Newlywed Nonsense

💭👫Truth be told, I care a lot more about cleanliness than my husband does, so naturally I take charge more often with regards to tidying things up. This may vary from couples to couples obviously. I personally do not mind because I know he drives us around a lot, plus he does all the yard work and takes the trash to the designated dumpster (because I don't know how to drive the truck which is a manual 😐). We don't normally have a fixed schedule on when the house needs to be cleaned. Sometimes I just have a pretty free weekend morning (like this Saturday, actually!) and so, I turned on some music and started cleaning like a madman. My husband hasn't woken up yet because we went out to eat superrrr late last night and it's a Saturday so I let him sleep in. (He's actually really good with stepping up to do some sweeping or cleaning the dishes whenever he sees that I am tired or tense.) We also just redid one of our bathrooms recently, so the space definitely could d...

😋😋🍲 My husband cooks mostly American comfort food at home. His culinary journey normally does not venture far across the other side of the Pacific Ocean where I think a lot of phenomenal dishes originate from. But that also means I can learn to cook what he enjoys quite easily, plus I also like to indulge in some simple but satisfying home-cooking from time to time. I have never seen so much oven-cooking as compared to when I was growing up in my Asian household. We even splurged on a double electric wall oven in our kitchen when we built our house so he can cook two things at the same time.                                    This post may contain affiliate links: see  affiliate disclosure Obviously, my partner also cooks so much with his  baking sheets  . Chickens, potatoes, hashbrowns... you name it. For example, he made these crumb-coated, oven-fried chicken 🐔 favorite dishes ...

🍚🍚 Food is such a huge part of any culture and one of the best ways to share your background with a loved one is to cook for them. I do the same thing. At home, my husband and I usually cook our own styles and cuisines from our upbringing but every once in a while, I would whip up a delicious dish for him that also reminds me of home. For example, my husband loves loves instant noodles and befriends maruchan even more than I do. I made him Vietnamese Crispy Pan Fried Noodles, or Mì Xào Giòn. This is a flavor-loaded stir fry topped with juicy beef, some seafood, and a delicious blend of flavorful vegetables. A sweet, savory, and tangy brown sauce glosses over a crispy "bird's nest" shape of noodles for a hearty delightful meal. To get the crispy fancy texture from the noodles, I would opt for the Hong Kong style pan-fried noodles easily found at your local Asian grocery store.                             ...
