Smoked Salmon Avocado Toast. 🥑🍞 When we picked avo Smoked Salmon Avocado Toast. 🥑🍞 When we picked avocados straight from my mother-in-law’s tree and my brother-in-law showed up with a homemade sourdough loaf, avocado toast was the only answer. 

This toast features perfectly charred sourdough piled high with creamy avocado, savory smoked salmon, & a drizzle of aromatic lemon olive oil that ties every bite together. For an extra special touch, add a poached egg & some micro arugula!

Anyone else remember Curry House in LA? I’m still Anyone else remember Curry House in LA? I’m still sad it closed during the COVID era. It used to be one of my favorite comfort food spots. This Ground Chicken and Tofu Curry is my take on their version. I used to order it all the time. It’s comforting without feeling too heavy, w/ savory ground chicken, silky tofu, & rich Japanese curry. My favorite part is the garlic spinach rice. It adds so much flavor & really brings the whole dish together. If you’re looking for a satisfying weeknight meal, definitely give this one a try! 🍛

Visited Oahu in late February. Hawaii is always be Visited Oahu in late February. Hawaii is always beautiful, especially the mountains and beaches. We even saw rainbows 3 times. We love the laid-back island vibe, and the locals are incredibly friendly. During our trip we went on an early morning hike, saw pineapple fields, took on a tour to see the Kualoa mountains, and ate lots of local specialties. 

We didn’t have time to see everything, so we’re definitely looking forward to coming back! 

1. Jungle Expedition Tour (@kualoaranch). It was pouring and cold for the 1st half of the tour, but it was still a lot of fun! I’ll bring a rain poncho next time just in case. 
2. Shave ice w/ housemade syrup (strawberry milk, guava & kyoho grape). So refreshing & delicious! (@chillestshaveice) 
3. View of the Kualoa Mountains
4. Malasadas. We love the original & cinnamon (non-filled). Light, fluffy w/ a slightly chewy exterior. They totally live up to the hype! (@leonardsbakeryhawaii)
5. Rainbow spotted from our hotel hallway (@princewaikiki)
6. Huli Huli chicken (Hawaiian grilled chicken) on the grill. Tender & tasty. (@yummyhuli)
7. Sunset view from our room (@princewaikiki)
8. Poke bowl w/ onion ahi & furikake salmon. YUM! (@taniokas)

Molten Chocolate Cakes w/ Raspberry Filling. An up Molten Chocolate Cakes w/ Raspberry Filling. An updated version of this dessert from 2013, but just as delicious as ever. It’s a classic w/ a twist: rich & chocolatey cake w/ a tart raspberry center. Not overly sweet. You can even make it a few hours ahead, then bake after dinner.

Wishing you a sweet Valentine’s Day filled with love, whether that’s shared with someone special or enjoyed as a little extra self-care. 💕

Started off the year babysitting my sister’s dog, Started off the year babysitting my sister’s dog, Truffle. This little cutie is sweet, clingy, and so well-behaved. Even though it rained a lot, we still squeezed in short walks and quick lunch outings together.

He loves crunchy veggies like carrots and Napa cabbage. He is so smart when it comes to snuffle activities. We hid treats in a rolled-up towel and tied it into a knot. He untied and unrolled it in no time! 

Such a fun (and cuddly) way to kick off the year.
2025 is coming to an end! This year has been espec 2025 is coming to an end! This year has been especially full of family time for me. We were lucky to spend so much time with my parents, my mother-in-law, my sister, & my brother-in-law, and I’m truly grateful for all those moments.
