strawberry season!

Strawberries are in season, and not only do u see the fruit section at the mart filled with plump, red & juicy strawberries, our favourite snack & sweets section has a whole range of limited period strawberry flavoured snacks.
I was so excited to see so many different kinds of strawberry ice creams!
stocked up on strawberry cheesecake bar, chocolate coated strawberry ice cream tiny bites, strawberry garigari( shaved ice like ice cream).
And when J saw his favourite pudding come up with the strawberry edition too,
we just had to give it a try!
looks so pretty isnt it? like one of those toys i used to play as a girl.

Lunch was
prawns & eringi mushrooms pasta
Just when J thought, how come todays spaghetti is so fat, he realised it is hollow =)
yup, they are like tubes, but in spaghetti length. interesting eh?

Dinner was western done japanese style
grilled burdock burger, oven baked fries, salt simmered vegetables, and tofu salad
burger topped with grated daikon, topped with shiitake teriyaki sauce

adding strips of burdock into the patty really really ups the volume of the burger, and i really love the combination of the crunchy burdock in the juicy beef patty.
some days i really crave fries and since i am supposed to keep my fried foods intake low. the only way to have the same yummy fries, is to oven bake them so i get to enjoy my potato madness =)
