But because it’s tradition, it really isn’t that much of a surprise anymore, is it? Haha. Still, we try to pretend that it is by keeping it from the celebrant and trying […]

Lao Ban Chilled Soya Bean Curd

Modern Family is one of my favorite TV shows because it has both comedy and heart. You will laugh at their antics but at the end of most episodes, there is usually a lesson to be learned that makes you appreciate your loved ones, especially your family.
