August 13th 2023. Had work. Dad got some takeout dimsum so we had a late breakfast. Love those little dumplings. Made some pasta puttanesca for myself, added the core four: anchovies, olives, capers, and tomato. The first time I tried it, which was maybe a week before that day, I didn’t put in olives, but it was very good. (I added onion instead of garlic, too.) I tend to undersalt my food so the tart salinity of what looked like an unassuming tomato sauce was a pleasant surprise.
