Tom Kha Gai Soup

Tom Kha Gai Soup

I haven’t been in the kitchen like this in a while, but it’s nice to be back. With my healthy lifestyle, I’ve mostly been eating very simple, basic foods who’s calories can be accounted for pretty easily in my LoseIt app.

Today I was feeling particularly nostalgic for a soup I discovered a few years ago when I went to my first Thai restaurant: Tom Kha Gai, a rich, savory soup with coconut milk, tamarind soup base, and chicken. I’ve made this soup in the past, but it’s been a long time so I decided to recreate it, this time documenting the recipe. There’s an alternate version of this soup called Tom Yum Gai (same flavors, no coconut milk), but I love the pairing of rich coconut milk with the sour tamarind soup base and haven’t been able to stray.

Volume 11

I decided to start the year with a new journal. The previous one was ok and in fact I still had pages left in it, but I thought it was an appropriate time to start fresh in a new book.

She Loves Me, She's Just Too Stubborn to Show it

She Loves Me, She's Just Too Stubborn to Show it

Izzie hates it when I leave for work in the mornings. How does she show it? Usually by ignoring me. She will stay in the bedroom as I'm getting ready to leave and not even bother to come out and say bye when I open the door. Except this morning, I kept talking to her from the living room, calling her name and telling her I was leaving. She quietly crept out of her bed and peeked her head out of the room. I didn't notice it until I was almost out the door. So I took a picture to remind myself that even when she doesn't show it, she still cares.
