White flower kazari sushi
Back when I was dancing as a teenager, I used to have a tradition for every show. On the first night of the show, my mom and I would stop at a flower shop on the way to the theater and we would pick up a huge bouquet of carnations. And then when we got
Poo-Shi
So many of us have creative dreams that we never quite pursue. Maybe you want to be an artist or a writer or a dancer or a musician or anything where you’re creating something… but you’re scared. What if you’re no good? What if nobody likes it? What if you just can’t do it? I’ve
Tiger Stripe Sushi
I love the practice of referring to stretch marks as tiger stripes. It just sounds so fierce. I haven’t been pregnant yet – I have no children, but I do have stretch marks on my legs from when I hit puberty and my hips just blossomed like crazy. So I’ve got these stretch marks on
Kiwi muffins
Every single time for the past 15 years that we’ve gone home to my in-laws house, they always have to send home fruit. Sometimes it’s apples. Sometimes it’s oranges or tangerines or homegrown dragonfruit, but every once in a while, we’ll get some kiwi. And my husband will always say don’t you worry – I
Hot Pink Flower Kazari Sushi
I was one of those girls growing up who hated the color pink. I would not buy anything pink. I would not wear pink, except for ballet, because you really can’t avoid it there, but given a choice I’d rather wear that purple leotard – not the pink one. Give me the black tights –

Black and white triangle kazari makizushi
Growing up, I didn’t really wear makeup except for the occasional dance show or Halloween. But the older I’ve gotten, the more makeup kind of feels like a shield against the world. Oh, well, I have to wear it because I’m going to look washed out if I’m filming and I’m not wearing makeup. Oh,
Broccoli Cheddar Soup
As the weather gets colder, I’m really getting in the mood for soups. Any kind of soups. One soup that I’ve never actually made at home until now, but has always been really good when I’ve tried it, is broccoli cheddar soup. BUT I’m lactose-intolerant, so I can’t really go for the kind of soups
“A” Kazari Makizushi
I am an introvert. I’m a shy awkward nervous socially inept introvert – which means meeting new people is always a little nerve-wracking for me, but I can deal with the meeting new people. What makes it really really terrible is when there’s an ice breaker. Does anybody actually like this? I can never come
