What I’m Loving Wednesday 2.20.13

1. Last weekend, we celebrated my best friend Nikki’s 30th birthday. She also announced that she’s pregnant with her second child. Look how cute she is! (first from left)830268_10100382620961534_497614325_o

2. On Monday, my friend Matt and I ate lunch at O-Ku. I had seaweed salad for the first time last week and needed more. O-Ku’s is really good. IMG_3144

Their bento boxes are a great deal for lunch. For $10, I got the teriyaki chicken box that comes with a spring salad with ginger-carrot vinaigrette, a crab salad & avocado roll, glass noodles, and sautéed veggies. I am also not ashamed to admit that I went back on Tuesday and had another bento box.IMG_3145O-Ku Sushi on Urbanspoon

3. This view from the pier at Mt. Pleasant Memorial Waterfront Park. Come visit!IMG_29244. This boatneck top I bought from Ann Taylor.

6. I finally snagged a bag of the new Lay’s sriracha chips. I like them a lot, but don’t think they taste enough like sriracha. I guess I will just have to dip them!

7. I can’t stop laughing at this.

 Peace out friends. I’ve got snack mix to eat.

    Damn you now I want a BENTO box today!! Looks amazing, what a steal! Have been dying to try the Siriachia chips but heard they were more sweet than hot? What about the Chicken and Waffles flavor that just makes me want to gag.

    O-Ku looks delicious. I haven’t been there yet but will be sure to try it next time I’m downtown.

    If I could eat a bento box every single day, I would. It’s my favorite kind of food, so delicious! And now I’m craving Sriracha chips, so thank you.

    • http://www.hungrymeetshealthy.com/ Christina

      no joke…so good.

  • 01Sarena14

    That view is amazing! I want to come visit! I wondered about that chip flavor. I’m not a huge chip lover, but sriracha is a different story all together. ;)

    China Glaze must be what the Food Network chefs wear:) Hint of color.

  • mariafalls

    Omg. You are even cute when you go bowling.

    I’ve been looking for a pale pink, barely there polish. I am horrible about painting my own nails and I think it would show less with this color.
