Summer Cookin'

I'm back in Los Angeles and trying to make as many of my own meals as possible. Hopefully I will be more consistent with recording my eats and treats. But often times a meal is shredded romaine lettuce, a veggie burger patty, and a pita. Sad, I know. That's why when I came across a recipe for a coconut cream of corn in a magazine I decided to exert a bit of effort and make the dish.



Overall the corn "salad" was simple yet refreshing and I will probably make it again. It was especially tasty with some fresh cilantro added into the mix. Next time I would probably use light coconut milk over the full-fat version just because I'm a fan of watching unnecessary calories.

In other news I have been surfing a lot and trying to get back into my pre-college shape. I've also been reconnecting with my Angeleno friends -- going out to nice dinners and bars and clubs. It's a whole new game at the age of 22.
