i have decided to start taking photos of the food i make. the other night, i made some steaming bowls of udon w/shrimp, spinach & scallions for me + y. to eat while watching gossip girl - another night, i made a greek salad w/sauteed chicken breast - unfortunately, no photos, but i'm sure i'll be making these dishes again very soon. the first photos i have are of the kimchi fried rice i made for dinner tonight. i followed lucee's co-blogger's recipe - besides kimchi, it includes tuna, scallions & spinach, & it's topped with a slightly runny fried egg. lovely.
i am back at school now, and my roommates had some sweet birthday gifts waiting for me:
y/i. brought me sparkly nail decals from japan
and h. knit me arm warmers using yarn from mexico!in other news, i am taking this amazing class, Special Topics in Journalism: Writing About the World of Food. it must be the most fun thing i've taken in college! it's taught by a food critic, the restaurants writer over here. the class will include - food books, chef profiles, restaurant reviews, anthony bourdain, alice waters, ruth reichl, recipe-writing, food fiction, nutritional issues, genetically modified foods, wine tasting, farmers/growers, the galloping gourmet, nutrition labels, obscure food vocabulary, etc! our first class was yesterday - we tasted 3 types of cheese & our assignment is to write about the experience! i will share highlights from the class as the semester progresses :)
