As indicated by the three measly recipes I've posted so far this year (here, here, and here), I haven't been in the kitchen much as of late. My absence from the Burnt Lumpia Worldwide Headquarters Kitchen is not due to a lack of motivation or hunger (OK, maybe a little bit).
In all truthfulness though, my winter has been very, uh, eventful. As the saying goes, In like a lion... I suppose.
Note: Not an actual lion.
I've been generally busy, but the events that have really kept me out of the kitchen and away from my blog range from terribly bad (this economy is a mother-effing bitch!), to wonderfully good (woohoooo!). And yes, I'm being very vague on purpose--I'll share more later (maybe).
But I did want to check in and let everyone know that I'll be back to posting recipes regularly, answering comments, and visiting everyone's wonderful blogs very soon--I just have to catch my breath is all. Spring is just around the corner, better days ahead... out like a lamb.
Take it easy and hang in there! Will be here when you get back :)
The economy leaves much to be desired but I can't wait to hear the wonderfully goods news :) Do tell!

I'm looking forward to hearing about your wonderful news, but there's no rush. I know all too well how demanding and challenging the beginning of this year has been! So go ahead and catch your breath. We'll wait. :-)

Man, now I'm dying for a plate of sotanghon after seeing it pop up at the bottom of this post. Hope your great news puts the smackdown on the bad!!!

Whose cat is that may I ask? My cat is a calico too, and has that black smear over the half of her face.

Oh come on Marvin, I wouldn't say meeting me again was, you know, *wonderfully* good. Ha ha ha :) Just kidding! Yay!

Hey Marvin, I've been MIA at my end too. Hope to hear about the wonderful soon!

Bro, we love you and don't you feel pressed to post here. Don't ever let the blog be something that becomes a responsibility instead of a pleasure. Besides, every time I reread an old post I laugh again at your humor! You're the best!

hi marvin
i'd rather wait for you to do a really good post rather than read a crappy rush job post with no substance. love your blog and the fact that you're spreading the word about how great Filipino food really is.
