A big pot of Cioppino filled the house with an amazing aroma this afternoon. Mariko had a few friends over for dinner, and the cioppino was the main dish, with salads and focaccia accompanying it. In addition, she made a beautiful cheese board. So cool! I’m always so grateful to be able to enjoy food like this at home. ☺️

Mariko had some friends over for dinner, which means delicious food is guaranteed to be served! Unfortunately, I had to work well into the evening so I couldn’t partake, but the next day I had leftover cioppino. It was so yummy! I ate way too much, but I couldn’t help myself. The mussels, clams, prawns, and other seafood delights were perfect with Mariko’s homemade bread… this really is the good life. 😆

By the way, did you know that cioppino is an Italian-American creation that originated in San Francisco? This was news to me. Thank you, Wikipedia!

こんばんは。Here are some photos of tonight’s dinner: cioppino and focaccia. My wife had a couple friends over for “Girls’ Night” which means there’s guaranteed to be yummy food. And the cioppino was amazing! Mussels, clams, shrimp, crab, and fish in a warm broth, and homemade focaccia bread for dipping. I had three bowls of cioppino!
