Chinese food and a Chinese baby...

Today Emma and Evie and I went to have some Chinese food at City Buffet.
Emma's husband Chris is the head sushi chef and he also cooks on the hibachi!! We get the best and freshest California roll you can get!
~
If you haven't tried a california roll yet, get out there and find one ASAP!
A California roll is delicious, filled with pickled daikon radish, avocado and cucumber, wrapped with nori and then sticky rice...Chris makes the best, if I do say so myself and he uses tons of vegetables in all of his sushi too, not just the vegan ones!

Here is Chris diligently preparing rice balls for the dinner service. He hand molds all of his decorative sushi and then slivers the vegetables over it in an array of colors and flavors!

When we arrived Chris told us he had run out of nori wraps and could not make our rolls. So sad, but he did make me a delicious stirfry vegetable dish with green pepper, bean sprouts, celery and carrot, mushrooms and zucchini in a spicy garlic and pepper sauce!
Super tasty and totally vegan! He even cuts the oil in half for me!
(incidentally, I took a picture of my lunch with my phone and sent it to my friend and forgot to take one for my blog....duh!)

After we finished our lunch, we headed over to Wal-Mart to pick up some boxes to finish wrapping presents.

Emma got Evie all dressed up!
Evie is 2 weeks old! Isn't she cute!
~
We had a spit up incident and had to change her cloths, but she was happy about it.
Silly little baby! She is totally asleep in the cart at Wal-Mart...
Still totally asleep, I am hoping that since she smiles so much in her dreams we are doing an ok job so far.

Hoping you enjoy your evening
XOXO

they say that when babies laugh and smile while they are asleep they are actually talking to God and the angels...she is a precious child of God. LOVELY.
