My wanderings around my world this week started with…

Refrigerator tetris.

A packed refrigerator

Lunch with a good friend.

Bánh bột lọc for breakfast.

Everything… is beautiful… at the ballet!

Love this idea. Who would your alter ego be?

Weekly Wanderings {2017, week 10}

My wanderings around my world this week started with…

Stuffed peppers.

(Me from a decade ago is wondering what the **** is wrong with me, to be voluntarily eating bell peppers?!)

(Me right now asserts that these are actually ridiculously delicious, and yes I’m questioning my sanity too.)

Our koi pond.

The little monsters are getting huge!

We’re mostly just amazed they’ve survived this long.

Friendship rose.

Yellow rose

Current dinner: green curry with sweet potatoes and green beans, miso salmon, and brown rice.

Made a ginormous batch of all three last weekend, and we’ve eaten it every night since (and haven’t gotten sick of it yet!)

Adore this article about a great friendship that crosses generations.

Weekly Wanderings {2017, week 9}

My wanderings around my world this week started with…

Sleeping for 11 hours straight, then laying in bed listening to the rain.

Curtains

The quiet before classes begin.

Aerial silks

Dinner with a good friend that I see far too infrequently.

Working on logic puzzles while listening to Son have an existential crisis about his code (and trying not to laugh too hard at him).

Weekly Wanderings {2017, week 8}

My wanderings around my world this week started with…

Pie-making.

Beef and Guinness pie

Thai food.

Prik king

A couple favorites that we get every time.

Green curry with salmon

And a new-to-us dish – a delicious Thai version of the Vietnamese hu tieu that we adore.

This was really good.

Freezing my shoulder off at physical therapy.

At physical therapy

Bought a screen for our bathroom window. Screen turned out to be just barely too large. After much screen manipulation and jamming, somehow managed to actually get the screen in without breaking it!

No, we do not live in a forest, it just looks that way.

Salmon sashimi.

Separating eggs.

Weekly Wanderings {2017, week 7}

My wanderings around my world this week started with…

Eating waffles and talking tech with fellow nerdgals at a Girl Develop It meetup.

An awesome start to the week.

Bacon and blue cheese waffle

… and then I went home and reheated waffles from our freezer, then topped them with fried eggs and bacon. Because Son wanted waffles too. 😅

Waffle with frico egg and bacon

Got The Pho Cookbook last week, so this week it’s time to make some pho!

Pho in the pressure cooker

Went for a walk on Valentine’s Day. Tried to take a photo of some pretty flowers. Instead got Son photobombing my photo. 😏

… got the photo of the flowers anyways.

Blossoms

Our aloe plant has gotten to be quite plump!

Pho success!

Sprouted palm tree seeds look like little pink bugs.

Itty bitty garden at the base of the palms.

Deceptively calm rain on leaves.

Meanwhile, I nearly got blown away (and definitely got soaked) on my walk home.

Rainy leaves

Current dinner: spinach + chickpeas + eggs, and then add radish kimchi. Super easy, oh so healthy, and really really tasty.
