Tuesday, January 15, 2008. She didn't always like us. Bitterness kept her caged for years. When her body began to be ravaged earlier this year, bitterness was what she clung onto. Why me? She would cry, even before when she was well. Why has my life been so unlucky? Why does everything happen to me? In memory of her, our family returned with her ashes to China. And we, of course, ate.

Friday, April 17, 2009. In my daily catch-up-with-the-world hour that I take at work every morning, New York Magazine is the first thing I go to for seeing what's up in New York, after emails and news in three continents.

Seriously, impossible to find. Famous Grimaldi's in Brooklyn.

Stopping at the corner of Faraday Street, I suddenly recalled the new restaurant that Cindy and Michael. As well as Claire. An assortment of cured meats, and I went with the Bresaola. My only complaint about D.O.C was that service seemed a bit...Open ...

Sunday, May 27, 2007. Cooking up a Thai storm. Last Monday was A's birthday, and since he wanted something low key and chill, I decided to cook him up a feast and invite a few friends around instead of taking him out.
