Weekend Report: Optimus Prime Tie

Food this weekend ->
Susanna picked up some JoJo's Pizzas: Jojo's Special and Combination.  It's OK.  Not a big fan of the pizza.  The dough needed to be more firm.

Tried out a new Moon Cake with lotus paste, 2 egg yolks, and abolone!  It was abit expensive because of the abalone, but it was pretty good.  The abalone was dried and chewy, but not bad.  Good for a 1 time treat.  No pic.  By the time I got to it, there were only 2 slices left.

I got some mussels from Farmboy this weekend and made them with some Korean red pepper paste, green beans, garlic, and shitake mushrooms.

I should have chopped up the shitake mushrooms instead of sliced them so it can get inside of the mussels.  I forgot to add some chopped onions too.  Other than that it was really good.

I used the leftover broth to make some tofu noodles from T&T.  The tofu noodles are not that good.  It doesn't absorb any broth and doesn't really untangle very well at all.  Won't be buying that again.

Useless Gaming News:
Did some gaming at Brian's house on Friday.  We played Lewis & Clark.  It was an OK worker placement game.  Ben won.

Lewis & Clark.

We also played Archer: the Danger Zone Board Game, Get Lucky, and Flash Point.  I was surprised with Archer.  That game turned out to be simple and super fun.  Probably be better if I watched more than 2 episodes of the show.

Useless Transformers News:
Got another 2 ties from Japan.  These were Optimus Prime ties.

Got one for me and one for Ben as a belated Birthday present.  I should have gotten a Megatron tie too, but I think they are all sold out now on HLJ.
