As most of you know, I splurge on an imported panettone every year. This year I chose a midrange option (a standard Fiasconaro) and it’s fine.
I tell ya this random store-bought panettone-adjacent bread (bisciola) I got last year in Lake Como ruined everything for me.
NOTHING COMPARES 2 U

We went to KBBQ for dinner tonight and remembered how at this place in Seoul we went to they provided a plastic bag to put your jackets and stuff in so they don’t smell and so this time we brought our own garbage bags.
Success!

Nothing like the TVB theme to remind you you’re home lol.
(I don’t know when my parents started watching TVB but they are turning into my grandparents. Odd to me because they emigrated in their teens but I guess nostalgia hits hard in your later years.)

for the past couple days i've been thinking my phone is so old but it turns out it's only just a year old -- and i realized it's because nothing much has changed with the phones i've had for years.

Was craving a hot dog so decided to check out the hospital cafeteria where I get my allergy shots.
No hot dog but did try their $6 daily special (meatloaf plate).
Spoiler: clearly a $6 meatloaf plate from a hospital cafeteria (but $6! Cheaper than ikea meatballs!)
