Every single weekend this month has been MISERABLE! It will be nice all week and as soon as Friday rolls around, the temp drops and the rain begins. It's been awful! Finally this weekend, we had PERFECT weather and we took advantage of it to the fullest!
Friday it rained all day but cleared up just in time for dinner so we headed to the local sushi-go-round with one of our favorite couples, the Robs.
When we 1st started going to this sushi-go-round, I got hooked on a certain plate of sushi. I haven't seen this particular sushi in over a year though. Every time I go, I look for it, but I never see it. I don't know what it's called, therefore I can't order it. So you can imagine my excitement when the friends we were with ordered some sushi and out came THE sushi I have been looking for for over a year now!
I still have no clue what it's called but I now have a photo to show the sushi chef {or I could just ask one of my students to tell me the name of this}. After sushi, we came back to our house to play a few games.
Saturday, Jason and I went to the local Home Depot/Bed Bath & Beyond store called Viva Home. We needed to pick up a runner for our hallway so Buster can walk without sliding around like he's on a sheet of ice and some herbs/veggies for our "garden".
We settled on basil, rosemary, thyme and tomatoes and okra {Jason INSISTED on okra}. I can't wait to have enough tomatoes and basil to make tomato sauce and bruschette!
That evening we had our first neighborhood BBQ of the year.
We are so blessed to have some wonderful neighbors! I'm looking forward to a summer full of great BBQ's!
Sunday we attended church then brunch at the community club on base {thanks to some free tickets, we don't usually fork out $18/person for a mediocre meal}. After brunch, we headed out on our bikes.
I love my new cruiser...except when I have to go up hill and only have one gear! I'm really hoping our next base is in a flat area!
We went to a park and tossed a softball for a while but mostly just rode around town enjoying the beautiful weather.
We topped off our wonderful weekend with what has become one of my favorite Japanese meals, udon and tempura
and a pretty good earthquake. A weekend in Japan couldn't be complete without a little shake!
I hope you all had a great weekend!

I belive the sushi is a type of Salmon with a mayonaise dressing. But one of my favorites too and all along I just believed it was Salmon... :-)
