we're having cold sesame noodles tonight, in a semi-spicy peanut/sesame
sauce, topped with cilantro (i love the stuff), cucumber, scallions,
and peanuts. along with it, we're having baked marinated tofu. and a
bowl of honeyde melon. oh yeah, and i picked up some sushi at the
gourmet market for an appetizer: spicy tuna roll, spicy shrimp roll,
california roll, and nigiri bbq eel.

my daughter, who is 9, has come to like sushi recently. it used to be
that she liked california roll but nothing else....she's now venturing
into the real thing and she helped me pickout the 2 spicy rolls.
another newly-acquired taste!

my boyfriend didn;t like sushi (or didn't think he liked sushi,
anyways), but he's learning about it now and when it's his turn to pick
restaurants, he's now the one who suggests the all-you-can-eat sushi
bar every time. he's getting adventurous, too. last time we shared the
big boat for 2, which had all sorts of sushi and sashimi. he even ate
the octopus! (personally, not my favorite)

And for dessert.....well, we have this endless granola-topped peach pie
that i baked on Sunday that seems to be lasting us a long time. i think
tonight will be the end of it.

wow, now i'm looking forward to dinnertime even MORE!
