Back in Waltham

Finally got back to Waltham after 24 hours of traveling. Still have a lot to unpack and clean up, but glad to be off the plane and no longer need to deal with screaming babies and long layovers. Today is the first day of classes and surprisingly my jetlag is actually not too bad. Woke up a little bit earlier than I would usually prefer but it was actually quite nice to be able to enjoy breakfast and take my time in selecting outfits. Last night I made a honey and vinegar spareribs dish that my mom makes. It is one of my favorite foods and I wasn't able to reach my mom so I tried my best with what I remember when I watch her cook it. It turned out really well and although my mom's is obviously still better, I was very pleased with my result :)

Honey and Vinegar Spareribs
1 lb spareribs chopped into little chunks
2-3 tablespoons vinegar
2 tablespoons honey
1 tablespoon dark soy sauce
Salt
Water

1. Add the spareribs into a pot of boiling water and cook for a
bout 5 minutes. Drain.


2. Heat up oil in a pan and add the spareribs. Cook until meat turns slightly brown.
3. Mix honey, dark soy sauce, and vinegar in a bowl and add to the meat.



4. Mix and add around 5 tablespoons of water. More water will be added as the meat slowly cooks.
5. Cover with pan and cook for approx. 20-30 mins on low heat.
6. Add more vinegar, honey, or soy sauce depending on personal preference.
