For the past couple of years, we always celebrate new year at my FIL's home but this year was different. Hubby mentioned a couple of times that we should celebrate holidays at our home so I thought of starting it on new year.
I made some bihon, lumpia, puto, BBQ and hubby made a bowl of fruit salad.
Ms. Burrito doesn't like Ubi but since I wanted to experiment with the puto, I added a spoonful of ubi in the puto mix. It resulted to a darker puto, when it was done, Ms. Burrito asked why the color is purple. I told her that I added some magic to it. I was surprised that she still likes it even with ube in it.
Hubby love the BBQ I made. I used the Mama Sita's marinading sauce this time. The only difference I did is that I boiled the meat instead of marinating it for 2-3 hours because I did not have much time. It was really good, can you tell by the look of the picky eater?
That was a very nice new year for us.
We even had a company later on. The Brady's came up at 10 pm and celebrated New Year's with us. It was their wedding anniversary too.
Hubby and Ms. Burrito left and visited Dad for a while. Mr. Burrito did not want to go because he was getting sleepy so we stayed home. When the two came back, EJ was already sleeping and the Brady's were here.
Have a safe and fun weekend everyone.

Hi sis, ubi is made of purple yam, sugar and water.. It is popularly known as ubing halaya in the Philippines. It is really good in halo halo, we always buy a bottle or two at the oriental store.

You should be celebrating New Year at home so that you can be closer to one another the whole year through. Thanks for the post. God bless you all always.
