Happy New Year!! This is my first blog of 2016. What better way to start the year off than by talking about what I did on New Year's Day. Last year's New Year's Day Pizza Party was such a success that I decided (or rather my family not so subtly suggested) we do it again this year. I love cooking for my family and friends-I just don't always have the time to do it. This party was the perfect excuse to have everyone over to see our new apartment . Yes we moved, again... My brother suggested Asian food this time and I thought, why not? Originally, I was only going to make egg drop soup and fried rice. But somehow, egg rolls got added to the mix. Then, my boyfriend, who doesn't like either of these dishes, asked if could make chow mien and firecracker chicken (it is New Year's Day, after all). Suddenly, my small menu, turned into an Asian feast. But I wasn't worried, so what that I had never made Lumpia (Filipino egg rolls) or Firecracker chicken from scratch. Challenge accepted!
