I hope everyone is having a wonderful weekend. My family is in town visiting the new house for the first time and I’ve been busy taking them around San Diego as well as cooking for them. The minute our family dog Mochi entered the house, she just seemed to know this was my house and not a random stranger’s house. She immediately started sniffing and exploring every corner of the house which she would never feel comfortable doing if she was visiting another house. I still don’t know how she knew.

Here’s a few highlights from this weekend so far:

Fruit Buckle

I made an fruit buckle for them to enjoy when they arrived. Recipe coming soon.

Surfin’ California from Lucha Libre

I took them to one of my favorite burrito shops in San Diego. They were a little wary at first because they haven’t liked the burritos in the Bay Area, but they really liked the ones here, especially the Surfin’ California special.

Dunkin’ Donuts

They made a request for Dunkin Donuts, so we picked up a dozen donuts and a box of munchkins.

I also took them to Seaport Village since it was so close by.

And we visited The Headquarters along with the old jail cells on exhibit.

We feasted on some Filipino party food. My siblings love pancit so we bought a big tray of it.

Tonight, I cooked a big dinner, including salt and pepper wings, sriracha chicken, and steamed lobsters.

Have a great weekend everyone!
