Tea Cookies

Probably Sergey's favorite cookies, but only one person in our family knows how to make them perfectly. Recently I got down on my hands and knees and begged to be taught the sacred recipe. I was granted my boon...

Caprese Toast

What started as Sergey and I downing Bucca di Beppo sized caprese salad servings morphed into us making our own, and then adjusting it into a "light meal" or "healthy snack" depending on how many you make.

The Anxious Mantra

When I talk about the track that plays in my head when I'm anxious, more people these days seem to get it. In some ways, it's comforting because I feel seen and understood. In other ways, it's horrifying. I should not be so broadly understood. That I am just means the problem is spreading.

Teriyaki Sauce

We might be on a "Yaki" kick. Teriyaki chicken. Teriyaki sauce. Yakisoba. Teriyakisoba...?

Chicken Teriyaki

What's there to say? We wanted to make our own chicken teriyaki. So we went to our favorite Japanese cook online and adjusted the recipe to suit our needs.
