I had another glamorous lunch of Lean Cuisine and veggies. I know, don’t be a jelly belly we can’t all eat this good.
But this meal came with a show. Vegas wanted to climb on top of our front door.
He doesn’t believe in gravity. I wish I didn’t either.
Mid-afternoon I had a major chocolate chip cookie craving. Major.
I considered going to a bakery. I considered baking a batch myself.

Finally I decided on a Vitatop paired with Chobani’s Honeynana yogurt. Heavenly. Try it. I am really digging that flavor of yogurt.
I picked up Ben from work (we’re a one car family) and we debated where to have dinner. We drove and searched and talked and finally ended up at a nearby sushi place. It was really anti-climactic. Oh well.
I got the Udon that came with tempura. Ben and I share everything except meat stuff I don’t eat.
I do Udon!
And a couple rolls.
Ben was about to ask for the check when I saw a new sign in the back of the restaurant. They have Banana Tempura now! I don’t know what it is but I am loving Naners lately. I had to try it!
It is a banana fried tempura style and served with vanilla ice cream and a caramel drizzle. I felt like I was at the fair again with this random fried food.
I truly believe dessert has to have chocolate to be a real dessert, so this was good but it lacked a certain chocolate-y goodness that I desire

That banana tempura would have been great with a drizzle of warm nutella. *nods*
Awww, love the kitty pics!!! 😀 SO CUTE!
Crazy kitteh!!!
I definitely like chocolate desserts too, but that banana tempura looks good! All it needs is some hot fudge 🙂 And I’m also loving Vitatops and yogurt!
Did you get the Costco stash too?! Now that I know they’re easy to find I’m going through them like water.
It only has to be something sweet for me to consider it dessert! It looks fantastic.
Haha cats do the craziest things–how funny!!
Are those Costco frozen veggies I recognize in your photo? 😉
The sushi with avocado looks AMAZING. Mmmm…
Yes, Costco veggies 🙂
I love all things banana!
When I’m craving a cookie, I make one if chocolate-covered Katie’s single-lady cookies. They are vegan and only one serving so they do the trick!
I need to make a single batch of my fave cookie! My smallest batch makes 8 and I eat all of them.
Love the pictures of your cat! It is so amazing what great balance they have. 🙂
Your cat is AMAZING!!!
Banana tempura looks soooo good!
Vegas is so precious.
My favorite thai restaurant in Atlanta has banana tempura paired with coconut ice cream. It’s amazing.
Banana Tempura!!!! Oh my goodness, that is incredible!
How in the world did spider cat get up there? And please don’t show my cat because he would be in heaven. He adores the top of the fridge.
Ahh!! So exciting!! Thank you! 🙂
i am totally with you on a dessert needing chocolate to be considered a REAL dessert. fruity desserts just don’t interest me, at all.
i’m making choco chip cookies tonight for a super bowl party tomorrow!
have a great saturday!
that would freak me out to see a cat over the doorway like that! very funny!
I almost bought chocolate chips at Target yesterday for the same reason, but I knew I would eat the bag before I actually made any cookies…
Your cat is so cute!! Not scared either I see, very brave, but they say cats always land on their feet I guess ; )
At PF Changs they have an amazing banana tempura dessert there too! THe one there looks yummy as well!! Mike and I had a sushi roll that was amazing once called the donkey kong roll and it had banana tempura in the middle, it was to die for! It had crushed peanuts on top and this amazing sweet sauce, I forget what fish was used in it, it was just amazing!
Oh my gosh! That sounds amazing!
