“Plate of Many Things” Cedar Park, 2025
So much variety on the plate!

Today, I got a haircut and noticed a line forming outside a new hotpot restaurant. Coincidentally, Mariko prepared a delicious hotpot dinner at home tonight! The chicken meatballs, tofu, and veggies made for a hearty and healthy meal. Soon, though, Mariko and I will try out the new restaurant and see how it is.

It seems like my first blog post every year is always about Mariko’s delicious osechi. This year’s was no exception! She switched things up by using pork instead of the usual beef, and I have to say — I loved it even more!
