When Pigs Fly Bar-B-Que
Posted on May 12, 2012 by Ching under Food and Drink, Reviews.
Brian and I got to try When Pigs Fly for the first time this week. We constantly drive by it every time to we got Genesis West Central because it’s on the way. This last time that we drove by it, we finally decided to step inside and give it a try.
I was on my way to Zumba so I didn’t really want to eat too much. Brian and I decided to split a meal. It was a good call because there was plenty of food for both of us.
We got macaroni salad and coleslaw for our two sides. I wish I would have known it was garlic slaw because I hate garlic slaw. Theirs isn’t bad, though. As garlic slaw goes, it’s actually pretty good.
The pulled pork at When Pigs Fly is super delicious. I’m actually glad we went in. I can’t wait to go back and try some of the other menu items. 🙂

Photos from Cinco de Mayo
Posted on May 11, 2012 by Ching under Events.
This is what happens when you celebrate Cinco de Mayo and Children’s Day with a bunch of Zumba fanatics. Many thanks to Meader Woo and Gina Ann for the photos. They were the ones who had cameras that night. Thanks to Hideki for being an amazing host. We had a blast!
P.S. I doubt we even made a dent on Hideki’s fully stocked bar.

Mother’s Day is this Weekend
Posted on May 9, 2012 by Ching under Family.
Brian’s mom will be out of town this weekend so we gave her gift to her early. This weekend we’re having lunch with Brian’s dad and grandma. I haven’t yet heard back from my mom so I’m not sure what we’re doing. Maybe dinner?
If you’re not yet sure where you’re going to celebrate mom’s day on Sunday, hop on over to the Wichita Eagle for Denise Neil’s extensive list of restaurants offering Mother’s Day specials.
P.S. If you haven’t changed your Facebook profile pic to your mom’s yet, it’s time to do it. This is the time of year when everyone uses a picture of their mom as their Facebook profile photo. So make your mom feel special and put her face on your Facebook profile pic!

El Cheapo Con Huevo
Posted on May 6, 2012 by Ching under Food and Drink.
Brian and I made El Cheapo for the first time this year. It’s a dish that we serve with steamed rice because of it’s salty flavor. Steamed rice balances it.
I think it had been about a year since we made it last. We call it El Cheapo because it’s really cheap and easy to make. We just get some ground beef, season it with salt, pepper, and soy sauce, and add some peas and carrots, and we’ve got a meal. It’s super simple.
This time around, Brian wanted to improvise. He decided that he wanted us to use ground pork, instead of the usual ground beef, and he wanted to serve a fried egg on top. Thus, the “Con Huevo” in the name of the dish. It actually turned out pretty well. Although, I still prefer it the traditional way with ground beef and no egg. Brian really likes the new variation, though. But then, he tries to add a fried egg to every meal.
Oh, and since I know how much Brian loves suka, I went ahead and added some Datu Puti to it while I was cooking it. What about you? What do you think we should change to make this dish better?

Catching Up On Much-Needed Grooming
Posted on May 6, 2012 by Ching under Things to Do.
Don’t let the look on his face fool you. Brian loves getting pedicures. His most favorite thing is to have the ladies buff his toenails shiny, in lieu of painting his nails with clear nail polish, which isn’t manly enough I suppose. LOL.
I take that back. Brian’s favorite part is the hot stone foot massage.
I went with OPI’s “Royal Flush Blush” shade this time around. I’ve decided that it will be my new Spring/Summer nail color. I’ll go back to “Kreme de la Kremlin” in the Fall.
I’m kind of boring. Some people pick different nail polish colors every time they get their nails done. I use the same color every time. Sometimes I end up picking the exact same color even when I don’t try. LOL. Although, I’m intentionally sticking with “Royal Flush Blush” this time around because I really, really like it.
What do you guys think?
