While on our way to lourdes last year,We stopped to have our midnight snack it is quiet cold yet we enjoyed eating and making fun to each other.We ate pancit it is a local fried noodles.

Here our very light dessert.Mixed with fruits and rhum with some slice of mango and macarons!!It is me who cut the pineapple and mango.Yup!I am very helpful to them:-)

It is our main menu during christmas sorry to say that i don't know what my sister in law put inside.She wont tell me but i taste mixed seafoods and foie gras.I enjoyed eating:-)
