Grandma Ruby’s Yakisoba
I made my Grandma Ruby's yakisoba recipe tonight, with a couple of changes that made it even better. I think she’d be proud of me.

This week’s dinners
Here are a couple of meals I have made in the past week. These were all made from scratch and delicious and I want to remember them.
H Mart is my happy place
I spent the afternoon wandering around H Mart. It is my happy place. I picked up some longanisa, Filipino sausages that we’ll eat for dinner Saturday night.
Homemade salted caramels
I make REALLY GOOD homemade salted caramels. I made a batch for my Seattle family and friends a couple of weeks ago, and now I’m sharing the recipe!
I love you, I feed you
For me, feeding people is an act of love. It's a way to show I care. If I have ever cooked for you, or cooked with you, this is for you.
I made some cow!
This was last night’s dinner during the “thundersleet” outside: short ribs, green beans, red wine mushrooms, and financiers with raspberries and caramel sauce.
My weekend in Seattle
At the end of my 3 weeks in Sequim, I did something that feels selfish yet necessary: I took 2 full days completely for myself in Seattle.
Apples and birthdays
Today is my mom’s birthday. 80 trips around the sun. She doesn’t feel like celebrating, and I understand.
Cooking is an anxiety release
We are visiting my mom and dad for the holidays. Dad’s Parkinson’s and Alzheimer’s have worsened to an alarming degree since August. I’m trying to take as many photos as I can while I still can.
Food I made in December
I posted a bunch of food related stuff to Facebook in December, so I’m saving it all here as a roundup-style post. French food, cookies, bacon, tacos… and more.
