So I’m ZOMG excited about what will happen when I get home. If it works (and I’m 99.999% it will), I’ll be albe to travel the world, cook new and exciting things, solve curious diseases, fight alongside Heroes and be trapped on an island being lost (on reruns of course)… from the comfort of [...]

Sometimes, when I have a hard day @ work… I make myself a drink… just never this girly. LOL. Here’s what the drink is made up of:
The LauLau
by Herschell Taghap
Ingredients
4 Large White Peaches, sliced and 1/2 peeled (the remaining peel gives it pretty flecks of darker orange)
Ice (12 cubes from this ice tray)
1 [...]

Crispy Chicken Tenders Served with a Red Pepper Sauce

Crispy Chicken Breast Stuffed with Chorizo, Mushrooms and Kale over Red Pepper Sauce
Two dishes, same base ingredients. The appetizer (larger view here) is pretty straight forward, while the main dish (larger view here) may need an explanation. I pounded out some chicken breasts under plastic [...]

Welcome to the stupidity that is the Internets. LOL. Larger view here (alternate here). If you don’t watch LOST, or haven’t seen the this year’s season finale… you wouldn’t understand. It took me forever to pick the right screen shot. Jack looks soooooo sad.
Don’t cry Jack, ME FINDZ THE BUKKIT [...]

Today, my dear friends… is the first day that I have to myself after my parents’ departure back to Chicago. It feels… good. Now that I’ve learned to give in to every single argument that arises… hanging out with the ‘rents is kiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiinda fun. I’m really glad they had a good time [...]

Youtube link here. New video blog post: The movie above contains Sea Lions, fighting, water, baby animals and the Rocky Theme. If you like these things, (not necessarily in that order) then you will like this video. I took it when dragging my parents around the city of San Francisco. [...]

I picked up some fresh tiger shrimp from Bristol Farms yesterday, in hopes that I would make a white bean seafood pasta dish by Ruggero Gadaldi (we even kissed the same girl!). I didn’t think of it before, but I think it’s weird that LauLau and I had brunch @ his latest restaurant: [...]

Hayes Valley, one of my favorite neighborhoods in San Francisco (and home to my favorite burger joint), is having a block party today from noon to 5pm. Damn, I haven’t been to one of those since grammar school @ Mark’s old (new) house. Here’s what the flyer said:
Let’s Go Green…
Free * re-usable cotton [...]

Flickr album - San Francisco: Through My Parents’ Eyes - can be found here. Slideshow here. If you didn’t already know, we flew back in from San Diego on Tuesday and my parents are touristing it up in San Francisco. It’s like I’m seeing the city for the first [...]

After much deliberation, I have decided to purchase a television. Maybe. LOL. I thought I was living just fine without one, but some people think otherwise. I’ll probably go with the 32” Vizio VX32L HDTV (for $599). I’m very partial to “best bang for the buckers“, which is why I [...]

I never really write filler posts, but my parents woke me up @ 7AM and I *just got back* in my own apartment right about NOW (thankfully they decided on a hotel room across the street). I had a lot of fun, but I’m crazy tired. I’M TOO TIRED TO BLOG (well anything [...]

Cheezin’ out in Fisherman’s Wharf. Larger view here. It’s my favvvvvvvoooorrriiiittteeee.
