Jan9: Butter Cookies

Jan 09: the youngest child felt a bit under the weather and so she stayed at home with me today. this was a slow day for which I am grateful that…

* my bunso is feeling better and will hopefully go back to school tomorrow

* I resisted the urge to finish deadlines set for me and instead concentrated on finishing tasks that should have been done long before these deadlines were given: 10+ pants, 20+ polo shirts, several gala (aka pleated) uniforms and lots of hankies ironed

* though the ironing chore was definitely a record of being a top contender for back breaking aches and pains as well as stiff shoulders, it gave me time to concentrate on this task while i was doing some deep thinking

* family dinners and before sleeptime massages for the little ones

Boneless Crispy Pata

Finio boneless crispy pata.

Finio Boneless Crispy Pata

Crispy pata (photos here)  is an entire pig leg boiled with water and spices. After the meat has been boiled and cooked, it is deep-fried. In the photo, the crispy pata is boneless, unlike the other preparations where even the knuckles are included in the frying.

Pork leg + deep frying = artery-clogging happiness.

‘Nuff said.

Finio is on Facebook.
