Happy New Year :-)) January 4, 2011

Filed under: Friends,Video — Jung @ 1:11 am

Couldn’t resist sharing this, every time I look at it, I laugh like a silly little kid — had a ball this New Year’s Eve. Will post pictures of food I made when they are sent to me Smile


Jed and Chris (since when I started hanging with 21 year olds?! lol) at the piano, video length 4 min 43 sec

So, a note of warning… excuse me for my outbursts of “I love you, Jed”… It was late, and there were only a few of us left lol

and no, it wasn’t me humming, and no, I didn’t start playing “Right Here Waiting” this time, and no, it wasn’t my hand, and yes, it was my knee…

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!

Can’t believe I made Miya grilled porterhouse with ground porcini mushroom dry rub after I had just seen the documentary “Food Inc” at the Film Forum 2 weeks ago… well, this was per request… hah, smelled like very animal-ie flesh and bloody thing-ie to me =P

Linda Tao

For no reason at all, I baked some heart shaped raisin scones for the first time (they were fabulous btw!!), a fresh loaf of 12 grain bread, and cooked up a big pot of vege soup this afternoon. Facebooked bff Linda over and she just came — after her busy day treating patients! — she makes me happy Smile We had the loveliest time on my roof garden, the day was beautiful…

Linda Tao 

love her!!!

Fun Night :-) April 20, 2009

Filed under: food,Friends,Music — Jung @ 1:34 pm

Making dinner at bff Linda’s last night. Had mover packed up all my books — didn’t have enough time nor resources to sketch up a more complexed menu… But it was still a tasty dinner, well, I assume, and as I was told Smile since I didn’t eat any of the food — on the 4th day of my raw vege juice fast — trying to regain my health.
