… the total weight of all the tomatoes I pulled out of my garden today.

It took 3 bowls to measure the total weight of it all.

Suzhou style Mooncake with Pork Filling

Sunday, September 27th, 2009

This is a little treat that my mom would make when I was growing up. It’s not the traditional mooncake you’d see in the chinese supermarket so it’s not super popular, and I had a hell of a time finding a recipe for this. I asked my mom for her recipe, she sent [...]
