Cookbook: Zine (ediblebeats.com)
I'm gonna have to learn more but for cooking (fish and meat, I think) Justin LOVES this stuff: HIKARI NAMA SHIO KOJI NO HANA , ひかり味噌 生塩こうじ 麹の花
He's also an audiophile with a pair of headphones that MIGHT be good enough for me to be slightly envious: Empyrean Black Copper | Meze Audio - Sound. Comfort. Design. True high-end.
