This summer/spring/whatev three new frozen yogurt places opened in Berkeley. Which was a disaster, a pretty awesome disaster, but a disaster, cos there were weeks when I had a frozen yogurt every. single. day. I know, I know, Yogurt Park has been in Berkeley forever, but the thing is, Yogurt Park serves the [...]
This morning I woke up and I just kinda felt like azuki ice cream, so I had a big ol’ bowl for breakfast. Then for lunch I had a large smoothie. I have no idea why, but that’s what I felt like. It’s not even particularly hot today; it’s actually a really [...]
Happy New Year! Usually today, I try to eat oranges (sounds like luck I think?), fish (sounds like surplus or plenty), noodles (long for longevity), pot stickers or dumplings (shaped like old fashioned money ingots) or some combination thereof. This year, I have class tonight, so it’s a good thing we have some [...]
Ever since misa lent us Cooking Mama: Cook Off for the Wii, Yut and I haven’t been able to cook without saying, “just like mama!” every time we do something right and “good not mine!” every time we drop something. Except we don’t really do her accent right; I dunno what that accent is, [...]
Today the weather was really nice, 60s! Perfect for ice cream!
Actually I’m a total liar, we got that carton like a week ago, when the weather was bad. Maeda-en is my fave brand of azuki ice cream (to date, I’m willing to try others!) and it’s quite quite delicious. I know it [...]
Boy oh boy, Thanksgiving is next week and I am having thoughts of turkeys dancing in my head! Delicious, delicious turkey! I can’t wait. :)
YB asked me for turkey cooking tips yesterday, which yay! Someone asking me for cooking advice! Haha:) Anyhows, I thought I’d make a post out of it. [...]
It looks unprepossessing enough — just like any other crème brûlée: available everywhere, delicious when done right, sometimes disappointing. But this one has the delicious flavor of sweet, sweet corn, and it’s amazing. I wish photos could be scratch and sniff. Or better yet lickable. I don’t know why no one’s [...]
We bought 2 ears of organic corn at the farmer’s market. One of them was beautiful, but the other had a worm on it! A black worm maybe half an inch long on the tip area. OMG I was so groadied out! Yut had to go put the ear of corn [...]
The girl in front of me in line ordered an egg salad sandwich on toast. Her friend decided that it sounded good and said, “I’ll have what she’s having.” They paid together, then, on their way out, I heard, “How are we going to tell which one is which?”
Also, pumpkin spice lattes are [...]
First I ate dinner, a lot of it. Then we washed up a bunch of cherries and decided to try to catch up on Lost. But doooooood, I ate waaaaaay too many cherries. And now my stomach hurts so bad, and I couldn’t concentrate on Lost, and gawd, I’m a moron.
