my mom prepping and cooking our noche buena feast: seafood pasta,  turbo broiled chicken, embutido, macaroni salad, pinoy style gelatin, custard cake. yum!

ok, so i have to start all over again *insert angry face here*.....

adding to the kids' collection. we actually have the 1st 12 books already, which we bought from ebay. but we found this entire brand new set at a very good price, it didnt matter if we have 2 of each (of the 1st 12 books)!

went out to buy stuff for our noche buena. it took me 3 hours and 3 grocery stores to do all my shopping. traffic was horrendous and the pouring rain made it worse. dont get me started with the crowd!!...
