All I have to do is take clothes out of the dryer and Penelope will come running and take a flying leap onto the bed so I can dump the warm, fluffy clothes on her.  She makes such cute doggie sounds of contentment.

The other day, after an early dental checkup, we decided to try Cafe Lani at the Mall again.  We've been there about four times, usually for breakfast, and were  never satisfied, but it was open and...
Service was still not great.  The siphon coffee and pastries were good.  (It's about$8.00 for the bottomless coffee and pastries service).   I wanted the poached egg since it's not easy to find, aside from the Benedicts, but it came in a jar on top of mashed potatoes.
There were also roasted potatoes, limp, overly browned mushrooms and toast.
I guess we won't go back unless we really have to.

At naginata practice on saturday, we said goodbye to a student who will be going to the mainland for college.
Sensei was wondering if she should jump up to be a bit more level with her.

We like light dinners.
At Ruscello's, on the third floor in Nordstrom we shared the crispy Calamari and Mediterranean Hummus.

The Mediterranean Hummus is the same as the one we always order at The Habitant on the second floor. Usually with their Ahi Poke.

Resting during a walk in the Mall.
Her tail is always between her legs because it's very noisy on the street level.  She keeps wanting to turn and head back to the parked car.
