Bring it on!

You may have gone too far one night when a member of your party says "Come on, man, don't fuck with the cop's horse."

Does this cocaine smell funny?

Here comes the fun cooker!

But wait... there's more! Mila soup dumplings with all the sauces. (They're really delicious... pick up a bag.) Perfectly fried sunny side up eggs with pastrami-style salmon. An Italian omelette with sweet peppers, ham, and cherry tomatoes. And an omelette filled with piperade plus bacon.

This week was an excellent string of dinners. Wok-cooked Mongolian beef with sticky rice. Smashed kebab with cucumber yogurt. Oven-steamed arctic char with pirerade and baked asparagus. And lightly fried tofu and broccoli with lemon-miso sauce over udon noodles. Delicious!

Seen at a local spot. I wish more people followed these guidelines.

She's mashing it.

Koa is filled under "Brian Science" and "Cosmology".

To all the great ones... Happy Father's Day.

Plus, a pastrami-style salmon, egg, and cheese English muffin. An Italian omelette with spinach, mozzarella, cherry tomatoes, prosciutto, avocado, and basil. Sunny side up eggs, salmon, and avocado plus Italian toast. A chicken katsu sammich on skoupan with veggies and a Kewpie-Tonkatsu sauce.

Some nice summer weather meant outdoor dining. A baked chicken caprese salad. Baked Ora King salmon in a honey, Kewpie, dill mixture with jasmine rice. A roasted yellow bell pepper soup with Tuscan toast with Parmesan and prosciutto. And finally a Denver steak with lemon-dill potatoes.

My three season room is cooler than your three season room.

Sometimes you need to SWOT...

Land must be flatter.

Sadly, most humans don't understand the sarcasm here.

A photo album of real life places that accidentally seem to come from a Wes Anderson film. Yes, please.

Plus a great dinner at "Golden Gai" including Korean pork buns and a great run of nigiri and rolls.

Or breakfast! Two fried eggs over a lentil and black bean mash. Or a mushroom, tomato, and jalapeño omelette with sides of ham slices. Or some variations on avocado toast including options like eggs, seaweed, tomatoes, cucumbers, black sesame oil, truffle oil.

I also received an order of Shokupan or Japanese Milk Bread. Here's a concoction of roasted asparagus, tofu, over toasted Shokupan. Or a ham, egg, and cheese Shokupan breakfast sammich. Or a classic Japanese 7-Eleven egg salad sammich!

So much amazing food this week. Lots of outdoor dining such as bison burgers and dogs. A grilled chicken spring salad. My first attempt with a wok for chicken, veggies, and noodles. And a slow roasted halibut over a cannellini bean stew.

Remember this profile in courage? Mark Meadows was chief of staff in the back nine of Trump's first term. In 2023, Mark's lawyer said...

"Mr. Meadows has maintained a commitment to tell the truth where he has a legal obligation to do so.”

When you decide to be led by someone, you will inevitably begin to act like them.

The primary bathroom remodel is nearly complete and it's looking pretty goddamn amazing. Spa life has improved 38%.
