Working towards peace
Honored to have met George Mitchell through the scholarship program. The other Mitchell Scholars - well, they are the ones who have traveled extensively and know multiple langugages. In short, they are incredible people.

Lego NY
I can only imagine what Baltimore would look like. Maybe a black and white Natty Boh sign or a red crab.

Superbowl Steakhouse
I am an oyster-shucking machine.
I dubbed tonight's Sunday dinner theme as "Superbowl Steakhouse." We started off with Atlantic oysters from the Asia supermarket. Neither one of us had ever shucked an oyster. Enter YouTube and Google. The Food Network and YouTube seem to have done more than almost anything else to teach Americans the how-to's of atypical fare. I loved the pop of the oyster shell breaking its seal. These oysters were slightly sweet with little brine flavor in its liqueor. I just hope I don't meet the Vibrio sp. tonight.
Then, we had 10 minutes of waving towels at the smoke alarm before our high iron meal: steak, broccoli, and rice.
Stimulating the economy, one home-cooked meal at a time.
