Bent my wallet for anniversary ‘Corona To-Go’ dinner for the family at early in the month – This plate made me realize good sushi is made with a bit of aging and wasabi-on-the-rice ๐Ÿ™‚ which I came to forget with ‘regular’ sushi in streets..

Curious to find the shrimp chips at Costco and it is even saying Butter and Garlic.. thought this is so Korean and then actually found out this is manufactured in Korea at the bottom of the backside. So gave it a try with a little bit of trust, and this thing didn’t turned back my trust and became one of the best chips ever from Costco… ๐Ÿ™‚

So pumped to taste this back! ๐Ÿ™‚ This was one thing I have looked around to get the taste again since 2005 as I have an emotional tie ofย  this with “Lonely dorm life in hot (in Summer) and cold (in Winter) days at Ames, Iowa from 1997 to 1998”

Anyhow, this soda was reintroduced after some hardcore fan’s movement aka “Surge Movement” and Coca Cola made it available from Amazon about 5 years ago…and finally.. I made a bold order recently and this just arrived at the day Red flag/Heat advisory went effective.

Still refreshing! (and my brain memory of ‘more citrus and less sugar than Mt. Dew” seems about right ๐Ÿ™‚

Thank you Coca Cola!

Annual or Bi-annual crazy oyster eating day..

Well I do understand, the farm needs to run the business for profit purpose, but I do miss the old days when everyone was welcome to do the charcoal grill and freely eat at open tables next to the shop. (Now, those tables are closed ‘restaurant table’ area and you cannot do the grilling at all)

This is another movie of stunning graphics with crazy idea of rock climbing without any tools. (Now I learned that is what ‘Free Solo’ means.. – originally thought like “Free the people or group called ‘Solo’?”) A gentleman determined to climb El Capitan all by hands and legs only. So whenever he makes a move, it touched my nerve.

This movie was one of the wish list of our little one, and now he wishes to go to Yosemite in this Summer – but California is mentioned on daily basis in the news for virus epic center…so not sure how to think about/deal with…
