The OMG almond croissants. She likes it.
Someone brought Zinger some almond croissants from Jean Philippe bakery inside Bellagio in Las Vegas. Zinger has heard some good things about JP bakery and was very eager to try the croissants. So when the croissants arrived, she left her warm cozy room upstair and rode her pillow to the the cold kitchen downstair to eat the croissants. ( Zinger usually doesn't come to the kitchen because it's very cold downstair. ) OMG these almond croissants are the best croissants she has ever had. They are so flaky and the fillings are out of this world. Very buttery pastry and buttery sweet fillings. Zinger savored every bite of the croissant. Zinger was so happy that she did a pillow dance and then flapped her flappers as she went back to her room. She likes it.

Expired white elephant gift. She doesn't like it.
Zinger went to a white elephan gift exchange party. She ended up with 3 pounds of gingerbread cookies packed inside a nice looking house. Zinger was very excited because the house is cute and there are 3 pounds of gingerbread cookies dipped in white chocolate. Then she found out that there is a white label on the bottom of the house that says "Exp 08/xx/2008". The gift is from last year!!!! And it has been sitting in someone's house for a whole year!!! Zinger got someone's unwanted trash!!! She doesn't like it.

Stan's Donuts. She likes it.
Zinger got a delivery of Stan's Donuts today. Stan's donuts are the best donuts. They are big and soft and the glaze is very good. They are Zinger's favorite donuts. They are especially good for the cold weather this week. Eating sweets helps Zinger keep her cylinder warm. She likes it.

Not so fresh pillow case. She doesn't like it.
Zinger has a pillow case that she wears over her UA Tech sweatshirt. It is all wrinkled. And she sniffed at it and it doesn't smell very fresh. Must be from all the dirty hands that patted her. Yeeeew!!! She wants it washed and ironed. She doesn't like it.
Happy Donuts 2 x 2. She likes it.
It has been very cold the last few days. Zinger needs to eat lots of sweets to keep her cylinder warm. Wish granted, she got 4 donuts yesterday. Two glazed raised and 2 choclate raised. And they are from one of her favorite donut shops, Happy Donuts. This is Happy Donuts in Menlo Park. Zinger devoured two donuts right away. Hmm...... heavenly sweet and good. She likes it.

Vasy's Donuts. She likes it.
Zinger had some Vasy's Donuts ( Fremont, CA ) today. Zinger tried the chocolate bar. The bar is pretty thick, which Zinger likes. The dough is soft and has good flavor. Because the bar is thick, so Zinger can really taste the pillowy dough ( Raised donuts that have pillowy dough is a good thing) . It has a nice thick chocolate frosting. Zinger likes it. The bar costs $0.80 and is bigger than average size. This is good value. Zinger didnt' try the buttermilk donut but she approves. The buttermilk donut is crunchy on the outside and has a nice buttermilk flavor. Vasy's raised donuts. She likes it.

Very good gingerbread cookie. She likes it.
Zinger likes looking at her cute gingerbread people, but she likes eating them too. When Zinger opened her box of gingerbread people, she found one of them was broken in half. So she ate that one first. Wow, this gingerbread is so good. It has good texture and flavor. She still has 2 gingerbread people left. ( She was nice to give one away.) She likes it.
Poked in the face. She doesn't like it.
Zinger was resting on her pillow at night. She was thinking about what sweets she will eat in the morning. Then she heard the alarm clock chimes. And suddenly a hand reached across her face and fingers poked in her face. Ouch!! That really hurts. Not only her face hurts, the fur on her face was messed up also. She expected that she would get some donuts to help ease the pain she suffered. But no donuts. No stickybuns. She received no sweets as compensations. She doesn't like it.

"Cable Box" blocking score. She doesn't like it.
NBA season started and Zinger likes to watch the Warriors. Tonight she was watching Warriors' first game of the season against the Hornets. But she could not see the score on the upper left corner of the screen clearly because "Cable Box" blocked the score. How come the "Cable Box" doesn't disappear? It was on the whole time. Could not see score and Warriors lost. She doesn't like it.

Playing Wii Batman 24/7. Zinger likes it.
Zinger has been playing Wii Lego Batman for days since she started. The Lego characters are so cute. One of her favorite moves is to have Batman set the bomb to explode up objects.

TJS buttermilk biscuit. She likes it.
TJS sells frozen buttermilk biscuit that you can bake at home. Over the weekend. Cousins made some of these biscuits and they were very tasty. Especially when they were hot. Zinger ate the biscuits with butter, strawberry jam and whipped cream. They were super good. Zinger is not sure why those biscuits shrunk when they cooled. Good flaky biscuits. She likes it.
Savemart donuts. She doesn't like it.
Today, someone got some savemart donuts ( buttermilk and cinnamon swirl ). Zinger tried both. The donuts do not have very good flavor and the texture is not soft and chewy. The sugar coating does not taste good either. She took one bite out of each donut and that was all she could eat. She doesn't like it.

