“Family Favorite” Cedar Park, 2020

For dinner, Mariko made our family-favorite karaage. The “JFC” (Japanese fried chicken) was extra-crispy this time because she left some of the skin on the pieces of chicken thigh. It was awesome! As usual, Koa liked his karaage with a bit of lemon, while Bay ate his with some Kewpie mayo. I alternated between both. ☺️

I hope you had a nice day!

Chili Dog Roll-Over

“Chili Dog Roll-Over” Cedar Park, 2020

I made a big batch of chili and we used it for chili dogs. Unfortunately, Koa’s dog experienced a roll-over, which I imagine is not an uncommon occurrence. Still, I had to capture it on “film” for posterity. 😆

I hope you had a good day!

Birthday Dinner at Home

“Birthday Dinner” Cedar Park, 2020

Because we cannot go out to eat, Koa’s birthday dinner was made at home this year. Actually, many of our birthday dinners are homemade because Mariko is an amazing cook, and tonight’s meal was no different. The tortellini she made was all done by hand and tasted great! I think Koa was very happy. 😀 For dessert, we had a homemade cheesecake, and as a nice surprise, Koa’s friend made an apple crumble pie for him. Yay!

I hope you had a good day.
