The Mission-north Park

I went to The Mission. That was yummy! but that was so big!

Hand mixer

Finally I bought a hand mixer. I made strawberry ice cream!
Oops!! I used raw eggs but we ate it anyway.
It was so delicious and we were ok :)
I needed to buy pasteurized eggs.

Japanese eat raw eggs. We can get edible raw eggs at any store.
The pasteurization methods of the U.S and Japan are different.

Heven Sent

I don't know why... I was craving chocolate so bad last night.
Then we went to Heaven Sent Dessert.

I ordered "Irish Angel".
Wow Wow Wow!!! The taste was much better than I expected!!
Of course I was in Heaven :)

Texas Style French Toast

Another of my favorite breakfast places is "Ricky's".

They have awesome apple pancake but I like their Texas style french toast :)

Herb Roast beef

Cold Zucchini Soup

This is good for hot summer day.

2 1/2 Zucchini
1/2 onion
about 2 cup milk
1 tbs butter
2 tbs olive oil
salt and pepper

Gratin Dish

I went to La Mesa Village. I found gratin dishes at an antique shop.

I was looking for an individual casserole dish!

This one was $3.95. Is this expensive or a good deal?? I thought It was a good deal :) so I bought 2 of them but I should have bought 5.

Of course dinner was gratin!

Red & White Salad

I think this is a very basic Italian salad.
Tomato and Mozzarella cheese make beautiful colors.
I topped with arugula but If I had fresh basil I would have used it.

Vinegarettes
1/2 lemon juiced
1 tbs salt
pinch of black pepper
2 tbs olive oil
1 tbs minced basil
(I used frozen minced basil)

I made that dish in ceramic class.
