Feeling Accomplishment

I am very grateful to   win  Little Miss Reedsville  in our Hometown. First, I thought, "What can I accomplish as Little Miss Reedsville?"  My mother contacted one of the schools in the Philippines   because they need  a school theater.  I do not have a lot of money to donate, so my Mother helped me with a successful fundraiser.  I was able to collect and donate $310 for the roof  of the school's mini theater. It might not be a lot, but it was a big accomplishment for me.

It was exciting  to know that I shared my blessings with others.

Looking at their  pictures, it looks like fun and hard work. I like to say hard work leads to success.

3. Chop and then purée papaya 1 cup at a time using your Kitchen Aid/ Ninja Blender..
4. When that’s done, put it back in a pot and start cooking your puréed papaya adding in your ingredients on a med/low heat. (I let the papaya cook for a good 25-30 minutes to get it the way I want. It’s all up to you on how you like the consistency of it). Also test taste if it needs more light brown or white sugar.

Pop donut

                   

• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 2 teaspoons granulated sugar
• 1/2 teaspoon fine salt
• 2 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
• 6 tablespoons cold unsalted butter, cubed
• 3/4 cup  whole milk
• Canola oil for frying
• Granulated sugar for coating

How to cook .
 

Directions

Pour 2 inches of canola oil into a heavy bottomed pot with a deep-fry thermometer attached. Heat to 350°F.

Meanwhile, in the bowl of a food processor, combine the flour, sugar, salt, and baking powder. Add the butter and pulse several times to cut the butter into the flour until the mixture resembles coarse meal. You can also do this by hand with a pastry blender. Stir in the milk until combined.

Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and dust the dough with flour. Gently pat the dough out until it’s a 1/2-inch in thickness. Use a 2-inch round biscuit cutter to cut out circles.

Fry the doughnuts a few at a time, being careful not to overcrowd the pot. Fry until golden brown and cooked through, about 2 minutes per side, be careful not to  burn. Let drain on a paper bag (or paper towels) to soak up the excess grease.

   • 2 pounds boneless skin-on pork belly, cut in half
   • 8 medium cloves garlic, smashed
   • 2 bay leaves
   • 1 tablespoon black peppercorns
   • 1/2 cup soy sauce
   • Kosher salt
   • Canola or peanut oil, for frying
   • Rice or cane vinegar, preferably spicy, for dipping
     

   
   
   
   

   1. Place pork belly, skin side down, in a large pot and add enough water to completely submerge meat. Add garlic, bay leaves, peppercorns, and soy sauce. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, then lower heat and reduce to a simmer. Cover and cook until pork skin can be pierced with a knife with no resistance, about 1 hour. Transfer pork to a wire rack set in a rimmed baking sheet and season liberally with salt all over. Refrigerate pork until skin has completely dried, 6 hours or overnight.

      Fill a wok or Dutch oven at least 4 inches oil and heat to 375°F over high heat. Working in batches, fry pork until deeply browned and skin has bubbled and crisped, 7 to 10 minutes. Transfer pork to a paper towel-lined plate and season with salt to taste. Cut pork slices into 1/2-inch pieces. Serve immediately with vinegar for dipping.
