Krispy Kreme Chocolate Glazed Doughnuts

I was not able to make a post for Food Friday because we were very busy with school activities.

Anyway, we went to the Krispy Kreme  Chocolate Karnival party yesterday at Bonifacio High Street. Will be linking my post here once I am able to write it.

I’m not complaining that its gooey, I love it!

Mussels with Garlic Butter

Below is one of my eldest daughter’s favorite weekend Sunday lunch fare, mussels with butter that has garlic bits and parsley.

You can use a food processor for easier handling of the butter mixture. I used this to make it. This mixture can be refrigerated and used with bread that can be paired with any pasta dish.
