It was a happy and simple new year. Our four walls has kept us warm from the cold outside while dining on home cooked meals. I spent the last day of 2015 cooking my first crispy pata and my famed palitaw. It was quite a success even if I chilled the pork in the freezer for just about an hour. I thought it was going to be a disaster after burning some parts of it while boiling. In the family, I seem to be the only one who has the patience to make dough and find uncommon ingredients so I become famous for just persevering enough to make the dessert. The dishes were very Filipino yet not as lavish as how most Filipinos homes would have spent their New Year's Eve.
By midnight, there were fireworks but I only took a peek through the window. A greeting and a warm kiss from the man in my life made the beginning of my year worthwhile.
