Welcome to my blog! I hope you enjoy your visit. Here are a few quick links to my most popular content:
It might only be the middle of September, but one of the houses in the neighborhood already put up their Halloween decorations. It feels a bit early, but I still enjoy seeing them out! 🎃👻
Cat toes are so cute, aren’t they? 🐾
Japanese beef curry on rice with a boiled egg is the absolute best! I added a bit of cheese on top (not pictured), and it made it even better. 🍛🥚🧀
Bay and I caught an afternoon showing of Ghost in the Shell at the local theater. I wasn’t sure if I had ever seen it, so watching it on the big screen felt like the best way to check. The movie turned out to be fantastic. I really enjoyed the background art and soundtrack, plus the story and animation were great. As it turns out, it was my first time watching it. Highly recommended for anime fans – it’s a true classic! 📽️✨
Mariko went out for dinner with friends this evening, so I bought In-N-Out for myself and the boys. It was pretty good, but very salty. I had a bunch of fries in the freezer to eat, so I didn’t order any with my burger, but Koa really likes In-N-Out fries so he got some to go with his 3×3 burger. I went with my normal cheeseburger Animal Style light spread, and Bay got his cheeseburger with grilled onions. It was a yummy meal! 🍔🍟
I had instant ramen for dinner tonight. It looked pretty simple at first, but it turned out to have a surprisingly fancy scallop-flavored broth that tasted wonderful. It made for a very nice change of pace from my usual spicy ramyun! 🥢
I went for an MRI today and had to get an IV stuck in me. Afterwards, they wrapped my arm in a bandage that went around several times and felt super tight. A bit excessive? Maybe, but at any rate, it worked and the whole MRI experience – my first one – went just fine! 🩹
