Beef Steak and Onion
This scrumptious meal is inspired by the popular Filipino cuisine, Bistek Tagalog, that my father often cooked. It was a staple dish in our household when I was growing up. I love it so much that it is a favorite food for me to take for my school lunch. In this version, I cut down on the soy sauce so it is not as dark and salty as the original.

Crispy Pata
I remember fondly the times when my father and mother would visit me at the dorm during my college years. They traveled at least five hours round trip to bring me some change of clothes and some of my favorite dishes that my father cooked himself. Crispy Pata was always one of those dishes I always requested.

Meatless Monday
Cooking this vegetarian dish, Pinakbet with Tofu reminds me of my dad's vegetable garden. Dad, an avid gardener, grew all kinds of vegetables in our backyard. My dad came from a poor family, so gardening for my dad's family was not a hobby to enjoy, but a means to put food on the table. Growing up, I had fond memories of the times he would have me pick some vegetables like tomatoes, green beans, and eggplants, and they would be part of a wonderful meal he himself would cook.

Bacon and Scrambled Eggs with Tomatoes
Brunch for me for me today. This was one of our usual breakfasts growing up. It’s something my father would make for us to eat before taking us to school.

Tortang Talong - Eggplant Omelette
The grilled whole eggplants are dipped in an egg mixture and pan-fried to create this traditional Filipino omelette. The simplest ingredients—egg, salt, pepper, and eggplant—can produce great flavors. This dish is usually served by my father for breakfast on the weekends. One of the numerous foods my father prepares that I love.

-Screaming "Simple and Clean" inside my motorcycle helmet while I wait for the red light to change. These past two weeks, phew. KH3 was good, lookin' forward to more.
Never had coworkers who played videogames when Kingdom Hearts all first started, Garwik was the one who was interested in it, I was sort of noncommital. I'd discovered Studio Ghibli in 1997 and was increasingly unimpressed with how cliche and uninspired Disney films seemed comparatively. I'd played a few Square games, but meh? Running around in the stupid derivative media Mouse worlds? For some reason I started playing it anyway, and Riku caught my attention as a character. Yah, yah, the tortured hero schtick.
And it's, what, 17 years later?
It's fun with the internet and social media now; to see everyone talking and sharing and making art and coming up with plot theories. You're all awesome.
I got a Riku hoodie for Xmas, maybe I'll wear it to work next week and see if anyone comments. A couple years back I had a Tevinter Imperium sweatshirt from Dragon Age 3 and one of the actors was like !!! and we both ignored work for five minutes talking about who we romanced, as you do. (DORIAN).
some of you haven’t been playing kh since 2002 and it shows
