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

Char Siu Bun, Shui Mai, Ha Gaw, Chicken Feet, Pork Spareribs, Rice Noodles w/ Shrimp, Turnip Cake

Yummy Dim Sum!! 

HELL YES.

BEST INVENTION EVERRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!

Founding Farmers!

Hibiscus Soda

In-house made hibiscus soda it was like I was back in Hawaii!!

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.

#couldfeedafamilyoffour

Crab, Chicken Salad & Shrimp rolls w/ Chips
