New Wok

Joseph and I talk a lot about what kinds of food we want to cook. We brainstorm and discuss, past dishes I've made, things we've tasted elsewhere and things we've seen on TV. As the weekend approaches we decide what we want to have for dinner. (Not every weekend, some weekends we don't have the time or have other plans, or I make something that I want to try out on him) Anyway, tonight we decided that we wanted to make Chinese Food in our new wok! We had talked about getting a wok for years and finally got one a few weeks ago in Austin, at Joseph's favorite store, Ross, nonetheless. So using it for the first time was exciting. This is what we came up with to christen our wok and break into the art of Chinese cuisine. We did well. Very very well.
