Toron- P365 # 131

Toron or deep fried banana rolls is one of the popular snacks in the place where I grew up in.  It is good  when you wrap it with a langka filling in it.  My mother used to made this for us when  were growing up.  Hubby and  Ms. Burrito likes to eat it so whenever I see some plantain in the store and I have a lumpia wrapper and canned jack fruit in  my cabinet, I always buy some to make toron.  The plantain is not as good as the saba  but it's good enough or should I say it's better than nothing lol.

Anyhow, I made this  today after we came back from Pittsburgh.

• Today is Friday the 13th and I was always told by  old people that it is  not a good day.  So far, it is  becoming a  good day since Blogger is now available.  I was getting worried  since yesterday because I couldn't do anything and  although it was available for reading but some of the posts and comments were temporarily removed by Blogger.  Some of my posts and comments  are still missing but I am hoping that they will republish it soon.  Thanks to the team from Blogger who are working hard to  fix the problem.
• A friend is changing the layout of one of   Mr. K's blog and she presented me some banners that I like.  She already installed it actually.
  
• We  went to  Giant Eagle this morning to drop off the two balikbayan boxes that we  are sending to my family back home.
• After the drop off, we decided to cruise down Pittsburgh to get some asian goodies.  I am glad we went because  there are plenty stocks of tinapa there.
• I made some toron when we came back.
• Now hubby and kids are at my FIL while I stayed trying to update  some posts.

Thank you all so much for  your visits and thoughts!
