I tried to take a picture of everything I ate today! I actually ate some pretty good food. I have been proud of myself for being able to venture out and explore new food options.
For breakfast I went to a street vendor and got a fried egg pancake with yummy sauce inside. It only cost 2 yuan which is basically 30 cents.
We went to 7-11 for lunch again and I had rice with chicken, potatoes, veggies, and an egg tomato thing. Again, it was very yummy! I even spoke a word in Mandarin to the man when I ordered. I picked it out all by myself! I also got another delicious pastry with cream and raisins. I need to stop eating these things or I will never lose weight in China.
For dinner, Ashley and I went to a rice noodle place down the street from my apartment. I got noodles with beef and mushrooms. It has been the best thing I've eaten since I got here. I will definitely be going back to that place before I move next week! Ashley had to teach me how to eat my noodles with chopsticks. But I eventually figured it out. The worst thing I ate today was this soupy gelatin crap that Ashley got and wanted me to try. It is apparently supposed to be good for women's skin. It was not good....
I went back to 7-11 after dinner to get a snack. I got a yummy China sucker.
I learned a few more words today... I don't know the right spelling for this one so I will just do the pronunciation.
