Obsessed: Cooking with Dog

Japanese people are just... Japanese.

From wacky to kawaii to scary.

In this part it's part weird part kawaii part awesome.

Cooking with Dog is a Japanese Cooking Youtube Channel where a really nice & polite looking older lady cooks with her gray Poodle dog on her side. Bitch is just chillin there on the stool just looking fabulous.

See what I'm talking about? And the whole video is narrated by a guy with a thick Japanese accent named Francis.

I'm super obsess with this channel. Makes me want to quit my job and just cook all day.

Here are some recipes that I want to try.







Gah... Gotta LOVE Japan. That's on my bucket list!

Things I Love Monday: February 2013

Wah... It's March already! Crazy. Cool things happened during February...

• I did the Color Run at the Dodgers Stadium, this time with my friends. It was funner with a group!! Then we hit up the Grove for grubbing... Where Rob photobombed a couple who were making out *gross*

• I finally finished Homeland Season 1. I'm waiting for the Second season to come out on DVD. Dank, that show is INTENSE.
• Super in Love with Rachel Khoo's Cookbook

• One Saturday night, I watched "Jiro Dream of Sushi" and I was super inspired of Jiro-san. If you haven't watch it, I recommend it. 

• This month's Call was crazy. I did probably 11 hours of call-back. The paycheck was pretty though, haha. And thanks to the call back, I worked 12 Days Straight. I was sooo beat by the end of day 12.
• Finally had a date night with Rob for our Belated Valentine's Day. We haven't done it in a while due to our busy schedule and him traveling a lot. Cheesecake Factory is one of our favorite places to eat. Nom. Not only that, he brought me my favorite flower, Lilies :)

Chimmy being lazy; I made Gougeres; The lilies :) and our date night

• Some foods that I made in February: Thin Mints Chocolate Cupcakes, Marbled Cake, Chicken Katsu, Choquettes & Gougeres & Macarons! 

• And reunited with my Game Night crew!! My Santa Barbara sister was in town with her family and so was I (aka I was in Orange County), so we all decided with my Tustin sister and her hubs to have dinner. It's so nice to be together again; plus we celebrated SB's husband's birthday aka the Ex-Boyfriend. Baby Adam aka Kuma-Chan is getting cuter. I want to bite him all the time! 

• I got a mole on my right eyebrow removed. It's been there for about a year. At first I thought it was a zit. So of course, being me, I popped it. Then it kept on coming back! Annoying. So finally I got it removed and it's under investigation. The Nurse Practitioner said it looks benign though. I did the biopsy before work, so I was at work all day with a bandaid over the wound. My co-worker decided to draw a smiley face. Of course, everybody, including patients, looked at me weird.

• Rob went to Chicago this month and he flew me in some deep dish Pizza. That's my man. 

• And of course the brat in me decided to buy Justin Timberlake & JayZ's concert tickets. You know it. Fangirling will happen in July! Suit and Tie people.

Well, I know March is gonna be awesome. I can't wait.

March Goals

Well well. Month 3 of 2013 is here and I can't be more excited than this. Que? My trip is around the corner!!! Aww yeah...

Well time to link up with my gurl, Melissa from Insert Sarcastic Remark Here, but first, let's recap my successful list of February.

And let me tell you, all 5 goals FAILED. Esp number 3. I've been sleeping at midnight EVERY SINGLE NIGHT. I did juice, once. I did Fab Ab Feb for 7 days. I did make Macarons (does that count as Sugar Cookies?) and I did some of my Cross Stitch. Super fail. I'll just give myself 1 point.

Moving on, let's go March!

• Enjoy my vacation: Yes I'm leaving in 6 days!
• Make Croissants: Will be doing this in France
• Finish a Novel: My friend loaned me her Silver Linings Playbook that she finished in 1 day! I haven't read as exciting as Hunger Games (I finished it in 8 hours) so I'm pretty stoked. 

Yes, just 3. I'm trying to keep it simple.

Gah. What are your goals?
