Bento Split

Mini Shabu gets only 20 minutes of nutrition break, so I try not to get too ambitious.  I split a balanced meal between 2 boxes, one for each break.  And I just make up at home what he can't have in school, considering the school don't provide refridgerators and microwave ovens for kids use.

spam musubi, banana, pudding with sprinkles

fish tofu, carrot sticks, croissant slices, cut Pogo hotdog, apple sauce

pandesal bread, hotdogs, grape tomatoes, cheese string, banana

quail eggs, broccoli, mushrooms, cheese sandwich, cheese cubes

kiwi, car-shaped cheese, carrots & dip, jam sandwich, black mushroom

Note to self... no need to pack juice box everyday.


Häagen-Dazs

They'll go as low as $2.88, usually 3 for $10. Regular price is $6 and up.
My favourite: coffee, caramel explosion and strawberry

Tretorn is Back?


I am so surprised to see Marshalls selling Tretorn sneakers. It used to be our P.E. sneakers.

Are they back?

Gamjatang


We don't mind trekking eastward to Markham to eat. On this trip, the target was Korean for Gamjatang (Spicy Pork Bone Soup). There's quite a selection at First Markham Place. We picked Nak Won as the restaurant is more spacious than the other Korean places in the vicinity. I love the display of fake dishes on their window. Reminds me of Japan.

It was raining.


This is the actual banchan which Mini Shabu Shabu attacked plate after plate, except for the kimchi.

It was so good to the last drop.

Shrimp & Mango Roll


Shrimp & Mango Roll with mayonnaise. It's so good. I remember my Mom would make them at home. My Mom could make anything. Now I could just go to Ocean's Pacific Rim, if I want it.

Crocs Sale

This post is long overdue. Crocs had a clearance sale of their old stock - $15 for adult Crocs & $10 for kids Crocs. Here's our loot.

Someone's too excited with his.
