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.

Ramen is such a cozy little dish. The steamy broth, the assortment of delicious toppings, the egg on top.
Visit your local ramen shop and get a bowl. You won’t regret it. Incredible!

i’ll make some ramen noodles and instead of leaving them in the soup, i stir fry them with frozen veggies, soy sauce, sesame oil, and teriyaki sauce and sprinkle some everything bagel seasoning on top. if i‘m feeling crazy i’ll put some nori and chicken in there too.

I’m not a parent and do not plan to be. Kids can wear me out fast with their high energy and noise level; it leaves me very over-stimulated. But it’s pretty extreme when people say they ”hate kids” and I often feel it’s a reflection of their childhood and beliefs around how kids “should be.” That they were expected to be quiet, obedient, and out of the way by their parents when they were little.
It’s fucking hard to be a kid. You’re dealing with a rapidly-changing body and underdeveloped brain, managed by flawed adults who are enforcing boundaries that you do not understand. It’s confusing and hard to manage your feelings and honestly just a lot.
People are impatient with kids when they‘re brand new to the world and figuring it all out, and this is a time kids need a friend the most. Children can also be teachers to adults with how they are less habituated to the world. They teach us how to be free and open-hearted and silly and imaginative.
A good practice is to be kinder and gentler with kids. If that feels difficult, start with gentleness toward your inner child. Maybe that’s the child in your life that needs your attention and kindness most.

I meant to post this yesterday. Absolutely beautiful morning for walk.
This morning is also beautiful but in a spring rain kind of way.
