daily slice-of-life photo blog of a Gen-X dad
A couple of months ago I posted about Bay’s last piano recital, and now we’re nearing the end of is regular piano lessons. He’ll be going away to college soon, so tonight was his second-to-last lesson. It’s been a part of our weekly schedule for several years now, so we’ll miss it a bit. 😢
I hope Bay picks up piano again in his future! 🎹

It’s triple digits in Texas and the air-conditioning in the Prius, which has been weak since last year, just isn’t keeping up! I took it to the shop today and they recharged it with refrigerant, and it’s nice and cold now. However, there’s a leak in one of the parts which would be very expensive to replace, so we’re just going to see how long the refrigerant lasts. I hope we make it through the summer at least. 😱
FYI, the photo above shows 109°F, but I had just gotten into the car which was sitting out in the sun. The actual temperature was a chilly 103°F.
Stay cool, everyone!

Black and white rum? No, the rum is a golden amber, but the photo is black and white. 😄 Cheers!
It’s been maybe half a year since we’ve had dim sum, so I was excited to feast at New Fortune with good friends. We had most of the usual types, but what made today’s meal special is that I tried tripe, which may have been my first time. It actually was pretty good! But honestly, with so many other options available, I don’t think I will have it again, or at least order it on my own.
I like New Fortune not only because the food is delicious, but it also reminds me of the Chinese restaurants I used to eat at in Monterey Park. The restaurant is basically one huge room which can also be used for banquets or wedding receptions. It’s so typically Chinese, I love it!
I hope you had a great day!
またね～
