[#winter solstice/holiday 2013 homemade #truffles. we made two kinds. #food #thisiseberything]

[today in the wake of #hurricane #sandy, here is some necessary alliteration— siren, sandbags, storm, sinigang! roommate and I did a check list assessment of the home supplies. after the preparatory measures were taken, we decided we wanted comfort. pre-#sandy sinigang was the answer. best believe we did a high five when we had a simultaneous epiphany. mmm, sinigang na hipon. also, side note somewhat pertaining: our servers were young queer filipinos who flirted with each other. sobrang cutes, yo. ah, hope even amidst crisis. // #food #pinoy #soup #sabao #shrimp #foodstagram #pilopino #vegetables #seafood #shrimp #jerseycity]

[it was a long-ass day and i needed protein. sorry, it’s so blurry. baked porgy & sautéed spinach over rice: made a paste of garlic, chives, basil, serrano pepper, soy sauce, agave, sesame oil & lemon. baked 400F for 22-25 min, then 2 min on broil. / #selfcare #fish #seafood #food #dinner #porgy #foodstagram, jersey city, nj.] (Taken with Instagram)
