HAPPY CHRISTMAS!
RIP Kazamidori
Teppan Kazamidori was our fav Izakaya in Torrance, CA. Where else (in Torrance) could you get grilled bacon-wrapped asparagus, different choices for yakitori/teppan "tapas" along with a cold Kirin Ichiban! Mmmmm… Kirin and bacon-wrapped asparagus.
Anyway, we were craving it when we were driving home from Mammoth Lakes, then last week, then yesterday when we finally were about to set a reservation and found out it was closed! My sis and I didn't believe the person on the other line so we decided to visit the place and it was indeed gone. So yah… RIP.
In other news, we've made great progress around the house… cleaning-wise. We've got our loverly tree up, too. ^_^
In case I forget to login on Monday evening…. Happy Christmas!
DVD storage woes…
I think I have over 200 DVDs in my collection (in that link, it says I have 187 but I haven't updated it in a few months and I've bought/received quite a bit of DVDs by then!) Anyway, I have 2 DVD tower holders. One is a rather nice design (has a bit of style) and the other is your run-of-the-mill MDF-and-metal-storage tower. Combined capacity is 150 DVDs. The rest are spilled either on top or on stacked the floor >_<
My sis doesn't want me to get any more of the 'modern' looking DVD storage towers cos it really clashes with the living room furniture (think old world/ornate French-style light-coloured wood). So when I took the day off today to do a bit of cleaning before the holidays, I literally just sat on my bum, surfing the web for an hour searching for a DVD cabinet! I have yet to find one… Pah!
Visit MyMiniCity…
Lovely mini-break!
My sis, Herman, Buzz and I returned from our weekend-long Mammoth trip last night! Sharon, Joel, Nathan, Lauren and Meilyn (sp?) went home on another vehicle and as much as I tried to catch up with them on the motorway, they were driving too fast for me! ^_^
The conditions were wonderful (considering it was only the first week of December). Sure the trees can be covered with a lot more snow but the runs that we snowboarded on were absolutely great — it was even snowing whilst we were boarding. It also helped that it snowed a few days before up until Friday evening (when we drove up).
One drawback though — I was only able to go snowboarding for a day! I'm soooooo out of shape >_< We're going back in January and I'm definitely picking up some weights and doing cardio from now until then.
Oh and we went sledding the next day with the kids! ^_^ LOL! I got a snow skate on Friday and rode it down the incline we made for sledding. It was pretty neat except for the part where you try it on a small ramp. Hehehe…. wipe out. Photos to follow soon!
A totally random site
Since I've dropped (months ago) the "Random sites of the week" or however I worded it, I thought of just posting, on a random day (i.e., whenever I can) a random site!
Today it's a site called Symbaloo… There's summat about it that's quite accessible — it's a portal and maybe because it somewhat resembles the iPhone shortcut page… It might load a bit slow for you IE 6 users… soz!
Anyway, check it out and enjoy:
p.s.,
Check out the site's news section.
