Wednesday In Japan... Yakiniku

Tuesday was Daughters Birthday.

For her Day she wanted a Pool Party with a Yakiniku Dinner.

And that is what we did.

Yakitori is the term used for Japanese grilling.

Here is "Cooking with Dog" 4 minute video showing what we did.

Cooking a meal with Daughter is great fun.

 Had to pick up a few items.

rice, seaweed, Unagi sauce, Hoisin sauce, Sake, Tonkatsu sauce, pickled veggies

pickled plums, rice vinegar sushi vinegar, Samjang (spicy bean paste)

We didn't use everything here but I love it all.

Here is your pretty for mid-week.

Today Waldie came back from doctors with his stiches removed and a OK to walk on his own without the sling ! He has been on crate rest. 

He walked outside and enjoyed a "rest in the sun" and out of the crate.

.

 .

 Only two weeks after sugery he is walking on all four legs.

He still has to rest as much as he can but he can be out of his crate superivesed.

Yea Waldie... gud job !

Yea yea yea... he is walking big deal but this is my poof and I am Queen of the poof !
