I’ve been on somewhat of a hiatus from writing lately since starting medical school, but the topics of death and dying have been coming up in classes. November is also the month in the Catholic tradition when we remember the souls of the dearly departed so I’ve been reminded about some stories.   

Chicken Katsu, crunchy and tender fried chicken

Katie taught me how to make this version of fried chicken popular in Japan, Korea, and Hawaii – it’s a great crowd pleaser and goes well with parties and beer. Ingredients are relatively easy to find, too. You can do a lot with it, too! Serve it as a finger food with sauce on the side or over a bed of curry or noodles.

It’s so sad to be leaving Boston soon! Even after years of heinous weather and beguiling snowstorms, I might actually miss this place. Only a week left to claim as much of the Bay State as possible. Before leaving, I hope get my fill of Boston. Anyone got any suggestions? Hit me up with some comments! (and yes, I realize most of these are food related)
