Flied Lice and Happy Blogday to Me!

Unlike the dentist on Seinfeld who converted to Judiasm in order to make off-color Jewish jokes, I really am Japanese, so its OK that I joke about my Asian peeps…. right?  This leads to a funny story about Asian accents. Many many years ago, my stepfather, Rex worked at Lucy Ho’s, a small restaurant in Tallahassee, FL. Every day when my stepdad would come in, the cook would call out… Herrrrro Lex. I always wondered if he actually tried to say “Herro Lex” if it would come out Hello Rex? Anyone else wonder? I know my mom (who is Japanese, and still has a very thick accent) will laugh at this… you KNOW its funny! Love you mom! :P

Today’s post is a milestone for me… exactly one year blogging!  I’m so happy I let Stephan talk me into food blogging because its become a wonderful hobby for me.  I’ve “met” so many fellow bloggers, and truly enjoy being a part of the whole food bloggin’ thang.  Even better… I now have very organized recipes and have actually looked back when making certain dishes that I really like.  I honestly started this blog to be easy quick dinners, but know I’ve veered a bit from it with desserts.  I just can’t help it. I love to bake… I love desserts in general.  But today’s post of fried rice is going back to my original game plan of easy dinners.  If you’re planning on making rice as a side dish one night, just double (or triple) the amount you make and refrigerate the leftovers.  The next day, in less than 30 minutes, you can have yummy fried rice.
