Poor Confused Girl

Hubby and I were somewhere on Martin Luther King Way.  We stopped into Wendy’s for a quick lunch of chili and a side salad. He ordered his salad and blue cheese dressing. No problem.

Me: I’ll have a side salad with ranch dressing

Cashier: Um. *totally confused look on her face* Let me tell you our salad dressings. We have blue cheese, Italian, and honey mustard, French dressing, and creamy ranch.

She was dead serious. It was too funny. Hubby and I laughed out loud.

Love Notes from Uwajimaya

 The other day I found this little cookie fortune in my box of green tea… I thought how sweet… hubby left this to let me know I’m domestically inclined and  we will be happily married LOL

Oh by the way, I did find a new green tea. It’s a jasmine green tea. Mmmmm! We went shopping at the Seattle Uwajimaya store. I generally shop a smaller asian grocery store, but it’s fun to browse the larger stores every once in awhile. 

Uwajimaya has a fresh seafood department. I’m talking fresh. We watched the fish swimming around in the big tanks. Hubby even took some pictures of some of them. While hubby was taking a photo, a woman walked up and placed her order. She chose her fish… the fishmonger used his net to catch the thing… poor thing, didn’t even know what was happening. One minute he’s happy as a clam… swimming around without a care, next thing ya know he’s taken out of the water, gasping for air… gasping for water,  bonked on the head… laid out on the table, sliced open and gutted, cut into fillets, wrapped up, and handed over to the happy little chef. Such is the life of a fish…

Green Tea

I love the quiet evenings and mornings, when the family is all in bed, and it’s just me. I light some candles, then I brew a cup of tea and sit quietly in my living room. It gives me time to think.

I generally have a cup or two of black tea…. maybe an herbal blend every once in awhile. This past week I decided to try green tea. I like it. It might not be the real stuff… since I bought the lipton brand of green tea. I’ve had several cups and I really like it. I’m going to look for an authentic green tea. This could be my new favorite drink.

Okay, I’m off to enjoy my quiet time.
