Chopsticks, Ham, Soup, and Celantro

Not all together.

Saturday, The Cat still dealing with difficult clients and crisis files. Not as bad as tax season, but still bad.

The Mouse, some play, some work.

“Breakfast” was remnants of The Cat’s lunch on Friday.

Roast Pork Belly with Pesto Stuffing
Mashed Potato
Sauteed Spinach

Very tasty. May try the chef’s Saturday prix fixe meal dinner soon.

Checked out a “store” that used to be in the mall, but left (dunno why), now in warehouse space.

Since 1900

Less of a store, more of a “garage sale”. Recently opened after years of silence. Owner is getting up there age-wise. maybe trying to sell off inventory (all old stock, nothing new) before …

Bought a nice set of chopsticks.

Chopsticks

Not sure if supplier is still in existence. Nice crafting. Trying to decide whether to keep them or use them. Leaning toward using them to celebrate the craftsmanship.

Lunch.

Ham Sandwich

From Honey Glazed Hams of Hawaii. I know for variety, but why would anyone order anything else but a hams sandwich  from a place called Honey glazed Hams of Hawaii? Just wondering.

Dinner, back at Sweet Home Aunty, comfort food at its best.

Kabocha Soup with Rice

The Cat is falling in love with the rice topping.

The Mouse’s Stir-Fry

New preparation on the menu, stir-fry with rice (instead of soup). Cilantro, green onions, and ginger onion sauce from the condiment bar. Can you tell The Mouse likes cilantro, green onions, and green onion ginger sauce? Camouflage. Hee hee.

A little sweet to end the meal and day.

Shave Ice with Coffee Jelly and Red Beans

Dined kinda late, the other colorful jelly were gone. That’s okay, coffee jelly and red beans turned out to be a good mix if not photogenic.

Plus a public service announcement. Sweet Home Aunty now closed on Tuesdays … too tired. 🙂

Enjoy. Eat well.

It’s Not Kalua Pork

Picked this up on  the way home today.

Pork Roast

It’s not Kalua pork (didn’t have time to make), but I think it’ll do in a pinch. Used it as part of The Cat’s lunch tomorrow.

Shredded Pork Roast with Napa Cabbage

Will report what The Cat thought of it.

Church secretary shared this.

Cookie based on Daniel Diet

She’s observing Lent. Many of the church staff are following the Daniel Diet. The Mouse? No. Taste much better than it looks. Although between that and a good oatmeal cookie? No comparison, oatmeal cookie of course. 🙂

Enjoy. Eat well.
