Looking forward to Oreo Dangos

It seems that once you get into summer, it's pretty much over. Then again, in the working world, "summer" doesn't really exist anymore, yet somehow we cling to doing vacations and just plain chillin' out during these 3 months of the year.

Although I'm not on my Friday yet, I think I"ll be starting my weekend off a bit early by taking a quick stroll back to Anaheim to meet up with some friends at the Disneyland Hotel's Lost Bar. Not only a tourist favorite, it's a favorite of many locals just cause it's a small cozy place in the middle of "The Happiest Place on Earth!" "Where Dreams Come True!" It's a favorite of my friends and I since we spent many summers hanging out at the Lost Bar after a long day of work. It's become some kind of a tradition for us since that's when any of us usually see each other anymore...summers at the Lost Bar. *sigh* good times indeed...

Anyhow, checking the calendar it's gonna be a festive weekend with L.A.'s Nisei Week kicking off tomorrow. With that brings Import Showoff Nisei Showoff Car Show & Carnival. It also means Nikkei Games, Tofu Festival, Sumo matches, cosplay competitions, Anime Festival, taiko drumming, and the crowning of the Nisei Queen. Should be loads of fun! Even better yet, there should be good eats too...hopefully the Oreo dangos will be there...just like a fried Oreo, just using dango batter. It's making my mouth water just thinking about it.

Hope you all have a great weekend. Keep it safe! Maybe you'll catch me at a Nisei event - if you do buy me a dango and say hi! =) Don't forget to set the Tivo/DV-Rs! Naruto Hundo starts today...
