Love this so much! Usually have it with rice but occasionally add it into my salmon, dill, burrata and cream cheese bagels to add a bit of saltiness.

At the risk of sounding like your grandmother, I believe everyone should have a signature and impressive dish. For me, that is gravlax. Gravlax is the less briny, less saturated, and infinitely more elegant girlfriend of lox. Unlike lox which are smoked and pungent, gravlax is cured, creating a buttery texture and extremely fresh flavor. It is closer to sashimi and is stupidly simple to make. Here is the recipe, originally culled from the Silver Palate Cookbook but since bastardized by my mom:In a tupperware place one filet skin side down, cover with half of the salt/sugar mixture, place dill on top. Generously crack black pepper and put the other filet of salmon skin side up. This creates a sandwich effect. Add the rest of the sugar/salt mixture on top and pop the lid on the tupperware to really smush everything together. Each day, for the next three days, take it out of the fridge and flip the filets, redistributing the liquids that have formed with a spoon. On the third day it is ready to be sliced thinly with a sharp knife and eaten on a bagel, or over a burial plot of arugula.I have taught it to every roommate, boyfriend, girlfriend, roommate’s boyfriend, roommate’s boyfriend’s roommate, and culinarily curious friend I have. People beg for it, I promise!

With the checkerboard at the back? That’s right. I love using them unironically. And I love pictures of rocks.

And you’re set for life (with the added effort of maintaining it).
I used to try to surround myself with people who I thought were cool and also tried so bad to fit in. I still do feel conscious about that sometimes when I front for a person I place on a pedestal or really am infatuated with (in a platonic way).
I’ve also had friends I get easily frustrated with who point out my mistakes as jokes but I’ve realised are super flawed and insecure. It becomes a relationship where you slowly turn into a projection of them. (I’m not sure how to phrase it). And I’m the kind that forgives very easily the moment someone is nice to me.
Howeverrrrr… over the past few years and more so over the past year I found a group of people I could be open and comfortable with… and I have to say an open and fulfilling relationship with the right people and friends will make you a much better person overall. I’ve also been so inspired by the circle of friends I’ve got now.
It’s not necessarily the friends who always ask you to go out to shop or hang but the friends who you do things with and talk about anything with.
Gratefully & Gratituously,
I love my friends.
