Roommate picked up a bunch of packs last night because they saw it on TikTok, we added in bacon and a poached egg for a GINUWINE carbonara feel. So good but spice level is not for the weak we had to have communal Kefir at the dinner table
If you can handle the spicies! I add a fried egg, sliced green onions and furikake (and sometimes frozen dumplings if I have them) to dress it up. My go-to flavors are curry and creamy carbonara (I think the latter is one of their least spicy flavors).
I‘ve shared the virtues of fancy salad, but there is also fancy ramen. A staple in our home. Toss the flavor pack. I make a simplified version of the (linked) recipe; adding butter, tomato paste, and ginger are key. I also use miso or a stock concentrate as my broth base. For toppings, go nuts! In this photo, I included baked tofu, medium-boiled egg, jalapeño, and kimchi. A few sprinkles of Everything Bagel seasoning are also nice and recommend. Typically takes me 30min to make. Fast, easy, and delicious.
It’s Friday night and I’m off work late with no plans but I felt like being out in the world, even if for a moment. Turns out, a low stakes glass of orange wine tastes great when you’re waiting for a $10 burrito platter from down the street.
I’ve spent so much time scrolling on this app that I’m able to discern some of your writing voices. There are a couple of you who have such a developed voice that I can guess you wrote a post before seeing the attached username. You’re all so observant, introspective, delusional, earnest, anxious, well-rounded, hilarious and loving.
Kind of breaks my heart that I’ll likely never meet some of my favorites because we all live everywhere, but I guess that’s why we thank God for the Internet!
I‘ve always been an adamant listener of music while on walks, at a cafe, etc. but recently I’ve feeling more anxious, more disconnected than usual. Not listening to music has helped me feel significantly more grounded, more aware of my surroundings, connected to the world around me. Also, strangers will definitely be more inclined to speak to you if they know you can hear them. If you’re into that sort of thing.
