Homemade Shrimp Pad Thai is easier than you think, bring the essence of Thailand into your kitchen today!
Finally, the elections has come and gone.
I hope you exercised your rights to vote. I did and all I could say is that whatever the final results maybe we must support our newly elected leaders and continue to be vigilant on how they’re leading us. We must continue to be disciplined and law-abiding as the change and healing of our country starts in each of us.
And that’s the first and last time I’m gonna post something politically related.
I am now moving on to noodles.. delicious and easy Shrimp Pad Thai.
I think a lot of people are intimidated when cooking Pad Thai — and that actually includes me. This is the first time I made Shrimp Pad Thai. Because it’s my first time, I made use of a ready-made Pad Thai paste. I bought two brands, compared the taste and ended up loving Kanokwan Pad Thai Paste.
The result? Delicious and seemingly authentic Shrimp Pad Thai in my kitchen. peanutbutter♥ and Ykaie really enjoyed it. There were even leftovers which we ended up enjoying for breakfast the next day.
I do hope I get to cook more meals like this. These past few days have just been quite busy. Next week, it’ll be busier for sure. We’re having a 6-day trip to Ilocos, it’s gonna be Ykaie’s enrollment, then we’ll start getting ready for Twinkle’s first birthday and christening.
Have a great start of the week everyone! I’m feeling a monday vibe today…

But the next moment finance problems causes helplessness and paralyses your spirits and ties your
dreams in the shackles of financial problems. This means that after making your payment on the first month, your principal
balance on the second month will be $199,444.
When you’re negotiated the best deal, let the dealership know that
you have pre-approved financing and give the finance manager a
chance to beat your rate.
I love pad thai but I am allergic to shrimp. I imagine that your recipe transfers nicely to chicken. I’ll have to give it a try. Thanks!

My family would love this. I’d have to leave out the shrimp–I’m not into seafood, but everyone else in the house loves it.

I’ve tried Pad Thai with chicken and with Tofu but never tried with Shrimps, what a great idea!
I am NOT a big fan of seafood or shrimp, but I can see how this would be delicious with chicken. To bad I am NOT a kitchen princess, but I am still mouth watering over these pics
