Vacation - Sushi Belt

On the way to the coast on Monday of vacation, we had to stop for lunch. Our destination? SushiLand in Clackamas. AKA the sushi belt. This is an amazing idea and I wish we had one here!
Below is the sight when you walk in...
Here is the menu - these were on the tables so you could find out how much each plate would cost, and also so you could tell what was what...
Here are some of the plates we got - salmon, eel, and california rolls. We had lots more, as you'll see further down...


The other very cool thing was that we were able to watch an entire salmon be filleted and deboned with amazing precision...here is the salmon before it produced many yummy pieces of sushi!



And this is the culmination of what Eric and I ate - just the front two piles. For both of us it cost around $20 - not a bad deal at all!

What a weekend...

Eric came to Lansing this weekend, and we started Friday night out with sushi. I left my camera home for this weekend. After the Thursday night fried food fest, I was just in the mood to have some sushi.

Saturday, we ran errands. Eric decided that we would go shop for my birthday present, which I told him that I wanted golf clubs and shoes. After a trip to Dick's Sporting Good in Okemos, the Pro Golf Discount store in Okemos, and the Golf Haus in Lansing, we decided to pick up the Wilson Hope set.






I also ended up with golf shoes!





That's right, those are argyle accents...

Now, time to just learn how to play golf! We also both ended up buying bowling shoes, since we're on a league that plays at Royal Scot every other week until April. Before bowling league, we went with Runs with Spatula and Corky to dinner at Ukai West. Again, no pictures from me, but it was day two of sushi.

Today there was much less going on. Eric made breakfast of eggs, bacon, and toast, and then we got ready and went to Forest Akers for some golf. We were there about 2 hours. I did a lot of putting, and found out I'm not too shabby at it. But, of course that's the easy part! Now, at some point, I'll have to learn how to drive...

Then, came home, read a bit, fell asleep for about an hour, and then went to dinner at Emil's on Michigan Ave. Yay for all you can eat pasta!!!!

I need more days in the weekend...

Yoga & Sushi

I went to yoga class for the first time in a couple weeks tonight. My instructor was out of town last week, and I missed the week before because of work.

This Thursday night class that I have started going to was a little harder than ones I've taken previously. I worked up more of a sweat, and I think I was just a little out of practice. I have to say, it was definitely something I needed to go to. I'm really beginning to like the practice, and I'm also starting to learn more about the spiritual side of it.

We did this fantastic pose tonight - Pigeon Pose. I love it. It provided such a good stretch, and I also did the laying down aspect. Ahhhh.

And what yoga class in the evening would be complete without sushi? I popped over to the sushi bar at AI Fusion. I enjoyed some edamame, spicy tuna roll and a Crazy Dragon roll. YUM!!!!

All in all, I'm feeling pretty good!
