Tonight we enjoyed an omakase sushi dinner with friends. The fish was amazingly fresh and flavorful, and the accompanying saké and beer really complemented the food well. Kind of a perfect meal, actually!
Today I rode my Brompton to the library to return “Making a Scene” by Constance Wu. I thought the book was pretty good, but some of the chapters I quickly skimmed over. I wasn’t too interested in the sexy scenes, but I thought the chapters about her family were more interesting, especially about her father. And I like her attitude about cars. Recommended!
Anyways, the ride was really nice, especially because the sky and clouds were so interesting. If you have a moment, please watch the ride video:
Mariko’s friend is staying over for a few nights and tonight she asked if we could have okonomiyaki, which is just fine with me since it is my #1 favorite food. So happy! I ate so much though… but it was just so delicious. Yolo?
As seen on today’s run: pretty red leaves! These ones had managed to grow the the cracks in this wall. Nature is amazing.
Mariko went to a brewery with a friend today and brought back this bottle of Freethinker beer. How did she know I was a freethinker?! 😂
Oh, the beer was delicious!
I’m so happy that our cats Yuzu and Anko get along so well. Sure, they sometimes hiss at each other, but when I see them snugging like this, it just warms my heart!
We made two pizzas tonight – a sardine, olive, onion, and Thai chili pepper pizza, and a pepperoni, olive, onion, and jalapeño pizza. Both were excellent, but I think tonight I preferred the sardine pizza. The fish and cheese were the perfect combination!
