Hubby was nagging my older brother to get even a cheap auto insurance for his car last time we were home. I bet it’s because he knows how much repair the car needs. He’s been telling me that it really needs…
Peach on Yogurt
“An apple is an excellent thing — until you have tried a peach.” -George du Maurier Well, apples are apples and peaches are peaches. We might have different preferences but yes, both are fruits we love. Peach used to be…
Seared Tuna with Mango Tomato Salsa
(fatty tuna) I always had trouble cooking fresh tuna. If I remember correctly, I only had one post about tuna that I cooked at home. I can never get its taste out even when grilled, fried or baked, I can…
Edible beads
