It's a beautiful day!

It's nice to see blue skies again and on a weekend. I never did during the week because it's always gloomy when I leave for work in the morning and I hardly even notice in the afternoon on my way home. Could be there's just too much on my mind and today is just perfect to just chill out and spend some time with family.

We barbecued chicken and pork which were marinated in my special marinade and we grilled corn and fish stuffed with chopped onions, tomatoes and mangoes. I made a salsa which is basically tomatoes, red onions, mangoes, lemon juice and cilantro as a side dish. It pairs wonderfully with fish.

Lunch is not complete without soup or some broth and I cooked beef shanks with corn, green beans and bokchoy. And this is an ever-present dish in our table because of the availability and ease of preparation- succulent shrimps in spicy sauce with just a hint of sweetness.
Ah, simple food but it turns into a feast when shared and enjoyed with loved ones on a beautiful day!
