こんばんは。How’s it going?

Today we made a couple updates to our pet life. First, I bought three green tiger barbs and two albino tiger barbs to add to our three regular tiger barbs. With these aggressive fish, you need to keep at least five or so since one of the fish will become a bully and chase the others. If there are only a couple fish, the ones being chased get too tired, so it’s best spread out the chasing amongst several fish. Anyway, the green and albino barbs look really pretty, and I think everyone is getting along much better! 😀

The next update was that we bought a large cat tree for our kitties! It’s pretty great and the cats love it. We’re happy that Anko, who is the less-athletic of the two is comfortable climbing up to the top perch. They seem to enjoy it!

So, I bought a couple more fountain pens – the Jinhao 993 Shark in green and blue! Aren’t they cool? I’m going to use them at work, with Iroshizuku Ama-iro and Chiku-rin inks. I love them! What is nice about these pens is that not only are they dirt cheap, but they come with converters which makes refilling with ink super easy.

Highly recommended as a fun, beginner fountain pen. Enjoy!

So many food photos, I know, but hey, we eat every day so it’s a huge part of our lives. 😊 Tonight’s dinner was a Vietnamese-style grilled chicken, with marinated carrot and daikon, greens, and rice.

We’ve been using a Char-Broil TRU Infrared grill for a couple years now, and it’s been pretty good. It heats up quickly and we can be cooking in a couple minutes which is super-convenient. So for tonight’s chicken, we got to enjoy that wonderful grilled, smoky flavor without the wait. This grill is highly recommended for a small family.

I hope you had a nice day!
