Pinakbet

| cooking

For dinner, W made pinakbet (Canadian style!). J didn’t like bitter
melon at all, but bravely swallowed six pieces down. I’m not too fond
of bitter melon myself, but salt and other vegetables make it doable.
It was so nice of W. to make a point of cooking something Filipino,
though! I can’t wait to introduce them to arroz caldo. I should do
that while it’s still cold.

Also, found Nissin’s Spicy Chicken Yakisoba at the No Frills
supermarket. The next time I feel homesick for the Philippines, you
know what I’m going to eat…
