I was beyond excited to see these pussy willows (銀柳) at Trader Joe’s yesterday. Pussy willows symbolize prosperity (銀). And I also got some Ferrero Rocher. Ferrero Rocher is extremely popular during this time of year. Candies are sweet, so they represent love & harmony (甜甜蜜蜜). 🐉🏮

I made this Sweet Red Bean Soup w/ Rice Dumplings (紅豆沙湯丸) last week. It was aromatic, not too sweet & comforting. My favorite is the little mochi balls. Chewy & great texture. I made 2 versions, one w/ dried mandarin orange peel & one w/ fresh orange zests. Both were very good, but the fruitiness from the fresh orange was phenomenal! Bryan & I both like that zest one a little bit more.

Back at Gram Cafe (@gramcafepancakesusa). Bryan ag Back at Gram Cafe (@gramcafepancakesusa). Bryan agreed that the soufflé pancakes were absolutely amazing! Super light & fluffy. Portion is pretty small. It’s more like a dessert size than a brunch size. We also shared the egg Benedict. They use pancakes instead of English muffins, so it’s sweet. But we think it’s too sweet for a savory dish. Hope to try some other savory items next time! 

Gram Cafe started in Osaka in 2014. It is one of the original restaurants that serves souffle pancakes. It was super popular & I have always wanted to try it. So thrilled that it’s now in Los Angeles. This Monterey Park location opened in April, 2023.

We volunteered to decorate one of the floats for t We volunteered to decorate one of the floats for the Rose Parade (@rose_parade). Lots of glueing & covering w/ seeds. We worked for 6 hours, but barely did anything for that float. Definitely have another level of respect for the all the floats & decorators. Tiring, but it was very fun!

What we did today:
- cut out flower petals from dried flowers
- glue & cover a star w/ cranberry seeds
- glue & cover 2 horses’ manes, tails, mouths, noses & hooves w/ onion seeds & ground coffee.

Pausing your Thanksgiving feed for a moment, I’m Pausing your Thanksgiving feed for a moment, I’m sharing this new recipe, My Favorite Bolognese. Comfort food is exactly what we need this time of the year. This bolognese is umami & very flavorful but not too heavy. Most importantly, part of the cooking happens in the oven, so you can walk away & relax! I’ve made this a few times in the past couple months, & has become one of my go-to recipes. Hope you guys will like it too!
