The other day Mike and I went on a massively long walk. The sun was gorgeously bright, the sky was a brilliant winter blue and the air was crisp but not too cold. It was one of those rambling walks...
I LOVE balls. Especially cute lil sushi balls. These guys can be found in the basement of any major department store in Tokyo and let me tell you, I’ve been eating more than my fair share. I think in...
In the winter time, I’m a huge fan of stew. There’s just something so cozy about starting a stew and letting it braise. It puts me in a good mood every time. I think it has something to do with the fact that...
