Seafood Pasta
With the pack of mixed seafood I wrote about earlier, I decided to make Seafood Pasta, in a white wine and tomato sauce. One of the Italian restaurants in Cebu I like is La Tegola and one of my favorite dishes they make is Pasta al Cartoccio, which is seafood pasta in a tomato sauce. After cooking the pasta and mixing in the sauce, they wrap it up in foil and let it stay inside the oven for a couple of minutes. The dish is usually served unopened to your table and a waitress/waiter opens it in front of you. The smell that first lets out of that foil is heavenly!

Things are slowly picking up again and routines are going back to place. I still can’t believe how fast the Christmas season passed by. One minute I was preparing gift baskets to give to friends and family and the other poof! we were celebrating for the new year. It makes you realize just how fast life goes. Yesterday, I was watching my friend’s video diary of the things he’d done the past year and thought to myself “Damn, he’s done a lot. My life looked so bland compared to his.” Literally, he’s the textbook meaning of living life at it fullest every single day. I don’t do a lot of new year’s resolution, but I might take this one up. Although, Hubby did remind me that I did a lot too last year, in my own little way. I quit my job and decided to become a full-time housewife and a hands-on mother. I became serious with my food blog and realized that my passion in life was cooking. Although, I think I would also love photography and I’m crossing my fingers hoping I can finally buy the SLR camera I’ve dreaming of this year. I guess I just needed to be reminded by Hubby of how fulfilling my life has been. Many people don’t realize this but running a household and taking well care of a child is a full-time job in itself. But I’ve also loved every second of it, which is more than I can say from my previous job. Lately, my pleasure has been cooking in the kitchen with Baby. I do my own thing and she does her own too.
