Whether it’s Chinese, Thai, Japanese, or Indian, leftover takeout rice is almost inevitable. Half of the time, I’ll bet you don’t even get around to eating it. Well, waste no more! While this might not be my mom’s recipe (or, who knows, maybe it is), it sure is a good one. For what?Leftover night rice

I am broken. :c I was at a trampoline park with my cousin the other day, and I missed the trampoline and came down on the little divider beam instead and wrenched my ankle with a loud crack. SO… Now I’m on crutches. Yaaay. As a result, I’ve spent a lot of time lying on

When I went to Idaho at the beginning of the summer, I bought a bottle of fry sauce. For those of you who have never had your taste buds christened with this delightful condiment, imagine thousand island dressing, but better. It’s a ketchup and mayo base, usually. This particular brand I have tastes like it

Ever since I started this blog, my dad has been asking me to make something for him. Now that classes are finished and my job has not yet begun, I finally have time to go home and cook for my parents. At first, it was kind of weird. I’m used to my kitchen: My appliances,
