When we moved out to the suburbs of Atlanta over two years ago, my mind went into cultural shock from being one of the very few couples in our neighborhood without children to having a 40 minute drive get to midtown Atlanta. Luckily (or not) I happened to work from home and a daily commute [...]

I started this blog almost two years ago as a not only a way to archive my family’s recipes, but to also explore eating health benefits of Asian cuisine and staying fit and healthy. I have always prided myself on being more on the athletic side, from cross country in middle school to varsity tennis [...]

We have had a great basil explosion in our little backyard garden. Basil has been one of my favorite things to grow in our garden, partly because it’s so easy to grow and partly because I love the smell of freshly chopped basil. Now that we have so.. much.. basil, the question is: What to [...]

Today I found out that our little puppy loves watermelon. The watermelon plants that we planted in our garden have been growing lots and lots of watermelons this summer. We have lost a few watermelons to some sort of little creature that has been taking huge bites out of the watermelons, but we have managed [...]

We’ve been cooking with our home-grown herbs, basil and parsley, for a couple weeks now.  We have been anxiously awaiting the arrival of our vegetables.   I am so ready to be able to walk outside and pick out fresh veggies for lunch and dinner.

Cucumber Staking

June 1, 2010

The cucumbers in our garden were starting to take over more space than we anticipated (yup, we’re garden newbies) – covering up the basil and practically suffocating our eggplant. So, after a bit of online research… turns out that you’re supposed to stake the cucumbers in smaller garden areas – Ha! After a quick trip [...]

May 9, 2010

I seemed to have missed a few days in posting about my 14 day pescetarian diet venture. But never fear, I haven’t caved yet! Actually, I’m feeling pretty good. It’s only been a week, but I actually feel healthier. When I attempted the vegetarian diet back in my high school days through my second year [...]

Day 2: Going Strong

May 5, 2010

Day two of my fourteen pescetarian diet and still going strong! Lunch was at Lobster House near Northpoint Mall in Alpharetta, GA.  This place has a huge sushi bar – quality, eh – it’s not the highest quality, but you can eat as much as you want.  So, maybe it evens out. We’ve been to [...]
