My favorite season

"Stowe, VT"

Autumn is my favorite season of the year. I love the trees changing colors, pumpkin picking, apple cider, trick or treat, and perfect weather!! Me and my friends had a chance to visit Vermont back in October. We really enjoyed fall foliage roads tour in Stowe. It was so pretty and amazing. We spent a day just taking pictures of the orange mountain. Not only you will find a gorgeous leaf but also fabulous food. I have been to 6-7 restaurants in Burlington. I love that the ingredients are so fresh and non-processed. They never make me disappointed. This was a wonderful trip and I'd love to go back there again!

Easy Noodle Soup

My friend Katy came over during Thanksgiving break. We love noodle soup!  This time I made her a chicken stew noodle soup.

 I use 2 cinnamon stick, 3 star anise, 1 celery, half of onion, 3 garlic cloves, soy sauce, dark soy sauce, salt, and pepper. 5Chicken thighs or 3 chicken breasts (cut into cubes) seasoned with salt and pepper then put them in the pot along with the broth. Cook until it's tender on stove or you could use Crock-Pot.

 This soup can go with any type of noodles such as rice noodles, vermicelli, or yellow noodles. Remember to soak noodles in water about 20 minutes before cook in boiling water until soft, but not mushy. Place noodles into each bowl and top with chicken. Ladle boiling broth over the chicken and noodles in the bowl. Add topping with some chinese broccoli, bean sprouts, cilantro and green onions.
