my external edible hard drive: adventures in cooking! ^ ^

memory bank

Hello Blog... i celebrate your wonderful creation.. and I.. your creator will fill u full of my daily life, misfortune, and adventure.... probably all food related... Mostly i will just put lots of useful information that i think ill need later... such as a new recipe i try.. and whether i failed.. whether it was good or awful.. and what to fix for next time.. and maybe perhaps reviews on restaurants i go to.. so that i may look back on you to see if i liked it or not.. and also a collection of wine reviews.. bcus i know i never remember those by the second bottle.. hehe... Basically blog... u will become that part of my brain that is supposed to remember these types of things and yet always seems to forget... Dont feel intimidated... ill take it slow and i promise to be gentle oh little blog.. well take it one step at a time.. and eventually my cute little blog.. you will blossom into the big beautiful blog/database that i know u can become... がんばります！！～

adventures in cooking! ^ ^

i was craving chinese but didnt wanna go out so i whipped up my own chinese feast...

first... garlic ginger glazed pork... the glaze came out really well and coated the pork perfectly....

and a side of spicy stir fried japanese eggplant with small button mushrooms... soooo good~ ^ ^

found a huge bag of rice noodles and decided to make a cold noodle dish for jenny and josh's labor day bbq... i mixed tamarind liquid with mirin, soy sauce and worcestershire... tossed with stir fried carrots and onions and mixed with green onion... and surrouned the bowl with sliced cucumber and tomatoes...
