    Caramelized Onion Spinach and Mushroom Omelette

    Hello Everyone!  Do you every have breakfast for dinner?  I do, actually quite often.  Breakfast food can be fast, nutritious, and delicious!  And I don’t know about you guys, but I am always rushing early in the morning and don’t spend too much time making a real breakfast, so the only time I make an elaborate breakfast, like an omelette, is in the evening. Today I am sharing a breakfast omelette recipe that I like to make myself for dinner.  Although I do think I am a pretty good cook, unfortunately my omelette making skills are a little bit lacking.  Part of this may be due to the fact that…

It’s really good!  I promise!  If you don’t tell people the secret ingredient of this fudge, they would never ever guess!

For those of you who are chocolate lovers like me, I just…

    Korean BBQ

    Okay, I have an adventure to tell you about with this recipe!  It all started when my little sister Laura brought a bunch of of her friends home for a weekend awhile back.  I went home as well to meet them and hang out…. and also to learn how to make Korean Barbeque, otherwise known as, Bulgogi, from her friend Jaewon (Thank you Jaewon!!!).  While my sister was showing her friends around our hometown, my mom and I did the prep work for this dish.  We, chopped up mushrooms, green onions, carrots, and onions.  We also marinated the meat. We were just waiting for Jaewon, Laura, and others to come…
