All of my dogs have had Hawaiian names.
She was born in May 2017 and I loved her since the moment I saw her.]]> 2021-01-20 07:27:05 UTC https://padlet.com/ss952/f28bfhori25bpma2/wish/1104484465 ss952 https://padlet.com/ss952/f28bfhori25bpma2/wish/1104616977 My second bff is Ruby, who we adopted from the Humane Society in August 2020. She hasn't been around for even a year but I feel like I've known her my whole life. ]]> 2021-01-20 08:08:26 UTC https://padlet.com/ss952/f28bfhori25bpma2/wish/1104616977 ss952 https://padlet.com/ss952/f28bfhori25bpma2/wish/1104630234 I love rice, mochi, tenpura, udon, curry, tonkatsu, gyoza, takuan, shabu shabu. green tea, chocolates, dango, wagashi and the list goes on and on and on.]]> 2021-01-20 08:12:31 UTC https://padlet.com/ss952/f28bfhori25bpma2/wish/1104630234 ss952 https://padlet.com/ss952/f28bfhori25bpma2/wish/1104653873 This stuff is so good. I love hot green tea but am too lazy to make my own at home. I should probably change that.
During my trip to Japan, I made so much green tea with the packets my hotel gave me. It was amazing.]]> 2021-01-20 08:19:36 UTC https://padlet.com/ss952/f28bfhori25bpma2/wish/1104653873 ss952 https://padlet.com/ss952/f28bfhori25bpma2/wish/1104660527 My favorite type of dango is the colorful one. In Japan I got so much dango from Family Mart (a better version of 7-11) I felt like a criminal who was hoarding it for myself but... it's just so good. Also the Family Mart ones looks like it's made out of plastic so I'd recommend you'd go buy freshly made dango and not the weird plastic looking ones. ]]> 2021-01-20 08:21:38 UTC https://padlet.com/ss952/f28bfhori25bpma2/wish/1104660527 ss952 https://padlet.com/ss952/f28bfhori25bpma2/wish/1104670590 I first learned of this chocolate when someone else brought it back in Japan around 2014. It's beyond description and let's just say I had to hold back from eating it all myself.
When I eat this chocolate I feel so pampered, so rich. It's such a delicacy. Not culturally, just in a pampering terms.]]> 2021-01-20 08:24:39 UTC https://padlet.com/ss952/f28bfhori25bpma2/wish/1104670590 ss952 https://padlet.com/ss952/f28bfhori25bpma2/wish/1104683168 I have a varying range when it comes to music tastes.

My favorite place to get boba is Hula Boba in Kapolei. They have a cute penguin mascot and the cover to their drinks has the mascot's face that you can stab your straw through! ]]> 2021-01-20 09:37:33 UTC https://padlet.com/ss952/f28bfhori25bpma2/wish/1104918435 ss952 https://padlet.com/ss952/f28bfhori25bpma2/wish/1104958387 Ipo wanted to protect our home from the balloons.
