Friday = Pieday

Yesterday was a good day for eating. The Mouse stayed late at work (on a Friday no less) … but The Mouse ate “well”.

Breakfast, same as yesterday. Oatcake and coffee.

Warehouse supplies the workers with coffee, but the selections can be a bit harsh at times. The nearby 7-Eleven has a 20% Kona blend, mellower.

Lunch was a tiny bit of a splurge. Japanese delicatessen.

“Mini Plate”

Shiso onigiri, kakuni (three big pieces), and tamagoyaki. The Mouse was happy.

Norma Desmond Shot

Pork was well cooked. Not soft, but fall off the bone texture.

The Cat’s lunch at one of the Irish pubs in town. Owner’s wife makes fresh pie only on Friday.

Shrimp and Crab Melt

The Cat’s sandwich, came with a side salad.

Berry Pie

The Cat brought home a slice for The Mouse. Not too sweet, lots of berry taste. Nom!

A good eating day for The Mouse.

Enjoy. Eat well.

Aloha Friday

Yesterday, The Mouse had a good day. Seems The Mouse’s new workplace has a policy of celebrating employees birthday with cake or lunch, and welcoming new employees. Two co-workers in The Mouse’s section had birthdays last month and The Mouse coming on board. Free lunch for The Mouse!

Vietnamese food. The section wanted pho. Too hot (temperature) for The Mouse, it is Summer after all.

Lemongrass Chicken Banh Mi Sandwich

Sandwich came with shrimp chips (yum) and a small bowl of broth (yum). Too bad there was no option for pate. Can’t complain, free lunch. Hee hee.

Dentist appointment today.

Enjoy. Eat well.

Kamaboko Sandwich

Small-kid time, hanabata days, one of The Mouse’s favorite sandwiches. Japanese steamed fishcake, kamaboko.

Kamaboko Sandwich

Last night’s dinner, kamaboko slices, Napa cabbage, molasses bread, mayonnaise. Nom!

Back small-kid time though, the sandwich would have been white bread, Wonder Bread if possible, and there would be no greens, just mayo and kamaboko.

The kamaboko comes on wooden “pallets”, after finishing the kamaboko, we would use the pieces of wood to build “stuff” for our toy cars.

The Kamaboko, on Pallet

Seems like the fishcake are all red now, used to come in green too. Green was The Mouse’s favorite. 🙂

Ahh, the simpler life. Hee hee.

Enjoy. Eat well.
