It’s been a long time since I last posted pictures of our home-cooked meals. The last few months were unexpectedly busy, so I only cooked sporadically.

Some of you may know that I regularly cook our weekday dinners. Nothing fancy, just simple but nutritious Chinese homestyle meals, usually rice with 2 dishes (veg + meat/seafood) and a soup.

It’s that time of the month again! No, not THAT time, but time to recap some of the dishes I cooked this August. We ate at home quite a fair bit, so enjoy the bumper crop of photos!

Tonight’s dinner was a rambunctious gathering of Ricky’s pals and their families. Total: 12 adults and 7 kids. Naturally the venue was a family-friendly restaurant, Globetrotters.

Looking through my archives, I realized that this year, I haven’t been blogging about what we’re eating at home, save for two recipes. Some people might even get the impression that we eat out a lot.
On the contrary, we eat home more often than out. Breakfast is a must, and our kitchen churns out dinner [...]
