Bake 3 new kinds of cookies (#34)
Posted on July 17, 2012 by KK in 100 things, food, lists.I know how disappointed you are that you came to the blog and there is not part 4 of the 2-months-late-new-orleans-photo-essay. This is mostly because I have no more photos. For Valentines Day this year, Dan bought me a new computer (awwwwwww). Then last week in the middle of looking up a recipe online, I […]

Chapter Two: Jazzfest
Posted on July 2, 2012 by KK in 100 things, food, friends, travel.Jazz Fest, Day One! Do not mind the ominous rain clouds. It never rained, and it was never unspeakably hot because it wasn’t sunny either. Best weather we had. If only we had known what was to come… Schedule for Thursday. There was A LOT going on. Crowds on Day One (Thursday). Notice how you […]

In the meantime
Posted on June 11, 2012 by KK in food, growing up, kitties.So yes, Dan and I have moved. We are at the same university, and I am in the same job. I am now working in a different residential unit. As my job is a ‘live-in’ position, working in a different unit requires moving as well. We are just under two weeks of living in our […]

Gone Shopping
Posted on March 28, 2012 by Dan in Berkeley, family, food.Back in November, we showed you a bit of our day to day life. I was planning to just update with a relevant photo, but then I realized this how reflective it was of our life week to week. I hardly think of our life and work as anything but routine. However, recently we’ve intentionally […]

Bake 5 new kinds of cupcakes (#40)
Posted on October 25, 2011 by KK in 100 things, food.I mentioned a couple of posts ago that I made some cupcakes 2 weekends ago, which I realized later was the 4th new kind of cupcake I had made. So, this past weekend had to include cupcakes so I could finish up this goal. Clearly. That makes sense to you, right? Of course it does, […]

Domestic-ness
Posted on October 17, 2011 by KK in food, random.Today was a super productive day. Feeling really good about it. I’ve been in PJs and sweats…all day. We did not leave the house. We cleaned, did laundry, organized, folded laundry, unpacked (since we got home last Tuesday) and other random house type chores, which I normally dread, but today made me feel incredibly accomplished. […]

Readjusting
Posted on April 8, 2011 by KK in family, food, friends, travel.Since I last wrote, we’ve been to the East Coast and back. Some travel commentary: Our flight from San Francisco to Dulles took FOUR HOURS. I am not making this up. They told us it would take 4.5, which seemed ludicrously short even then, but it took just a couple of minutes over four. Doesn’t […]

Go berry picking (#11)
Posted on May 28, 2010 by Dan in 100 things, food.Everytime we go pick up our CSA box, we get a newsletter along with it. It tells us what is in our box for that week, what the vegetables are, how to store them, and some recipes for how to use them (which has been handy). The second time we picked up our load of […]

Transition from plastic to other materials in the kitchen (#34)
Posted on May 22, 2010 by Dan in 100 things, food.We have been making a big effort to transition our entire kitchen from plastic to mostly stainless steel and glass. It took awhile to complete it because every time I thought we were done, we noticed something else was plastic. First we replaced all our mixing bowls and storage containers with Pyrex bowls and food […]

The purée button is my favorite
Posted on May 20, 2010 by Dan in food.In the last year, I’ve learned how much I melt over a well crafted soup. There’s soup and then there’s soup! I can strangely relate to the passion the Soup Nazi put into his creations on Seinfeld. I can distinctly recall some of the most flavorful and perfectly concocted soups I’ve had recently (and for […]
