Odds ‘n’ Ends

Apologies for yesterday. Life got in the way, early morning blood test, chiro, vegetable shopping for potluck.

Friday Take-Out

Kalua pork plate. Store ran out of lomi salmon and haupia (not The Mouse’s favorite anyway), more sweet potato instead (went to The Cat’s bento this week).

Kalua Pork and Pickles

Mmm!

Saturday breakfast.

Overnight Oats

Hazelnut “milk” instead of moo milk. Almond and coconut flavor (from the reduced bin at the grocery store). Try try. Good concept, not The Mouse’s favorite “flavor”, not really fond of nuts and coconut. But, if there are other flavors (no nuts, no coconut) might be more favorable.

The Mouse was able to stop in at his favorite bakery to pick up whole wheat square bread. This week’s peanut butter sandwich lunch will be good. Hee hee.

And since I was at the bakery …

Chicken Salad Sandwich

Really good! Not overly mayonnaise-d, just a touch of celery and walnuts for texture. One of The Mouse’s favorites.

Lunch.

“Shredded Pork” and Preserved Sichuan Vegetable with Fried Egg over Rice

Ramen shop at the mall. The Mouse thinks restaurant over rinsed the Sichuan vegetable, kinda bland, and bowl needed some sauce (just a little bit).

Potluck dinner gonna be vegetarian. The Mouse had to compensate (chicken salad and pork). 😉

The Mouse contributed:

Cucumber and Napa Cabbage Salad

Dressed with apple cider vinegar, salt, osmanthus vinegar, lemon ponzu, no oil (host trying to limit oil intake) Humph.

Toaster Oven Asparagus

Olive oil, sea salt. The Mouse had to use oil, otherwise, no roasting.

The Cat contributed:

Mango

Mango availability seems “abundant” this year.

Host made.

Tofu Vegetable Soup

and

Vegan Black Bean and Chocolate Balls

Dessert.

Food was good, although The Mouse kinda wanted a burger afterwards. Hee hee.

Enjoy. Eat well.
