Stovetop Grill

I was at the Asian grocery the other day and shopping for hot pot ingredients and saw this indoor grill thing. I said to myself, hey that looks interesting and I impulsively bought it. It made me ponder about what exactly is grilling for? And why would you grill on the stove. I’ve actually had…

Coffee Drank: Stumptown Ethiopia Single Origin

I don’t usually drink Ethiopian coffee, for reasons unrelated to the taste of it, however, I decided to try Stumptown’s because I think the store was out of other Stumptown imprints.

From DC to North Carolina. I’m thinking of stopping by the Biltmore Estate in Asheville. Coincidently, the best restaurant in America, deemed by the James Beard Foundation, is an Indian restaurant also in Asheville.

I’m trying to stay hydrated
So I got this water jug that helps you keep track of how much water to drink at a time. This is so much water to drink everyday. I don’t know if I drank this amount of liquid in a week, let alone day. This is probably why I’m always dehydrated, especially after exercising.

I’ve been eating Top Ramen
At midnight lately. I’m not sure why. I don’t think I’m particularly hungry. I think it’s mostly out of boredom. I should stop soon.
