Not me, my lazy Laptop

I've been busy these days - behinds on updating my blog.....I am going to try my best to bring you all up to date.
I went to this Japanese restaurant with Penn's family few weeks ago at Old Town Pasadena. This place is one of our favoriate family lunch place.  Very authentic food, friendly staffs, and most importanlty this is one of the few places Samuel is willing to sit still allowing us to have lunch
They always display daily speical - they all seem yummy.  However, we always order the same thing....
Calpico water - this is my favoriate drink since I was a little girl. Oh- this always made good cocktail, just put in some vodka
SmallN & I both ordered combo:  half Katsudon & half udon soup.  Udon is chewy, and Katsudon rice is tasty- I think the secrect is in the sauce...
Steve ordered Curry rice - it looks good, too.
Samuel had his favoriate Beef don
The little guy was please with the food -becuase he started to entertain us (Of course after his meal and 2 minutes time-out in the restroom with SmallN)

I went to NBA game on Saturday night  - Lakers vs. Cliper at Staple Center.
 
My group has a suite at Staple Center mostly for clients entertainments.  From time to time, there would be some open slots-  since I sit close by my boss & the project manager who distrbutes tickets- I would often get free tickets .   I am not the big sport fan, but do enjoy watching the game once awhile - especially in the suite setting with tons of food & drink. 
The game started at 7:30pm.  I left home a bit after 6pm and planned to arrive before the game to hang out at AMEX arena club........Well, I was super lost and stuck in traffic.  By the time I arrived around 8pm at the suite - Half of my co-workers there were already at alcohol happy mood .  Don't worry - I quickly caught up with them.........The suite is nice  - couches, little bar area, and then extend out to small areana balcony sitting for about 12 people (sorry I didn't take pictures - next time)
The best part (for the non sporty me) is the Dessert Cart !! - tons of pastries to choose from:  Chocolate Cake, brownies, cheesecake, cookies, and etc.....
We all had a wonderful time -not sure if it's the effect of alchol, sugar or excitment of NBA game.
I wasn't quite following the game.....I just knew Lakers won. 

If you get sweet tooth and like Oreo cookies, I would recommond you check out "Joe -Joe's Candy Cane cookie" from Trader Joe's.
I think it has a cutiest name "Joe-Joe".  It tastes almost like oreo excepts it isn't as sweet as oreo and also has candy cane peppermint flavor.   This is a perfect cookie for Christmas season.  Go check it out!  It also comes with other flaovrs such as "peanut butter"
Lots of sweet during this Thanksgiving weekend.......
We received this mochi gift- freshly made from Japan. Big uncle picked it up from Tokoyo airport on his way to California.  The wrapping is really cute, Japanese knows how to make an attractive pacakge.
It's so color.  Mochi's tasted soft and chewy.  The orange & green pieces have citrus flavor - quite refreshing.   Well, after tasting different type of mochi here, my favoriate is still that Taiwanese street vendor's mochi - no fancy package nor coloring - just simply wrap in pastic bag with tons peanut power & sugar....yummy

Yummy Guava Fruit Rolls from Trader Joe
It does taste like real guava flavor.  It's perfect when you have that little craving for sweet. Mom likes it, too.
MAX Factor Lash Perfection Mascara
I saw the recommendation of MaxFactor mascara  in one of smalln's blogger.  This is cheap and good.  It's easy to apply and not messy.  I wore it today and didn't smudge.

 
Can you guess who's art work is this?
Does this picutre remind you of Olivia in Popeye?
We can sometimes tell one's inner self by looking at his or her drawing.  My conclusion of this artist is childlike heart, young mind, joyful and likes "mushroom" hair style and lace clothes.....
and This person is ..........
Mom....
Mom is so cute - can you beleive this is an art work of a grandmom?
