Then Mr. C won against Mrs. M.

Here is me against Mr. C.


Here is one with Wii game screen.


Unfortunately I lost for 2 points at the end... I think it was 28 against 30. >_<

Here is what I got for participating...


Last but not least, our desert for the luncheon! Fabulous cake, half chocolate and half vanilla.

o(^▽^)o

Melting pot--so it's all about hotpot with different ingredients. Oh, the official term is not hotpot, but fondue. I still prefer Chinese hotpot than this but it's a new experience for me. (^ε^)♪

At first we had the Spinach Artichoke Cheese Fondue. It has spinach, artichoke hearts, garlic, and cheese of course. It all melts in the pot which we can dip bread pieces, apple pieces, and vegetables with.

Here is a picture from the web...

Ok, here was the one we actually have, a lot less cheese....

but the bread, veggie, and apple was the same.

Then we had mushroom salad. I'm not a salad person, so I gave it to my friends.

Then the main course, which I dug in so fast that I forgot to take pictures...........

(＞_＜) So I got similar pictures from the web again. The one we ordered was their Signature Selection, which has filet mignon, shrimp, teriyaki-marinated sirloin, boneless breast of chicken, and salmon fillet. They have lots of sauce to go with different meat.

Finally it's my favorite chocolate fondue. (My friend reminded me, so I remembered to take pictures this time.) (・∀・) We order the Ying & Yang, which is just half dark chocolate and half white chocolate swirled in a Chinese YingYang shape.

Pretty, right? Here is the stuff that we dip the chocolate with.

It looked really good but we all preferred if they have more fruit than desert that was already very sweet. The banana and strawberry tasted really good with chocolate. My personal favorite is apple with chocolate, but they don't have it. I wished I saved the apple from the cheese fondue...... (-。－；)

Ok, this concludes my trip to the Melting Pot! ヽ(゜▽、゜)ノ

I remembered to place my digital camera in my bag last night, how could I forget.... Was I very hungry?.....

(-。－；) Oh well, the lunch was great!

I ordered Prawn Pad Thai, my coworder ordered Beef Yellow Curry. I love both. My mouth starts to watering again as I'm writting now... In one word--"Yum!" I think the difference between their food and other Thai restaurant is the sauce. The coconut milk did not over power the sweetness and spicy taste of the other ingredients.

Here is a picture I found that looks very similar to my dish, except mine was with prawn and this looks like is with chicken.

Suddenly I remember Jeong Hoon obba also love Thai food..... Ummmmm, trying to imaging eating Thai food with Jeong Hoon obba. ('-^*)/

Lion dance to at the opening ceremony.



Japanese drum performance.

Most drummers are women! Very lively.

My company had Olympic TGIF lunch and game today. Wii game was set up for people to complete against each other. There are fencing, 100-meter relay, swimming, and another one I forgot. It seems like fencing is the most interesting one, so I signed up to play it against another coworker. I won the first round against a lady(don't know the person). Mr. C played and won Mrs. M. Then Mr. C and I played against each other. It was fun and was a tough game. He was leading at first, then I kept up. At last I lost by 2 points. I probably can win if I played again, but anyway, here is my prize--HuanHuan Olympic Flame figure.

Ok, something about HuanHuan--In the intimate circle of Fuwa, Huanhuan is the big brother. He is a child of fire, symbolizing the Olympic Flame and the passion of sport--and passion is the blessing he bestows. Huanhuan stands in the center of Fuwa as the core embodiment of the Olympic spirit. And while he inspires all with the passion to run faster, jump higher and be stronger, he is also open and inviting. Wherever the light of Huanhuan shines, the inviting warmth of Beijing 2008 -- and the wishful blessing of the Chinese people -- can be felt. The fiery designs of his head ornament are drawn from the famed Dunhuang murals -- with just a touch of China's traditional lucky designs. Huanhuan is outgoing and enthusiastic. He excels at all the ball games and represents the red Olympic ring.

One thing for sure, if it's not for the sad ending, their stories would not be remembered by many people for centuries. People long for happily ever after lives, but can't resist the beauty of sad love story... Such is delimma of life.

What's sad and ugly is when love fades away, people no longer respect the one they used to love so dearly... If this is the case, I'd rather have かなうつ の....................................................................................Floating! Hahaha, my terrible cold joke.....
