What a delicious and magical day. Went out with HS friends to a hot pot place around the far corner of town. Very unconventional place; normally you have simmering liquid and dip your ingredients in and pull it out. For this one, you load up a bowl with ingredients, request a broth, pay by the pound, and receive it all in a big bowl with the broth. I got way way too much food — about 2.85 pounds. I managed to eat through a third of it which was actually quite good but it was definitely daunting for me. Thank goodness for the to-go containers. I had to use two. Hannah read up some reviews of the place and found a reviewer who also didn’t seem to know the system, and their order consisted of nearly five pounds of food split between two bowls! That made me feel a bit better. Later we went to get some boba, and then to the supermarket in the square for some snacks for the two friends that didn’t come along (one sick, another overslept). Hannah paid for boba for me – bless her!! :-) In the supermarket we checked out the new crane machine and some live fish. Once out, we split up, and then went off to drop off the snacks and tea at those two friend’s houses and then dropped off the rest of us. Dragonboat seems to be in full swing for most of them.
