What's your favorite dish? Favorite to cook?

It’s impossible to choose, so a few of my favorite dishes include udon, beef stew and anything in a bread bowl. I usually cook pretty simple dishes that are comforting or nostalgic to me, like fried spam with rice and grilled mochi in broth. These dishes are super easy and quick to make, yet still delicious!

Describe your musical taste. 

My musical taste is extremely varied; I often say it depends more on the song than the artist. I listen to a lot of pop and have a soft spot for musicals, with a bit of everything else sprinkled in. But, when I have to pick a favorite artist, it’s always Taylor Swift. Her Reputation concert will always be one of the best I’ve attended, and her albums never disappoint.
