Special fried rice

Pretty good, beef, shrimp and chicken with just a touch of pepper.

Eggplant Lasagna

A little bland, and the portion was a tad small. For a vegitarian lasagna it was still pretty good.e

Autographs on every wall, see?

Any store that carries Pocky is ok by me.

Central Market, Shoreline, WA

Teamwork needed...

See, if these guys would just work togeather they could make a break over the wall...

This is a Holland pancake.

I actually had these IN Holland and they were no where near as good. You eat them with powdered sugar and lemon juice.

This is Cindy's House of Pancakes

They make the best pancakes in the world. Holland Baby pancakes are awesome. I'll send a pic of it when I get it.

My grandfather had a great time.

Singing take me out to the ballgame, pounding me on the back when we got a home run. So glad we came!

We're waiting so long to get out of the garage...

..that some kids started a baseball game on the roof =).

Watching the Mariners play the Tigers in the nicest park in the country.

For all your Hello Kitty needs...

"character goods, hello kitty-ty, car accessory, hair accessory/product, cell phone accessories, etc..."

My mom loves shopping for the fish.

"No head", "No tail", "Be sure and skin it".

=)

Yay!

They had it hidden away in a corner...

Well I'm bummed...

They only have strawberry and mango Calpico Water, no regular =(.

Asian Market

This is an all-asian market about 10 miles from our house. The place just reeks of fish, but you can get nifty things like Calpico Water and Pocky here. My mom loves it for the fresh fruit and seafood.

My mom takes photos as a professional.

I'll put up a link to her website after I update it.

Stuffed salmon (with crab and shrimp)

Beats the doughnuts I had for lunch =P.

My grandfather an me.

Just realied I didn't have a picture of me on here, so here's me and my grandpa at the resteraunt tonight.

This is Craig the waiter.

He's just awesome, always remembers us and gives great service. My mom thinks he looks like Harrison Ford.

McCormick and Schmick's

We are having dinner at this harborside resteraunt with a bunch of family from New York. I 've never met any of them, but you can tell by the accent who is in our party =).

My grandfather asked me to post a pic of the mountains.

So here it is...

The pealla was awesome!

Here's Chuck bringing in his piece de reistance. Goodness this was yummy. Apparently he cooked because... Well, you can see on that last shot.

July 4th at the Halsteads

This is Chuch Halstead, a friend of my mother's. He's cooking us paella (which is sort of a fish and chicken thingy). We took a ferry out to Bambridge Island, but I think I'm going to take the freeway back tonight.

By the way, Tieatro Zenzani was interesting, but not my cup of tea. And I didn't post any pictures because there were no cameras and such allowed inside.

Anyhoo, I'll try and get some pics of the fireworks tonight, but so far I am not too impressed with the camera on this thing.

So this is the Halsteads house.

This is the house (and my car on the left).

The second photo is my mom and aunt in their kitchen.

Finally, the view off their porch. The fireworks are gonna be on the lake out there.

Tietro Zenzani

So here we are at Tietro Zenzani, like my mom's favorite place to go for dinner. This is just the lobby. My grandfater was stricken by boa by my cousin Erica, amused as heck as you can see.

This is a caberet kind of thing, so we'll se how it is. This camera doesn't seem to behave to well in low light, I'm still learning.

I'll see what kind of shots I can take when the "show" starts...

Isn't this an exciting blog1

Jebus, I just can't get the creative juices flowing the last few days. I swear, I'll at least post a link to my old sidekick blog so you can see that I had the ability to write at one point in my life.

So anyway, at Aaron Brothers with my mom. Enthralling, huh? I'm gonna win an award for this blog.

Anthony's Home Port

We wound up being late for this resteraunt, but it's still a nice place. So we're waiting for a table. This is a picture of my aunt and my grandpa. Anyway, we're seating now, so I'm going to post this and tell you about the meal later.

At the airport...

Man, the creative juices aren't flowing as well as they did on my last blog attempt. I had verbose and articulate rants and prose on that one. I can't even come up with clever tag lines right now.

One nifty thing I just noticed, when you type in "ev" on Windows Mobile it autofills "everquest" =)

(Wheb you type in "wo" you don't get World of Warcraft though).
