hot dog buns, pork buns, and egg custards—things that are making me FAT. with my recent weight gain hanging over my head i decided to reflect on my eating habits. to my horror this is what i ate in a course of a week:

things i consumed for breakfast or lunch
4 hot dog buns
1 pork bun
1 onion roll
2 dinner rolls
5/6 coconut custard treats
5/6 egg custard treats
2 donuts
2 piroskies
1 bagel

and that's only counting the stuff i actually remember. this list doesn't include dinner items which is mostly pasta, rice, kimchi. not all together. damn those chinese bakeries and their delicious goodies. i can't even walk down clement street without hearing them call my name. tempting me with their magical baked goodness. seeing the pink bags in the hands of every one that passes. i want to eat them all. will the inner richmond prove to be my downfall? will i consume so many pastries that my waist goes up 4 notches? only time will tell.

stay gold & be well…

me and my charms [string version]

tour vans, a panda, and me—things found on geary street in the afternoon. since i have far too much time on my hand i've noticed my smoking habit has increased. my building is a smoke free zone which means i must go down five flights and hit the street every time i want a smoke. usually around early afternoon i can be found on the street puffing away. while out there i've been noticing these white tour vans of sorts on a regular basis. they are filled with asian passengers and they are always heading for the same place: panda country kitchen. this place must be magical if they are coming by the van load. it's literally right next store but i have yet to check it out. after seeing the van loads of people going in its definitely peeked my interest. i found their menu online. it's broken down into three categories: special menu, menu 1, menu 2. all the items found on the special menu & menu 1 seem pretty standard and sound delicious. i want to try them all. the more interesting dishes appear on menu 2 with such things as: panda country bear feet, phoenix pork kidney flower, live fish with home made pickle vegetable, frog leg with fresh home made pepper, etc. now i definitely need to check this place out and soon. if any of you want to tag along let me know. i'm sure it'll be a dining experience.
