This cosmic blueberry galaxy jelly hits different with the right soundtrack 🌌✨
@nagoyan2gou your comment made me swap the music for Earth, Wind & Fire’s “Fantasy” and now this song will be stuck in my head all day 😂
Enjoy the world’s most groovy cosmic jelly! You now how to dance while making it 😆🪩
I made a galaxy jelly. 💙🫐✨
Butterfly pea ombre with fresh blueberry juice, lemon flavor, and a shimmering glitter mint layer — whole blueberries floating like stars in the night sky.
A little universe in dessert form. 🌌

I tried umeboshi, the Japanese pickled plum, for the first time the other day—oh my goodness, so salty but the flavor was amazing! Despite the saltiness, I found myself craving one this morning. It has some kind of magic power to tempt and draw you in. I heard a few of my Japanese friends say just looking at one makes their mouth water—I didn’t understand it at the time, but I think I’m beginning to. It gave me a real boost of energy. I’m excited to try making onigiri with it today.

We went out for Vietnamese lunch and tried lots of unique international snacks today. Now Korean delivered for dinner. My daughter picked all the food choices today. Love her adventurous spirit!
Dinner: Chicken Gangjung, Jjajangmyeon, Jap Chae (sweet potato noodles, first time trying, so chewy and savory), Bibimbap, Dakgalbi, Miso Soup. Loved all the little side dishes (반찬) like kimchi, pickled radish, and veggies; my daughter told me what they were called. She knew that little bit of info I didn’t.
Lunch at our favorite Vietnamese restaurant. Got the usual: pho with extra tofu and bok choy. Enjoyed it with a charcoal cream foam tea. My daughter had a butterfly limeade.

Just 2 days in and look at these bubbles!
Our homemade kimchi is alive and fermenting strong!
Kimchi for breakfast anyone? My daughter and I made our first batch and the flavors are already amazing! We’ll taste it daily to see how fermentation changes everything. Planning kimchi soup and fried rice next. If you make it, let me know how yours turns out. Suggestions for next batch welcome! Here’s the detailed beginner video. 🌶️

Little tasting party! Got my daughter some international snacks and ramen she requested. She wants to share, so we’re all tasting together as a family. Personally most excited to try the kimchi chips.
It’s my daughter’s birthday! She specifically requested different ramen and international snacks, so I hit Exotic Snacks at the mall for this colorful haul. I even got her a huge exotic snack mystery box. It’ll be fun to go through.
Got her mango Jin Shan Jiao cakes, multiple flavors of Silky Gem crystals, green tea & cheesecake Pocky, lots of unique ramen and more. I’m so excited to give it to her when I get home! 🎉🍭

I made lacto-fermented blueberries for the first time with lemon peel salt! Full of probiotics, antioxidants, digestion support. Sip tangy brine as daily health shot. Eat berries on yogurt, salads, or as snack. They stay plump and flavorful. Tasted one after a few hours—flavor already brightening with tangy lemon notes. Fun watching fermentation transform it! 🫐🍋
Good morning! Today’s all about blueberries! Experimenting with a few different blueberry recipes while sipping blueberry mint kombucha. This drink has given me ideas. 🫐🌿

X is dropping new features every single week and it’s honestly impressive. I can’t wait for auto-generated closed captions with automatic translation on all videos. That would be game-changing for global creators and viewers. Hope it’s in the works 🤞
Today I’m testing X’s new auto closed captions by talking into a video while biting into a Japanese pickled plum (umeboshi) for the first time!
Oh my goodness — you guys said it was salty, but I wasn’t expecting that salty!
I had no idea the seed was still inside. I don’t know why I assumed it was removed — bit right in and was surprised to hit it.
Does closed captions work for you? Do they auto-translate into your language?
I think if we get auto captions auto translate, there’s no stopping the exchange of information.

Somehow edible luster dust always ends up in my creations 😂✨
It wasn’t even part of the plan today, but here we are… Look at this! It looks like the galaxy 🌌
I’m so excited about this one — butterfly pea ombre blueberry lemon mint jelly with a surprise shimmer layer. Giving it a 50/50 chance of actually working… we’ll see by tomorrow morning! 💙🫐🍃
