I made the French dish ratatouille as my contribution to the potluck tomorrow. I got it from the Nintendo DS “game” I bought a while back. Cooking from the DS is actually a lot easier to do than looking at a book. I just have to hit next or say, ...

Some places I haven’t been to (at least as an adult):
Queen Mary
Angels Walk

Olvera Street
Original Farmers Market (I think I might have been there when ...

I made sukiyaki for dinner tonight. It came out good, although far from perfect. I got a bit lazy when it came to reading the instructions... Oops.
Once again, I took tonight’s dinner from November 2008 of Kyou no Ryouri. Yellowtail and scallops something... Well, that’s not what it says ...

Today is my birthday. There were a lot of things I could have done today. Most of which I didn’t do. I didn’t go to Disneyland. I didn’t go out drinking. I didn’t go have a special birthday lunch, nor a dinner. No, today, I went to work, and I ...

I finally tasted the umeshu that I made back in May 2008. The ume flavor is wonderful. Unfortunately, it’s too sweet! >.<; It might be good if I use as a mixer. Sprite and plum wine, anyone?
I should think of other concoctions I can make with it. Oooh, if ...
