Japanese Night

After putting some gruelling hours in Scuba at Sport Chalet this morning, I've got a hankering for some good sushi and since the Japanese Grocery store is close to my house, we stopped by to get some stuff for a Japanese Food Night.


Mike was craving a Tsunomono salad that we had at Oshima Sushi just a couple of months ago.  It's composed of tuna and another type of fish.  He made the salad... it was yummy!
See the chunks of tuna and to make it more healthier, Mike added some Tofu to the mix as well.  He got his salad, but I wanted spicy tuna and the sauce for the spicy tuna calls for Japanese Mayo and chili.  I don't have Japanese Mayo so, I went and bought Japanese mayo.  It's really funny how it's packaged and what's more crazy is that it has to be consumed in 30 days after opening.
Of course, with any Japanese food, we needed to buy some masago and tobiko.  What's even more crazier is that they have wasabi tobiko!  It may look green...but it tastes great!
Here's our set-up for dinner.  It's make your own sushi night!!

Looking for a recipe....

for "healthy" or I guess...healthier spinach and artichoke dip. Any suggestions?

Today is Day 10 of the Master Cleanse, I did it!

I am planning on baking up a storm this Xmas! First up? Pumpkin cupcakes with cream cheese frosting for Turkey Day!

Got my New Moon Tickets! Midnight release? Really...I'm too old for this stuff.

My sparkly skull came in the mail yesterday and it is awesome.

I caved and turned on the Xmas music, and also peeked at the Black Friday ads...cheeter pants! I did not, however, get out the decorations.

I have been stuck on the same lame book for over a week. Just....cant....finish....

Dad should be on his way to a rehab center now.

The ambulance/cab was supposed to get there at 4:00 (an hour ago), but I haven't heard anything yet.

He was sitting up in a chair last night when I visited, and he's staying comfortable and seems to be in good spirits.

And not going home gives him a few more days where, for at least part of the time, he doesn't have mother breathing down his neck...

Slightly Bitter Satisfied Customer

My stove door front fell off 14 months after buying it.  It was a Sears Kenmore product, I have bought Kenmore products in the past and have had no problems with them, until this electric stove.  What an adventure trying to talk to someone at Sears to get my stove fixed.  The first two days were spent trying to talk to the store manager , lets see, first he just stepped out he will be back in fifteen minutes, I said I would call back.  Next call, sorry he is out on the floor ( I was thinking maybe someone should try and wake him up).  Next call, sorry he is in a meeting, can I have him call you back, yes, never heard from him!  I wait a day still no call.  Next day I call again,  sorry he is in a meeting, can I have him call you, no, I would like the number for the Sears regional office, sorry we don't have that number (sure right).  Would you like to speak with manager in the appliance department, sure, thank you.  Hello How may I help you.  I explain how stove fell apart.  You will have to call the service department.  No, because I'm not going to pay for fixing a stove that falls apart after 14 months.  Sorry but your stove is out of warranty, I realize this but a stove should not fall apart after 14 months of minimal use.  If this stove is not fixed to my satisfaction I promise you I will never buy from sears again, I have been a loyal sears customer for over forty years.  I'm sorry there is nothing I can do You will have to call the service department.  I call service department, we are sorry your stove is out of warranty we will be glad to send a repairman out to fix it.  No, I'm not paying for a stove that falls apart after only 14 months.  Were sorry you feel that way, click.  Call Department manager back again, he promises he will find something out and call me back later, next day I was still waiting.  I called him back, oh sorry the service department was supposed to call you, you need to talk with them directly, but I have already talked with them I know what they are going to say, but ok I'll call again.  I call service department, same run around , ask to speak to a higher up, put on hold for over 15 minutes, while on hold get a call back from department manager asking me if he sent me a gift certificate for over the cost of the part I needed to fix the stove if that would be satisfactory, I thanked him for taking care of the matter and said I would accept it.  Now, if the gift certificate comes in the mail I will buy the part and fix the stove, but I shall remain a slightly bitter satisfied customer.  Customer service has become customer aggravation!
