sunny with a chance of sweets.

want to say thanks!! to lifeanditsotherdrugs for nominating me for the Fashion Beauty Friend Friday Awards.
wow, so sweet!
you can check it out here

it was a sunshiny sunday.
a dip in the pool followed by
nuggets and fries and mcflurries on the rooftop.
stopped at a local hotspot on the way home for shave ice.
this tiny place is run by two cute, old ladies. people line up from 10am - 5pm daily to get their fill of eccentric shave ice combinations.
i always get #7 which is shave ice, milk, mochi balls,
and two huge blocks of custard.
the other is a rainbow shave ice with mochi balls
and condensed cream.
you can even get shave ice with oatmeal or japanese azuki beans.
the picture was taken just before the rainbow one toppled over (while trying to get a close-up picture).
gawd...for the love of blog, i tell ya.
so i grabbed a few close-ups from yelp.com.
oh, and my mom made the most delicious chocolate mochi cake.
this week's forecast: no sweets

 
(tank & pants, banana republic; sweater, random l.a. store; swimsuit, vix)
(close-up photos via yelp.com)


GIVEAWAY COMING SOON!

Great photos and I giggled reading your post. I'm craving mochi now. We use to have a chinese bakery near by with all these delicious sweets.Now I have no where to go for the deep fried mochi with the soybean filling :( I do have a great shave ice place and I can't wait for warmer weather to enjoy some. Thanks for the comment on my blog and maybe we can follow each other(?).