Paris Baguette pastries. She likes it.
Waiting to visit Paris Baguette Bakery. She doesn't like it.
Sunday early morning around 1AM, someone sent an email to Zinger's iPhone that there is a new Korean Bakery in Santa Clara. And that they have good pastries and bread. Zinger loves to eat sweets so she wanted to visit the bakery on Sunday. But nobody took her there. She waited and waited. Still no shuttle to the bakery. She doesn't like it.
Concaved belly. She doesn't like it.
Zinger hasn't had a physical in a while. So she had an exam to make sure that her cylinder is healthy and looks good. The exam results showed that her belly is concaved in. There is a groove on her belly. This is due to the blanket she parks on that is too short and digs into her belly. In order to maker her cylinder better, she needs to be massaged to make her cylinder smooth and even throughout the length. Her blanket also needs to be adjusted and mesaured so that it perfectly aligns with her cylinder. Her cylinder weight should be distributed evenly on the blanket. No perfect cylinder. She doesn't like it.

Wii Outdoor Challenge is fun. She likes it.
More than 30 hours after Zinger received the game from Amazon, she finally got to play it. Zinger was running and jumping on the mat. She really exercised all 4 flappers and worked up a sweat.

Jeans belt loop chafing skin. She doesn't like it.
Zinger has recently learned that if you do all of the following:
1) wear jeans with belt loops.
2) wear a belt.
3) carry a backpack.
4) running to catch a bus.
All of the above will result in the belt loop chafing skin on your back and cause open sore. This is because the bottom of the backpack rub against the belt on the back as you run. This pushes the belt loop against your skin. And this rubbing on the skin causes an open sore.
And if you repeate the above 4 items with different pair of jeans, then you will get another open sore at a different location because the belt loop location is different. She doesn't like it.

Ghosts. She doesn't like it.
Zinger doesn't like ghosts. Halloween is less than 2 months away, so she got her ghost-buster shirt out from her closet. She is wearing it so no ghosts can come near her. She doesn't want any ghost to sneak up on her back and scare her. Ghosts on her back. She doesn't like it.
Flaky glazed donuts. She likes it.
Both 7-eleven and Napoleon Bakery in Hawaii sell these flakey double knot shaped donuts. She likes the glazed kind. They are so sweet and good. She can eat a dozen of them in one sitting. She likes it.

7-eleven in Hawaii sells all kinds of musubi and sushi rolls. Zinger likes them all. Her favorite are the sushi rolls. The wasabi salmon and shoyu tuna are so good. Although she doesn't eat them but she approves of them and she knows they are really good. She likes it.

Champion Malasadas. She doesn't like it.

No Sugar on Leonard's Malasads. She doesn't like it.
Zinger knows some people went to Leonard's and got some malasadas and request no sugar on the malasadas. How can you order malasadas without any sugar? Why ruin a perfect Leonard's malasadas with no sugar. A malasadas without sugar is like wearing a tuxedo without a bow tie. In Zinger's book, there is no such thing as malasadas without sugar. She doesn't like it.
Friday, August 22, 2008

Playing at Monkey Bar. She likes it.
Cousins have been working very hard. Day and night to make money to help make up the money they lost in the stock market. They are bakers by day and play gigs at clubs at night. They and their cousin Monkichi have formed a band "Monkichi and the Cousins". They are 3 very talented monkeys. Sometimes Zinger joined them as the bass guitar player. Zinger has been practicing her guitar on Rockband and is getting better every time she played Rockband. Last night, Monkichi and the Cousins with/Zinger played at Monkey Bar. The crowd went wild when they heard them. Especially when they played Human League's Fascination, they brought down the house. Zinger was so excited. She likes it.

HB general manager called back. She likes it
Zinger got a call from the General Manger at HB in Milpitas today. He called to asked about the bad dining experience at HB last Friday night. He apologized for not having the 2 advertised items: pot roast and fried shrimps. He wants Zinger to be a happy customer and come back and dine again. So he offered 2 free dinners at HB. Zinger is happy that the manager really does care about his customers and wants them to enjoy eating at HB. Zinger likes it.
WF stickybun. She likes it.
Someone very nice (unlike someone else who was at WF the other day and didn't get her the stickybun) finally heard Zinger's repeated request and brought her a WF stickybun. After a session on Rockband, Zinger was ready to eat her stickybun. Zinger parked very high on the couch's back to admire her stickybun sitting across the room on the kitchen counter. She likes to look at her stickybun before eating it. It was so sticky and flaky, just the way Zinger likes. Zinger ate her stickybun and was all smile. She is ready for another one, maybe some donuts also. She likes it.
Rockband rocks!!! She likes it.
Zinger's Rockband was finally setup and hooked Sunday afternoon after much waiting and flapping. She couldn't wait to put her flappers on the Fender Guitar and the drumsticks and start jamming. But there was a guest in the house this afternoon. It's a 6-year old boy. He was hogging the drumset most of time. And since nobody really knew how to play it and was just guessing how the game should be played. And nobody was good. Couldn't even finish the song before getting booed by the audience. Zinger knew how to play it but nobody listened to her. And so she waited patiently for her turn. She waited and waited. She didn't like it but she was being nice and waited. Finally after all the guests left the house, she had a chance to play it. She was ready. She had her 2 flappers on the guitar and the other 2 flappers on the drums. She was really good. She played at the expert level. 4 flappers up. She likes it.

