<\/a>crunch <\/p><\/div>\n
No coffee for me this morning because I don’t like having coffee before seeing the dentist.\u00a0 I tried making peppermint tea but I didn’t care for it that early in the morning so it was bunk.\u00a0 Breakfast was super easy and simple.<\/p>\n
- \n
- 2% fage<\/li>\n
- Fruit and nut granola<\/li>\n
- Frozen raspberries<\/li>\n
- Cranberries<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
Then we were off!\u00a0 After the dentist we made a quick run to The Hills Market<\/a> because per my request they started carrying my version of crack. Isn’t that awesome of them?!<\/p>\n

<\/a>Crackity crack <\/p><\/div>\n
Hello Vanilla Almond butter!\u00a0 And look at the gigantic jar too!\u00a0 Sweet!\u00a0 I cannot wait to dig into some of that yummer stuff.\u00a0 After that we were off to pick up Lorelle and hit some place for lunch.\u00a0 She mentioned loving sushi and it doesn’t take much convincing to get Scott to head to Akai Hana so we saw that again this week.<\/p>\n
![\"First](\"http:\/\/foodembrace.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/05\/ohc-05-14-09_green_tea-300x225.jpg\" "\\"ohc-05-14-09_green_tea\\"")
<\/a>First time, mmmm<\/p><\/div>\n
First there was green tea which was very yummy and calming.\u00a0 I was a bit nervous at first since I had no sweetener, lemon, or any accompaniment.\u00a0 But after my first sip, I loved it and drank mine no problem.\u00a0 I started off with tempura veggies because I had never tried theirs before.<\/p>\n

<\/a>Is this healthy fried? Probably not.<\/p><\/div>\n
Not bad tempura.\u00a0 I had one piece of something that I have no idea what it was.\u00a0 It was almost flower shaped with a few holes around the perimeter.\u00a0 Then I had 1\/2 a slice of acorn squash and a small piece of a fried leaf.\u00a0 Lorelle said it looked like a grape leaf, but I again have no idea what that was.\u00a0 Lots of mystery foods today!<\/p>\n
![\"My](\"http:\/\/foodembrace.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/05\/ohc-05-14-09_udon-300x225.jpg\" "\\"ohc-05-14-09_udon\\"")
<\/a>My fave <\/p><\/div>\n
My main meal was yaki udon which is my super very favorite thing.\u00a0 I asked for extra veggies and the server asked how much.\u00a0 I said as much as you can.\u00a0 And then she said, “$1 worth, $2 worth, $3 worth?”\u00a0 I opted to go with the $2 worth of extra veggies this time around. :p\u00a0 I was a little bummed that the extra veggies really meant extra nappa cabbage.\u00a0 However, the serving was gigantic!\u00a0 I ate a good bit but you could hardly tell, I brought a lot home.<\/p>\n

<\/a>Mochi?<\/p><\/div>\n
Lorelle got us a serving of mochi.\u00a0 I had never had it before!\u00a0 Here’s my mochi.<\/p>\n

<\/a>Red bean sweetness <\/p><\/div>\n
And here’s the inside, or what you can see of it.\u00a0 I liked the redbean inside which was sweet and creamy but I didn’t care for the outer portion too much.\u00a0 It was too gummy. I picked out the protein and ate that.
After a while though it did get a little too sweet for me.\u00a0 You all know how I am with sweets.<\/p>\nAfter lunch we headed home and helped get Lorelle settled in.\u00a0 Then I took Rocks for a walk, my exercise for the day.\u00a0 Man I cannot wait to get back to running!<\/p>\n
