A Gingery Pork Belly and a Book Me-Me

Sunday, August 24th, 2008

Sra tagged me for a book me-me a while ago. The rules for this me-me are-Pick up the nearest book-Open to page 123-Find the 5th sentence-Post the next three sentences-Tag 5 people and acknowledge the person who tagged you.
At the time I read Sra’s post, I had five books next to me- two were geek stuff, one poker book and two others which I could actually use, but both turned out to have the shortest sentences one could write in […]

It took us about three weekends of R&R to get back into schedule after the India vacation. We were just cruising through the daily grind, not cooking much or even going out much, mainly doing take-outs and quick fix meals. Siv getting sick in the middle really delayed the transition process. But finally we are back into action, went out both Thursday and Friday night, for happy hour and gourmet food which I’ve been missing so badly!

This is not a food related post. Yes, I know I made this big announcement some time ago about starting another blog for non-food posts, but who was I kidding? I am so lazy, it is a miracle that I am somewhat regular in maintaining this one blog, I might have been delusional to think I could actually handle two. So, you just have to learn to ignore my occasional rants here, if you are here just for the food.
Now, […]

My blogger buddy Cynthia (who coincidentally celebrated her birthday yesterday. Happy Birthday Cyn… ) tagged me for a meme to write seven random facts about me. So here you go…

As a kid, I used to be (still am to a certain extent) a big germaphobe and would refuse to drink/eat anything from restaurants. That lasted till I went to college, hostel food made me a convert. Yeah, and now I live on restaurant food.
I was as thin as a person […]

Yum Yum Sup Sup - Seattle Fave Five

Amy of Nook and Pantry, fellow Seattle food blogger tagged me to write about my five favorite restaurants in Seattle. It sounds easy, but I live in a city which is truly a foodie heaven, how do I pick just five? I have way too many favorites. So after pondering this over for about a month, I decided that it is best to pick my favorite restaurants in five different categories, instead of picking my five absolute favorite restaurants, which might all fall in the […]
