Week #29

Mayor of Poop Town


Not a care in the world


Grandparent double duty - babysitting and cat-sitting


You wouldn't know it from his beautiful smile, but Max has punk rock sensibilities


Mom, have you ever considered becoming a chiropractor?


Grandma soaks in the cuteness


BONUS CONTENT: Pickle Press Time!

A newly purchased pickle press from Umami Mart gets ready for its inaugural run. On deck: one backyard cucumber, garlic powder, ginger, salt, and dashi. Let's make some tsukemono!


The cucumber and ginger get sliced up and stacked inside the press, with spices sprinkled on top. Then they feel the pressure of the press, and the chill of the fridge.


After almost two days, these cukes have expelled a lot of water and look ready to eat.


Itadakimasu! After making the first batch, the chef learned his grandma used to have a pickle press. Gotta get some tips for next time...