Cannot play Rockband. She doesn't like it.
Zinger finally got her Rockband for PS3. She had waited so long for it and it is finally here. She is so excited that she was flapping her flappers all day. But nobody helped her set it up. She stared at the box in front of her all afternoon and could not play it. She flapped her flappers all night but still nobody helped her set it up. Rockband is here and she can't play it. She doesnt like it.

No Stan's donuts. She doesn't like it
It's Friday!!! So that means Mr. T sometimes goes to Stan's on the way to work and get some big fluffy doughy donuts that Zinger likes. Zinger has not had Stan's for ages. Too long to even remember when the last time she had it. And since she has not had any donuts from anywhere ( please, no Safeway donuts ) for weeks, she really wants to eat some donuts. Then she found out that nobody saved any Stan's donuts for her. What?? How can anyone not save any donuts for Zinger knowing that she has been asking for donuts everyday for the last few months. She was waiting for donuts. She doesn't like it.
quadruple disappointments at HB. She doesn't like it.
Tonight's dinner was at HB because they supposedly have pot roast on Friday night, which Zinger likes, although she doesn't eat it. And plus the coupon deal, dinner for $5.99. Normally the dinner is $11.49. But tonight's dinner experience was just a total disaster. 1st, the coupon's deal is buy one dinner at regular price, get one for $5.99. Okay. so that's $19.82 for two dinners, not 2x$5.99 + tax. 2nd, they didn't have pot roast. It' is Friday right? Where is the pot roast? So they have steak and salmon. But Zinger wants to see pot roast. The Fork Tender Pot Roast that the advertised. And 3rd, what about fried shrimps. There was no sight of shrimps anywhere. The HB lady there said they had no pot roast and no fried shrimps? What is this? False advertisement to get customers to come and and serve cafeteria food for $9+ /person. And on top of that, 4th was the dinner roll? Zinger likes their hot sweet generously buttered pillowy soft dinner rolls. But the dinner roll was not hot, and it was NOT SOFT and was DRY!!!! Flappers down on HB tonight. Zinger doesn't like it.
Anchovie Pizza???!!!! She doesn't like it.
It's a nice day today. Zinger rode her pillow to Sanrio Park this morning. She saw a pink mini-bike parked there and she knew her friend Spottie was there. Spottie is very fashionable. (See picture on the left) She is a New Yorker. She chatted with spottie and it was almost lunch time. Spottie's sidekick Sassy brought a picnic basket. Hmm, Zinger was hungry. Maybe Sassy brought some sweets. Sassy opened the picnic basket, Pheeewwww.... What's that smell. Anchovie pizza!!!! Zinger doesn't like anchovie pizza. She hurried said good-bye to Spottie and Sassy and rode her pillow home. Zinger does not like fishy food. She doesn't like it.
New Mi Pueblo Food Center. She likes it.
Zinger heard that there is a new Mi Pueblo Food Center opening up at the corner of Capitol Ave. and McKee Road. She plans to ride her pillow there and check out the new store. She will check out their Taqueria and of course the Panaderia. Maybe they will have some very sweet pastries. She can sip some refreshing drinks like watermelon and pina colada. She likes it.
She is waiting for stickybuns. She doesn't like it.
Tomorrow, MG will go to Whole Foods. Zinger likes the stickybun rings that Whole Foods sells. So she is waiting for MG to bring some stickybun rings back for her. Zinger has not had stickybuns for a while. No donuts either. Zinger is waiting. She doesn't like waiting. She doesn't like it.

The sprinklers are working now!!!! All the front and back yard sprinkler heads all pop up. No more manual watering now. Zinger likes it.
Not sweet banana bread. She doesn't like it.
Cousins have been making banana bread for a customer. The customer likes Cousins' banana bread. Now this customer wants to place more order. The customer has some specific requests. One of them is to reduce the amount of sugar in the bread. Cousins have already cut the amount of sugar by 1/3. Now the customer wants even less sugar. The customer wants to cut the sugar by another 50%, so that means there is only 1/3 of the sugar in the original recipe. How can you have banana bread not sweet? That's insane!! Zinger likes her banana bread with a lot of sugar. 10 times the sugar in the original recipe. Zinger is so sweet. She doesn't understand why people don't want sugar in their bread. She doesn't like it.
