French Toast with Banana Churros
I’m back, baby! OK, I never really went anywhere. I was here all along. I just haven’t had the time to devote as much time as I’d like to cooking, photography, and blogging, which has really bummed me out. I made some time this week, got back at it, and realized how much I miss…

Italian Christmas Cookies An original recipe from The Tasty Page I gotta say, for a Filipino I make a pretty good Italian cookie.
