oh the clean up sucks!) I would modify the sauce recipe by adding garlic and cooking for a shorter time so the sauce doesnt end up too thick.

Excuse me, while I pour my self a glass of grape juice...




Untitled
Meet my very own birthday present to myself! The purple color is called grape juice. I love, love this bag! I bought only because it was on sale (a very steep discount). An MbyMJ hobo with a detachable shoulder strap that can be worn cross-body.  It's a great piece that can bring color to any outfit. 


Turning 30 wont be so bad with great arm candy!

It's the most wonderful time of the year

I love love this time of year! I get this warm and fuzzy feeling when I see holiday decorations and Christmas lights. I also love that everyone tries a bit harder to connect with their friends and loved ones!

I hosted a DYI: Secret Santa Tea Party. The DYI part was that you had to make the gift!






Here is my giftee, she looks confused. Yes, that's what I wanted! That way she would be so discombobulated she wouldn't notice the crappy craftsmanship and crooked stitching!



What did you get Mai?



A cake stand made of a a plate and a vase? A apron made of grosgrain ribbon and a dishtowel? Say you love it. Now!



Oh look at my evil little face! I think I'm either so excited about my gift (a framed jewelry hanger) that I was thinking 'my precious' like Gollum from LOTR or I'm desperately trying to ignore that someone is drinking a soda at my tea party.

Stay warm!
