Behold this week’s receipt! I also did some shopping in Chinatown to get some groceries for a belated Lunar New Year dinner we’re throwing tonight. Sometimes, it’s just amazing what you can get. In addition to all the groceries on the receipt, I got:
- Sweet Rice Flour: $3
- Scallions: $.50
- Green leafy vegetable that looks like baby bok choy, but not entirely sure what it is: $2 (for 1.5 pounds!)
- Fresh rice noodles: $1
- TOTAL: $6.50
So, in addition to the receipt, we spent $28.57 this week, leaving us with $1.43.

Buying mystery items from the Asian Markets is fun! Coming home and trying them is always an adventure.
Enjoy!

I get mystery items sometimes from our CSA. We got an Asian green called yakuna savoy this week (like baby bok choy) and it was DELICIOUS! I just finished the tiny bit of leftovers for lunch.

You know Marcia, that sounds EXACTLY like what I got and it was delicious! I cooked it up with some leftover fermented black bean sauce that’s been lurking in our fridge.
