had a wonderful dinner at my favorite taiwan nabe restaurant. a wonderful talk with Ieki-san and Masami-san while eating our healthier nabe dinner. i’ve probably known this wonderful couple for over 15 years. and wanted to say hello to their daughter Minami-chan. attending college and on her way to a great career. hope to see you all very soon again.
