I thought I’d share some photos of stuff that’s going on in my home.

I made some Khao Thom Gai, which literally translates into “Chicken Boiled Rice”, on Saturday morning. It’s one of my favorite homemade dishes and I think it tasted pretty close to how my mom makes it. I made the broth from scratch, poured it over some cooked rice, and topped it with some salty preserved cabbage, fresh cilantro leaves and homemade fried garlic oil to give it an authentic flavor. Yum. The photo above also features one of the three small square dishes that Holly bought for me…so cute.

I also bought a garden bunch of purple tulips at Costco on Thursday, which have started to open this weekend. Since Spring is just around the corner, I thought I’d freshen up our home with some color.
