I proposed to my wife on March 3rd 2004 in Tokyo, Japan. That night it snowed and we woke up the next morning with a fresh blanket of snow covering all of Tokyo. It was quite romantic and naturally very memorable. Last night, I wanted to do something special so I got home early and started to cook to celebrate our anniversary. There seems to be a gazillion anniversaries us guys have to remember... Pumpkin Soup served with some vegetables Steamed / Roasted Pork Ribs with Cabbage Salad Spaghetti with Creamy Crab Sauce

Took the wife to momofuku today. Her first time. We got to say hi to David Chang (which made me look real cool in front of my wife) as he was hoping back and forth from Ko and Noodle Bar. Tons of business: even at 4pm, the place was packed. Sent via BlackBerry from T-Mobile
