I am no food blogger. Though I secretly wish I could cook, eat, and get paid for it. Or better yet, travel and eat. But alas, it probably doesn't work that way anyway.
However, I have been cooking and eating recently... And paying for it in pounds...haha. I need to make a resolution this new year, but that's another story.
Baking had been good since if we #bakeitforward on social media, Food Network donates a dollar to No Kid Hungry. But this next little treat isn't baked. It is pan fried to perfection. Meet Caroline's first Ravioli:
With the help of the Ravioli cutter/squisher (or whatever that tool is called) I have to say that these were probably the tastiest and easiest things to make. The hardest thing was hand shredding the parm..but now I have extra arm muscles on that side.
Unfortunately, we don't have a recipe since my stepmom and I just love winging it in the kitchen. But this is what went in it: ricotta, mascarpone, parmesan, spiral ham my daddy slow cooked a couple days ago, spinach, black truffle salt. The dough is just water and flour, and I didn't see what went into the cream sauce other than heavy whipping cream and the nutmeg I ground to keep my arm muscles strong...haha.
But it was delicious!

Below I have put a photo blog from my time in a Karen Hilltribe Village. The family stole my heart, and I wish to never forget them. I pray we were at least 1/2 the blessing to them, that they were to us. Enjoy the photos, and check out my mission blog for more on the village.
Also, we learned a Karen recipe when we were helping cook one night. I put it below since everyone needs to know it. It is quite delicious.

Let cook for 20mins or until squash is soft. (covered)
Add Yellow Curry toward the end.
