Just celebrated Father's Day last weekend....not with my parents but with my in law. That's the problem when staying too far from home. Not be able to celebrate every single festivals together very often. Just imagine what if living overseas!!!!
Errrr.... However, I'm still glad I'm not staying thousands of kilometers away from home. >o<
Nowadays, it's so easy to get these kind of ready to eat chestnut almost everywhere. In older days, chestnut is normally came in dried or fresh and extra work need to be done before you can really enjoy them. I have a few packets in my pantry that I can make good use of them today. Guess, it's time to get rid of these Nuts... nUts... NUts.... :o) Did you know that vegan baking is the most easiest & quick to prepare baked goodies? And that is what I love about it.
