Food Adventure

We were invited to a small dinner at Mikey-Ike's parents house down south.

It was very lovely and the food was amazing.
Mikey-Ike's Mum, is I think one of the best cook I've ever met - seriously!

She made us traditional American dinner.

Mashed Potatoe, Greens, and a huge steak - just what my tummy was craving for...


These twice baked potatoes are to die for! I crave for this...
Creamy and the texture is always just right.
And after eating mashed potatoe, the potatoe skin is delish to munch on.

Not sure if this is "traditional American," I learned to eat (from Mikey-Ike, he is part Latino) my steak with these: Jalapeno, horseradish, and salsa ^_^

for Dessert...

Homemade Caramel Apple.

Oh... Über goodness!

Happy Halloween!

I hope things are well with you...

True colours.

Bowling avec mon frere =)

Good times last night...

First, I met with Rej and we bowled for an hour or so. I was hesitant at first, but I thought... why not. As it turned out, bowling made me laugh and shouted for joy =)

*On the other lane... there were these guys who had British accent (it seemed like). One of them looked familiar. I brushed it off...
Later on, apparently those guys were in a band or something. Lol. Drat! I'm still figuring out who they were. Rej will tell me later...


Then the night proceeded. I took Rej to Greens Restaurant =) Vegetarian. That was not a very good idea. Since Rej is not a fun of vegies. Oh well... at least now he knows what a Polenta is =) Lol. He's a good sport though, he didn't throw a tantrum (not that he'd ever do that).

Such a sweet boy. He told me stories that me laugh so hard that people started looking at us. =)

Tack och adjö.

Biscuit has left us.

His name was actually Erkki and he is 16.

He lives in the nearby stables and possibly had a stroke or something.

So no more Biscuit.

My little heart aches.

I could have been a cat lady.

I feel your pain (animals should be set free =/).

Mart, Jorgen and their family are having difficulties right now. Their mom is in the hospital at this moment; we've been trying to get a hold of Mart. Yesterday she called and she told me about what has been going on in their family. Dawn and I, dragged her and her sister outside for a bit. We ended up in the Zoo in Oakland, its about 20 mins drive from the City.

You'd like their family. She's one of my closest friend here. Her family is like my second family. I go to their house in Sacramento often (3 hrs away from the City). She's chill and cool. We met in high school and ever since, we've become very good friends.

*Madonna (aka Dawn) & Marthy (aka Mart)

*Dawn (she is hilarious!) & Jorgen (Mart's sister)

*Frances (Mart and Jorgen's niece)

*Dawn, Mart, & Frances

I don't know what to say... except. Never take for granted of anything or anyone. Take care of each other. =)
