某日之晚餐...

This is not the best I've had... but really a luxury to me...

CellCell 大戰 Asian Market

Saturday: Hun and I went to a newly open Asian Market to see how's everything are like in there. Turnout, it was pretty nice. I couldn't find a few things i want there, but then I found few things that I couldn't find in the other Asian market... so I dunno... I guess I will have to pick one and I would likely pick the new one. There are Hong Kong style bakery and even a hot-cooked food section with few dim sum items and siu mei. I would love to try them out in the future!

Here are part of what I've got... I tried most of them, some of them are not as good as I had hope for but I think it's okay. I'm happy with all of them considering my limited choices.

Shop Shop Shop

Haven't done any entries for a while. Partially because of school and partially because of my laziness. :P Anyway... in this couple months, I did some shopping for the end of summer + early winter sale. Here is a picture of most of what I got. heheheee~

I really like everything I've got so far, esp. my London Fog rain coat, (it's functional + warm + high quality), my jeans, and my super super cute shoes. I also like these pants (not in the pic) I got to replace my old ones. They are so so comfortable but I only wear them at home. There are still a couple winter items in my mind, but... I better hold back cause I spent a lot already. >_<" Hun and I already got a big gift for ourselves that covered our birthday and Christmas, so we are done with that. As for as wishlist for my relatives goes, I already know what I will wish for... gift cards! gift cards! gift cards! They are the most unthoughtful gift but also my favorite! hehee~ :P

Anyway, thanks my hunhun who make things possible! He probably wanna kick my butt for shopping so much, oh well... poor guy. :P

Short Vacation - [22-24.07.2010] Fort Bragg + Mendocino, CA

Summer class is over, hunhun said it's time to have a relaxing vacation. We picked the easiest location, the coast - Fort Bragg. We've been there quite a few times already so we already know the way. The weather was ok and it was way cooler than Sacramento (60s'F vs. 90s'F). We had some really good food, expensive though... :P

We left home late Thursday. After about 4 hours of driving we arrived the motel at about 7:30pm. We had Japanese food that night. It was very good.

The next day we had a great breakfast. We visited the Guest House right across the street (It's a house built in 1892.) and searched for the Portuguese Hall because we will be in Fort Bragg again for the Portuguese Festas this September. We drove over to Mendocino and checked out there Farmer's Market afterward. It was quite small and since they were mostly selling fresh produces we didn't buy anything. Then we went over to the coast, walked long and enjoyed the great scenery. We had more seafood meal for dinner that night. :P yum!

The last day we took a few pictures of the Skunk Train after breakfast and left. It was time to rescue our lonely baby catcat Oly!

The first meal, very yummy but quite expensive for the amount of food...
This little plate is about HK$160.

The cool looking Skunk Train with Stream engine. (Hun and I figured it might be a quite boring 4-hr ride for US$4X so... we probably will never do it.)

Class is over soon~ YEAH!

Spare time... finally~ I was very busy in the past 5 weeks. This week will be the last week of my Summer class and I am feeling good because I can finally relax and I know I will have an "A" for the class. I think I did the right thing to work as hard as I could for the class. Though at the same time... I really hope I'm not working too hard for it. I would be really really upset if I know people who didn't put a lot of works into the class can get an "A" too. I should try not to think about that... >_<"

Anyway, my professor is great, we are very lucky to have him. He is something different. Since he will not teach 301/302 for a least 3 years + I might not take that class anyway, I guess I will not be in his class anymore. This class really drained my brain. I learned a lot but at the same time I felt like I could think anymore maybe because I used up all my "quota of thinking" hahaha!

Yummy cookies!

We got some Ricotta Cheese last week but ended up not using it. I decided to find a recipe to use it up because we are going over to Seattle next week. So here I found one, it's an Italian Ricotta Cheese cookies recipe! I tried it today, here are the pictures. The white glaze on top is lime glaze~ They are yummy! hehee~

New Rides...

So finally we gotta say goodbye to our old car (the one given by DadDad). Here is the new ride for Hunhun. This is such a great car! (It's actually a blue grey color called Ocean Blue but you can't tell in the picture) I'm not driving it and I wouldn't dare... =_=""" Hunhun, the driver said he likes it a lot though. I will be smelling the nice "new car smell" on him for a while~ hehehee~


I also need a ride because the bus that I take to school will stop running starting from 20 June =_="" so I have to find another way to go, either take a long bus ride (2 buses, takes 45mins) or walk (1 hour) or a bicycle ride (<15mins).That obviously was a quick decision. I can't tell how would I be able to handle that because I have never ride by the road where cars comes and go before. Though I'm sure it will be ok, because unlike Hong Kong, there are bike lanes with good amount of space here in the US.

We got this used bike last weekend from craigslist It was a pain to put the bike in and out of the trunk but we did it! It's a sturdy 21-speed bike. The ride was pretty smooth~ not BLUE but still Sweet! I dunno why... but I feel like this bike has a name and her name is... Abbey. heheee~ :P
