I spent yesterday sitting at home, nursing a sinus infection and wondering what I could possibly have for lunch with the few staples we still actually have in our chicken. For whatever reason (probably because I was cold) I really wanted some soup. Chicken noodle soup, to be exact.

I know the name sounds deceiving, but it is my all time favorite Thai dish! It was my parents' first time having it and they kept asking for seconds, thirds, etc! Haha.

Sometimes a recipe can be too obvious and takes a special kitchen fairy to think of it. (No, I'm not referring to myself!) Many of us like quick and easy recipes that contain items we most likely already have in our kitchens. This is a quick and fabulous meal that anyone can make.

This is my FAVORITE thing to eat: Kabocha no Nimono. It's a traditional Japanese dish made of Kabocha (Japanese pumpkin) that's simmered in a little water, sugar, dashi and soy sauce on the stove. It's so delicious, I could eat it everyday and never tire of it.

Last night, the boyfriend and I met friends at Jones, my favorite restaurant in Philly.
I ordered one of my favorite dishes there last night, the sesame-seared tuna with coconut rice, snow pea salad and wasabi-sweet soy sauce. They won't share the recipe with me, but I went online and found some very similar recipes.

I love stir-frys since they are quick and easy weekday dinner! After the chopping in less than 20 minutes, dinner is served! This week was brussels sprouts, bell pepper, snap peas, onions, ginger, carrots, bok choy and soy beans.

Olive oil for many Westerners may be just simple cooking oil, but to the people of Greece it is much more than that. In the ancient Mediterranean civilisations, olive oil was inseparable from civilised life itself. Olive oil was not only an important food item but it was also burned in lamps to provide light, it could be used as a lubricant, and it was blended with essences to produce fragrant oils.
