Halloween is just around the corner and we get a lot of trick or treaters! With Candy prices being so high, I want to stock up on some non-candy options. @samsclub has a good variety!

We also got some breakfast options to have on hand: Oats, honey Greek yogurt, bacon, and cold brew.

My kids also asked for the Nutella sticks for a treat and we sampled these Kize energy bars and they were so good!

Every time we go visit my mom, my kids request these ribs. The marinade is pretty simple to make and the long baking time creates a nice Golden crust with a tender juicy rib. My kids eat these with Thai sticky rice but I love to have it with Som Tum or Thai cucumber salad.

3 pounds Spare Ribs or baby back ribs
▢5 Garlic Cloves add more if you like garlic flavor
▢½ cup Cilantro stems and leaves packed
▢½ teaspoon Ground Black Pepper
▢2 tablespoon Oyster Sauce
▢1 tablespoon Golden Mountain Soy Sauce
▢1 tablespoon Low sodium soy sauce

Bake the ribs at 350° for an hour and a half. Rotating them halfway through.

My kids love eating Sticky rice, but I used to never want to make it because it was such a process. Now that I perfected my Skillet and steamer method, I make it all the time!

Some important notes:

Use the correct rice, it needs to be glutinous or sweet rice.
Soak the rice in room temp water for 4 hours or boiling water for 20 minutes.
You want the cooked sticky rice to be soft and slightly sticky but not hard.
Store cooked sticky rice in a sealed container or bamboo container to keep it warm and prevent it from drying out.

Save these easy and fun Cinnamon sugar jack o lanterns 🎃

All you need to do is cut out a pumpkin face on a flour tortilla, I like using the street taco size to make them smaller. Then brush both sides with melted butter and bake them until crispy. Add more butter at the end and sprinkle some cinnamon sugar 🖤🧡

I made Som Tum Thang (Thai cucumber salad) and it totally satisfied my craving for papaya salad. I used a mandolin with a shredder attachment to shred an English cucumber just until I got to the area where the seats were. Then I made my dressing by pounding together garlic, Thai, chilies, sugar, fish sauce and lime juice, and dried shrimp.

I served it with some Thai sticky rice and such a light and satisfying meal.
