Winter Cold Killer Recipe: Chicken Lime Tortilla Soup
Date: December 29, 2013
This past week I was feeling like I was going to die of cold… I’m in the Bay Area… don’t judge me, some places lack proper insulation, and we have crazy fog and, and…. fine, it’s not that cold here relatively speaking. Much in the same vein that Boston is not that cold if compared … Read More
Project 12: Month 10: Chicken and Beet Risotto
Date: May 11, 2013
So this dish follow on from the previous one on Cabbage Rolls I actually did these on the same day — I was trying to figure out what to do with the leftover water? After boiling the cabbage, it was such a great color, I figured there had to be a way to use … Read More

Project 12: Month 11: Cabbage Rolls w/ Jalapenos and Beans
Date: January 11, 2012
This month — yet another favorite but with a twist… cabbage rolls but with beans 🙂 — I’m sure everyone is excited about that! For the past couple months, I’ve been upping my fibre (fiber?) intake and lowering my sugar intake, and I’m a fan of refried beans, so figured this would be a good experiment … Read More

I’m finally getting around to posting some of the previous month meals. This one is for August. It was pretty easy in terms of choosing ‘what’ to make – nothing in the fridge, so had a complete clean slate to work with. Setting the scene: The day was boiling hot, and I had spent the … Read More
9/11 – My recollection of New York City
Date: September 10, 2011
I sometimes look back at 9/11 and wonder if my memory of it has altered and if the reality was different than I recall. It was such a long time ago – I had wrote about it on my laptop at the time, but unfortunately lost it before backing it up and never ended … Read More

Hanging in the Rift
Date: March 29, 2007
So I finally got a chance to go out to the Rift valley this weekend – although it wasn’t really intentional. We were supposed to be on a flight to Harar (a walled Muslim city from the at least the 12th century), but Ethiopian Airlines gave us the wrong time… they gave me an itinerary … Read More
Lalibela
Date: March 9, 2007
Categories: Ethiopia, Photography
Everything in Ethiopia is sold as ‘Ethiopia’s version’ of something else. Lalibela is Ethipia’s Petra and if the Statue of Liberty, the Eiffel Tower, and the Sydney Opera Centre (?? really??) can be in the running for the Seven Wonders of the World, Lalibela should definitely be in there too. I’ve never been to Petra, so … Read More
