Made boiled peanuts yesterday. Somewhat time-consuming but takes hardly any work at all. Yum! Check out the recipe in an older post – enjoy! ❤️
Snacks & Candies
Coconut Candy
For dessert, we had hot tea (honey chrysanthemum) and coconut candy. Perfect ending to a meal. 😁
Garden Cream Wafers – Coconut Flavor
Light, crispy, and delicious, and most importantly, not too sweet! What’s not to like? Lol
Green Tea Kit Kat
This one is a personal favorite – I highly recommend! If you have to decide which flavor to try, pick this one and it’s a couple of dollars cheaper than the strawberry. 😁
Strawberry Kit Kat
Tried Japanese strawberry-flavored Kit Kat for the first time the other day – it was delicious! Not sure I would buy it frequently with that price though. 😂
Chinese Hot Dog Buns
We were hoping to do another hike but due to the weather, decided to stay in.

Rambutans
Rambutans in Costco??? Shocking! So Keith was in Costco last Saturday and came across these rambutans – he bought a pack and forgot to tell me about it till this afternoon, lol. I’m so surprised! It has been over 20 years since I last ate fresh rambutans. I remember as a child, I would often […]
Black Forest Organic Gummy Bears
I haven’t eaten gummy bears for a looooong time. I’m glad there are healthier options now that are free of dyes. I’m partial to the orange and strawberry flavors – delicious! 😁
Cranberry-Pistachio Biscotti
After having tried multiple biscotti recipes over the years, this one is hands-down my favorite. The biscotti itself is firm after the second bake (as it should be) but not rock hard and hence, can be indulged as is, which is something I love to do! They are soooooo delicious!!! Enjoy! Slightly adapted from the […]
Malaysian Durian
It had been a long time since I had a decent durian. Hence, I couldn’t resist when I saw a good-looking batch of Mao Shan Wang durian at an Asian store in downtown Cleveland. Paid about $20 for a tiny one but absolutely worth it! The flesh was thick and creamy and had a delicious, […]
