Practice Approach Handoff

Thanks to Steven, Bob, and Mike for helpful explanations to my
question about my handoff to Tower (or lack of handoff) on a practice
instrument approach in VFR conditions.
Steven said, "Missed approach is not authorized for VFR practice
approaches." So I guess I said the wrong thing when I told Oakland
Center that I would terminate with a missed approach. What I meant
was that I wasn't going to land, I was going to fly over the runway
and then depart the area.
If a missed approach is not allowed, what language should I use to
indicate that I won't land and will depart the area?
Just say you'd like a low approach and what direction you'll be departing.
