fruity
I bought so much fruit today, we’re going to be shitting fruit rollups.

yoshi
Jeremy and I tried lunch today at a sushi joint my friend recommended, Sushi Yoshi. Not bad, not spectacular. Two things I miss about So Cal: the groceries (TJs, farmers markets, ethnic grocers) and sushi.

kitchen tutorial: chicken coconut soup (thom kha kai)
Another favorite Thai recipe from last night is Thom Kha Kai. I usually make this with shitake mushrooms, but had the notion to grab a can of straw mushrooms at the Asian market to use instead.


you’ll need mushrooms, chicken broth, sliced ginger (or galangal), sliced lemon grass, fish sauce, lemon juice, chicken, coconut milk, tamarind concentrate, and chili garlic paste

heat the broth, juice, fish sauce, ginger, and lemon grass in a pot until boiling
add sliced chicken
