Happy Belated Thanksgiving

Opps. I've been busy, and a bit lazy to edit images. So, there's a line of random adventures.

I guess I'll start with the most recent thing, which was Thanks giving! I hope everyone had a nice one. I actually did something this year, and spent it with Mike's family (kind of).

Mike always joked (or maybe he was serious) about never letting me see his house, so I never really expected him to invite me.



We were actually eating at Mr. Ramen last week when this conversation happened:


He eventually invited me to Thanksgiving dinner with his family, and to be "American" (joke, because I'm Asian). I was all sunshine and bubbles while waiting for him to ask! haha.


He had beef ramen btw!


And I had chicken & bamboo ramen.

I was so nervous meeting them. I decided to make truffles, 'cause I think sweets are a safer way to go... since I'm not sure if they'll like anything else I cook.


Crushed oreos! I have one of those crazy Blendtec blenders. They're amazing!


Tempering chocolate always scares me... because something always goes wrong. I really need a thermometer...


A cute container to place the chocolate.


Finished products! Well...atleast the nicer looking ones. I kept the "rejects" for my family to eat.




Two tiers of chocolate!

They didn't touch it when I was there, so I was afraid they didn't like it. They actually ate all of them within the 4 hours that Mike & I weren't there! I'm surprised they even ate the matcha ones!

Mike told me that his mom said I should make more for Christmas. Yay, possible acceptance???


Oh, and Mike & I saw this while driving to his place. Har har... I actually did go see Harry Potter, but that'll be another entry.

I'm sad the Thanksgiving break is over... There's 3 more weeks of school though, so winter break will be soon! But, before that there's finals and thus, it is now crunch time :(.

Sleep time!
