こんばんは。Today is Easter Sunday 🐰, and this is maybe the first time we didn’t do any kind of traditional Easter activities. The past couple years, we have just given the kids chocolate bunnies and Easter baskets, but this year we didn’t really think about it at all. As a non-religious family, the holiday doesn’t have any meaning to us in the traditional sense, but we did have some friends over to enjoy good food and conversation. 😄
Of course, I ate too much… but it was so delicious, I couldn’t help myself. Fun times!

こんばんは。How’s it going? Here in Austin, we’ve been having some heavy storms. It’s good for our yard, but there is the possibility of flooding in other parts of the area. Everyone be safe!
Today’s photo is of a yummy, garlicky shrimp dish that we enjoyed for dinner. As you can see, we disturbed our napping kitty in order to take the photo. But food photos with pets are really the best anyways. 🐱🍤

こんばんは。How was your Tuesday?
Today is my younger son’s 13th birthday… yes, he’s a teenager! And now both my kids are in their teens. I can’t believe time flies so quickly. 😱
Koa has requested the same birthday dinner this year: karaage (Japanese style fried chicken). As you can see in the photo, the chicken was piled high! In fact, I knew there would be a mountain of karaage again so I got out my ultra-wide-angle lens for my dslr to give it even more emphasis. It was so delicious, that I am thinking that I might want karaage for my birthday dinner as well. 😄
Seems like these days I’ve been posting about food A LOT. Well, yes. I guess it’s fun to take photos of the yummy food that Mariko prepares, and then I need to share that of course. 😘
In other news, I’ve been enjoying the book “The School for Good and Evil”. It’s fun and funny! But, I have a reading problem in that I find so many books I want to read, but cannot read fast enough to get to all of them. And the sales that Amazon has on their kindle books doesn’t help either. My library of unread books keeps growing and I may never be able to catch up. 📚 Oh well. しょうがない

こんばんは。
What a beautiful day it was here in Austin today. I took advantage of the sun and took a nice walk at lunchtime, burned some calories, got some fresh air, and caught a few Pokemon. 😄 It was nice to recharge a bit before going back to work, which is super busy! But it’s a good type of busy… I can’t really complain.
Ok, on to the pizza part of this post. 🍕 Tonight we made a couple of homemade pizza pies, using dough that has been resting for a few days. A good dough is really important and can make or break a pizza… tonight’s was some of the best dough I’ve had in a long time! It was a little crispy and firm, but also moist, chewy and flavorful. It also had a few air pockets which I think is the mark of a great dough!
For toppings, we used a homemade tomato sauce, then the kids had Italian sausage, and two kinds of cheese (Mozzarella and another that I can’t remember), plus black pepper, oregano, and basil. Mariko and my pizza had Italian sausage, red onion, black olives, mushrooms, sun-dried tomato, jalapeno, and the same cheeses as the kids’ pizza.
Needless to say, there were no leftovers!
