One of the reasons I put up Heart2Heart was because I wanted to share with everyone many, many beautiful moments and things in life. There are so many times when I get so excited, I want to tell everyone about the wonderful event I attended or describe the delicious meal I had….and if only I could bring everyone to join and partake of these wonderful moments.. I WOULD! So, thanks to Heart2Heart for helping me vent out my excitement! 🙂 by letting me share them with not only family and friends but to many others who may appreciate them like I do
My friend Margie
invited me over for lunch in her lovely home.
She told me she had asked 20 of her girlfriends over to celebrate her birthday….Whew! I am so honored and lucky to have made the cut! 🙂 Thank you Margie for inviting me and for making me a part of your special day!
I enjoy Margie because she always makes me laugh! She was my bootcamp classmate for two years and now we just bump into each other in Rustan’s, food markets, or in the gym.
My best best meals are those that are homemade specially by family and friends. I would choose home cooked meals over restaurant food any day! I truly truly appreciate the gesture of them being proud of their talent and sharing it. Not only the cooking part but the preparation of everything in having a meal in your own home…
Margie not only makes the PAELLA OF THE CENTURY but she cooks many other good dishes as well. For her birthday celebration, she made Thai food and wow! I loved it!! She made everything from scratch (except dessert). Everyone of course was also raving…though many of the ladies already tried Margie’s cooking, they continue to rave and rave about her cooking…
Papaya Salad
Spicy Prawn Soup in Coconut Milk
Pineapple Noodle Salad
Shrimps in Wonton Baskets
Five-spice Spareribs
Thai Spring Rolls
Massaman Beef Curry
and for dessert, Tako
Happy Birthday to a super funny, super crazy and super nice friend!
