I went to the Chinese grocery store to stock up on snacks for our vacay... Yeah I might have over did it a bit.
BAHAHAHAHAHA.
When the lady handed me my reusable shopping tote w/ my snacks in it.. she called me a "Xia Mei Mei" which literally translate into "Little Girl"
My mom started cracking up and said that I was 30 & married!

Jojo heard a loud bang and ran to the window to inspect!
We found Bambi
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Is it just me or does Bambi seem more startled by us then we are of her even though he/she ran into our window.
AWWWWWW!
Jojo made a new friend!!
I was up late watching a movie until 3am and when I went back to my room I checked and Bambi was still sleeping right outside the window!
One of the snacks I miss most from Hawaii are Taro Chips!!
However when I moved back to the mainland I couldn't find them anywhere!
I recently found these at the Chinese grocery store... they taste JUST like the ones I use to eat in Hawaii
::CLAP CLAP::
So happy!!!
They're so good.. caveat is they're a tad salty.. I can only eat about 1/3 of the bag in one in sitting otherwise I sort of feel like my lips are blistering.
Worth it.
bahahahahaha

| Farmers Chips w/ Onion, Pimento & Goddess Dip & Pickled Seasonal Vegetables |
Yums!
Loved this.. I have a weakness for fresh made chips I can't help it!! Loved the dips.. the green "goddess" dip had tons of avocado and the "onion" was actually onion dip w/ chicken salad!!
It paired really well with the pickled veggies because they were really crisp and sour.. I love me good sour pickled veggies hehe it really balanced out the richness of the chips and dips!
 |
| Chicken, Waffles, String Beans w/ Candied Lemon & Mac & Cheese |
This was ONE entree.. yeah. I barely made a dent (it was SO DELICIOUS but very very rich and filling) when I got home I gave some of the chicken to my fur daughter and I still had enough for LUNCH & DINNER the next day.
WHAT THE EFFF'
HAHAHAHAHA.

Can I come over to eat?! It all looks so yummy especially the home made food - I don't get that kind of cooking at home :( And Lisa, how do you get your hair to look so amazing?!
ReplyDeletethat looks soooo good! and im going to head over to netaporter now :) hehe
ReplyDeleteDamn you and your delicious food pictures always! Every time I am done reading one of your posts, I end up raiding my kitchen cupboards, lol :-)
ReplyDeleteok, you are teasing me with all the good food!! i'm about to go to bed, but starting to feel hungry!!
ReplyDelete[oomph.]
I love eating vicariously through you since you have such good taste in irresistible food, especially the Taiwanese goodies.
ReplyDeleteYou also made me all nostalgic, I remember my mom and grandmother making dumplings from scratch in our kitchen when I was a kid. I was too busy running wild to pay enough attention though!
Wow, cool booties!

ReplyDeleteOoooh the food looks so yummy :) I really love the boots too, what a bargain!
ReplyDeleteWow, amazing shoes <3 :)

So lovely that you always score things at such great price.
ReplyDeleteIsn't it wonderful to spend lovely moments with your mum and to learn how to cook Chinese/Asian dishes? I would love some mother-bonding time like this too. Is your mum in the States too?
And aww... your hubz is just so cute. I've never used that video messaging software that you are using. The screen looks so big. Usually I use Skype. It's so cute of your hubz to draw that picture too.
And Bambi at your glass door! So sweet! I wished we have sweet little deer here too. Our last sighting of a deer in our heavily developed city was when a huge one ran onto the road and got knocked down. Before that for years, we never knew deer existed in our remnants of forests.
PS: I'm updating my Italy trip in parts and I've uploaded Venice with Lisa in mind. Hehehe...

It was lovely to spend such times with my parents. =)
Ah, thanx for explaining. No wonder you got to go to so many places. I always envy people living in Europe or in the States coz a road trip or a visit to another country is just a weekend affair.
To me, Venice was ok. I very much prefer Florence and Rome.
Wow, you have been up to so much! The MK boots look stunning! And how cute is that bambi? Your food pics are as always so tempting. Have a lovely weekend.
ReplyDeleteThe food looks so good and BAMBI!!!

All the food looks so good! I used to eat that peanut noodle a lot too, when I was little. Xiao long baos are definitely some of my favorite dumplings out there.
ReplyDeleteThis is kind of random, but after my friend watched Bambi as a toddler, she told her parents she wanted a Bambi, so they bought her a real deer.
Your food pictures ALWAYS make me jealous! Teach me how to make XLBs!! & love the booties you picked up!
ReplyDeleteThose MK booties are so badass...I'm too clumsy to wear such heels but I can't wait to see how you'll style them.
ReplyDeleteBambii!! Aww, that is the most precious thing ever. I grew up in upstate NY so I'm use to seeing deers and fawn but none ever came up to our house/window.
