Grads, Party and Happy Birthday!

Yes Im so narcissistic im wishing myself happy birthday!! But why not? Im 28, in a great school, have a great house with two really bad cats, have a great family and the sweetest Handsomest Gentleman Friend around! I survived another year which is both the most impressive thing and le11 ast impressive thing ever. My mom is in town!!! OMG Im so happy!! She flew in on Wed, and I picked her up and had to go to work. But thursday we went to the city and did a little shopping, I got a SUUUPER cute polkadot t-shirt dress for work and some cute hair clips I'll show off later. I also got a silly cat top for work and she got lots of good stuff!! We also met GF for dinner and had all you can eat dim sum for 5.99! Boom! Fri we went to the thrift store with the Aunts, I got a REALLY wonderful old metal foot locker, OMG its something I have wanted for EVER! Again pictures to be posted soon!! But to the good stuff- this weekend my Adorable cousin Amy Graduated from high school!! OMG! She was so beautiful, and so 17... I kind of forgot how 17 year old girls are.... lol!!

theres a picture of pizza there, because after we went to eat at california pizza kitchen, which I had never been to before some how. I got the Jamaican Jerk and it was DE-Lightful!! So yummy!! It was a really wonderful day!! We also threw my bdau celebration in there, even though i ask the family not to, lets just celebrate the achievment.. but i got some lovely gift cards, a pikachu tshirt because Im such a nerd, and a bacon chefs hat for bacon day!!! Ya! Pictures of those will come soon.

Last night the co-wrkers and I headed to chevys after a depressingly slow day at work, and THAT crew likes a party!! I was bought a pitcher of margharitas, which I shared, was given some REALLY lovely gifts and generally had a lovely time! GF came out and joined us, and we all took turns wearing my bday sombraro. BTW we had a discussion about Chevy's. Lets get something strait, its not mexican food.Its mexican inspired maybe, but if you go looking for mexican food your sorely dissapointed, Instead looks for grilled chicken, Margharitas and free chips, and you'll be happy as can be 

 Yep!! Also for summer i want to add some new challeges, so stay tuned!!!

FOOD! PICTURES! And Other Amazing things part 1

First and far most lets begin with the fact IM A SPOILED BRAT. :) and totally greatfull for it. Another amazing weekend with the Gentleman Friend and my old friend Paola! If anyone ever read the old blog you'll remember her from my Assisting days. Paola had a conference and crahsed at my place in between. It was so wonderful getting to see her again. On with my weekend of EATING!!

Thursday night when Paola came in on the train we went out for Chinese at the local Daiko. So good!! I had Honey Glazed BBQ Pork and Choy Sum over rice. HOLY COW!! Also I got Instagram... Ya Im turning into a phone whore. But look at the prettyness!! Anywho, Daiko is a wonderful SUPER Chinese resterant. They arnt super friendly to us white folks, but the food is amazing and fresh and cooked to order. I go there very rarely as I am a broke art student, and you cant go there for the service but the food it THAT GOOD. When going though th East bay Stop by.

Friday I went to work and after the co workers, GF, Paola and I all headed out for drinks and fun. The co-workers are a fun crowd! I like them a lot. D'wanna and Toure gave GF his official black card for his favorite movie being Pootie Tang. It was super fun and we got home way to late, as poor Paola had more seminar on Saturday and an early morning awaited.

Saturday after dropping Paola at BART I brought the sleeping GF some donuts and we headed out to the Redwood City BBQ and Blues Festival!!!! :D Ome it was SOOOOO GREAT! We ate so much food, watched whole pigs roasting on a spit, ate bacon hotdogs and enjoyed the sun. Also the music was quite delightful! Pictures!!!

The wrap was the best thing we ate of all the amazing food. it was a wonderful time with a wonderful man :) Afterwards we headed home and rented the new Sherlock Holmes movies and watched untill Paola got back.
