今日もしぶいケンパー家の食卓。割干し大根の煮物、初めて、ついに買ってみた湯葉みたいな、揚げた豆腐とチンゲンサイの中華いため、ごぼうのサラダ2種(ごま、マスタード)と、黒豆にごはんと、トマト風味の野菜スープ。野菜スープにヤム芋入れたら、おいし〜♡

image

これがいつも気になってた子。食感はやっぱり湯葉みたいな感じ。でもやっぱり揚げてあるから油っこいので、一回お湯につけて油抜き。湯葉より簡単に使えて、食感ももっと噛みごたえがある感じ。また買お〜♡

Got another care package from my mom, she told me she didn’t send enough to be featured on blog, but too bad, I’m still posting it! Only the pic of sweets! Main thing she sent me was Jio’s first doll festival stuff, I haven’t opened it since I keep forgetting about it when she’s awake! I won’t open without her! Anyways, this is the one we ate today!

Very simple, but very good. Thank you, Haha(I call my mom that)!!

Yes. this was my lunch.

Since I have a check up at clinic the next day, I thought to try to fill my tummy with salad, so I made seaweed salad and made my own dressing. But, I didn’t realize how much I had made :P

I ended up saving salad for later, but totally finished the rest, because you can’t save those for later!

And, I had my craving filled for Korean food. I think my last Korean meal was in September, and it wasn’t Madangsui that I love! Their Healthy Bibmbap (salad bibimbap) is so good! and we always get them with tofu jigae, soondoubu? I can’t spell.

image

I like to put all the little dishes in my healthy bibimbap in addition!

image

numnumnum.

Then I became soooo badddddd. But I had been waiting for these all day long, and skipped all my cravings for sweets, though I did eat sweet potatoes as always!

Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.

Vegan Boston Cream Pieeeeeeee.

Oh My God. I felt so so so happy. And some others I had sampled! thank you, Whitney! for getting the brilliant idea of convincing his coworkers to get the dunwell donuts for a coworker’s birthday and bring them home for ME! :) hee hee

I did gain 4 pounds the next day, when I got weighed at the clinic. Assignment for next checkup. ughhhhh.

I’m alomost finished with the first bottle of the Madhava agave nectar light I got at Whole Foods(about $7 on sale), so I ordered more($5.57 on Vitacost,com)! This time with Amber too. I’m getting a hang of using agave in my Japanese cooking finally!

I just use half amount of what I would put for sugar, supposedly you can use 2/3 tbsp of agave for 1tbsp of sugar, but I like to cut in half.

And I really like this bottle better than the other agave I have used, it doesn’t get too messy and easily control how much I wanna squeeze out. :)

Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh myyyyyyyyyy Gawwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwd

It was AMAZING!!!!!!! I had been craving brownie, but I knew I couldn’t make it sweet enough to satisfy me if I make my own, because I’m a chicken when it comes to sugar amount in my baking :P But the packaged vegan brownie was $4 for a piece, so I didn’t buy it.

Then I found this at Whole Foods at 2nd Ave! Only $1.99! It’s pretty big and looked super yummy, and, it WAS super yummy! It’s dangerous how convenient it is that we can get this at Whole Foods on 2nd Ave. I love love love this brownie, recommend!!!

It’s super dangerous… but they don’t always have it, so, I guess Whitney just have to get it everytime they have it! It would be our lucky day! Ahhh I can’t tell you enough how much I liked this! Whitney, puuuuuuuuuuweeeeeeze feed me these when we are going insane with a newborn baby in the near future!

image

Weeeeelll, we just happened to have bought almond ice cream even before we found the brownie! So we toasted the brownie and topped it with it :6

image

Good ingredients! It’s not a mile long either, love it! :)

Definitely having crazy monstrous appetite.

  • 2 Veggie Chili dog with daiya chedder cheese (toppings added after: sauerkraut, yellow mustard, dijon mustard, Frank’s hot sauce)
  • Vegan Buffalo wings
  • Chick pea salad
  • Veggie soup

I ate the exact same meal for lunch on tuesday, was way too much! Well, I had extra chili too, that didn’t help :P

And the dessert from my mommy! Nagoya special Uirou, so good! We shared half of each green tea one, and red bean paste one! Look hoe cute their package is!

image

This is what they look like inside, yummy! Whitney said he likes Uirou even better than youkan! Too bad you can only get those in our area, I think!
