I met the hubby for lunch on this glorious sunny day in London. He took me to an Italian deli that serves amazing sandwiches. We had the spicy salami and gruyere cheese sandwhich. Holy cheeseballs! So delicious :-D

Crispy bread, gooey cheese, spicy meat.. what more could you want out of a sandwich!

I also made him stop by Wasabi for some green tea ice cream. The cup was so tiny but it definitely hit the dessert spot!

New World Dim Sum

Italian style chicken nuggets!

a little snack before heading off to dim sum for a friend's bday.

The food looks delicious but to be honest it wasn't all that great. I'm surprised it got 3 1/2 reviews!

After lunch we went to Midnite cookies to honor a groupon T recently purchased for me. We got 3 cookies, a brownie and two shakes. These cookies were the softest, chewiest, most delicious cookies I've had in a reallllllllyyyyy long time. SO GOOD!! I'm already thinking about when we can go back..

Strawberry and chocolate milkshakes

Sunday afternoon playtime w. the Nomes.

The luuurve of my life!

Pizza and Scream 3 for dinner

Breakfast and Zumba! Getting ready for my first teaching gig this Friday.

I also went running outside for about 30 minutes.I was planning on doing my Cto5K Iphone application since I hadn't been running in a few months but turns out I didn't need it. I kept on running after the first 1 minute. :) Woo Hoo! I'm back!! Nonetheless, I really recommend this type of program for non-runners.

Italia!

I'm not sure if this fryer was such a good idears....

On second thought.. maybe it was! I heart fried potatoes :)

Dinner was back at Ukai Sushi for round #2 with the hubby.

Eel tamaki roll

Salmon sashimi- so fresh and buttery. mmmmm...

Salmon and avocado maki

seafood udon

beef and mushrooms in overly salty sauce. The sauce would have been very tasty minus the overkill on the salt.

Veggie spring rolls. Perfectly crispy with sweet dipping soy sauce.

soft shell crab roll. This is the one time I would boycott frying anything. The fried outer seaweed was masking all the flavors inside the roll. Sad face :(

Dessert wasn't anything to complain about. We picked up a red velvet and sticky toffee pudding cupcake from Hummingbird on the way back home to pair with our Ben and Jerry's Fairly Nuts ice cream. We also continued our Scream marathon w. Scream 2. I don't think my hubs likes the triology thus far. ha! I don't really think I enjoy it that much either this time around... I hate getting old !

Fun fact: We're going to Milan next weekend!!! Amo l' Italia! Ciao Ciao!
