My housemate cooked dinner for us today! :) Plus 4 other guests. So 8 total.
But the thing is that we don\’t have a dining table yet. So what we did was take the old box spring that one of the former tenants used. Put that on top of 3 yellow crates that another tenant left behind. And there was a table! All of us sat on pillows, Japanese style. Each person had two dishes plus a bowl and a wine glass. We had turkey katsu, chicken paprika, and guacomole dip. For dessert, Hershey\’s peanut butter cookies and cupcakes. So good! For some reason, lately I have been eating too quickly and I constantly finish my meal way before everyone else.
I also learned how to use the dishwasher today. In Lafayette, my parents never used the dishwasher. My mom used it as a storage space for her large pots. In Berkeley, I always washed the dishes by hand. Soap, rinse, and let dry in the rack. It\’s just amazing what a dishwasher could do…
dishwasher = dish rack. must be an asian thing. i never used the dishwater either, or owned a dish rack, until i moved to berkeley.
