Finally celebrated Sebastian’s birthday by treating him to lunch at Dish Society. First time going off to lunch during work day and it was nice to get away. Never enough time to talk but always the best conversations.
Thursday night, Beth and I finally went out to dinner to celebrate Mallory’s birthday at Ambriza. Since it was our first time, we got the corn for free. And since it was her birthday, they had a frame to take pictures with and a free tres leches as they sung happy birthday to her. The food was good but the company was better. We later took pics outside the Christmas tree that’s been lit and Mallory was freezing and jokingly put on the scarf I made her. Haha
Since I was off Friday, I finally fixed my hair to a more natural colour for Jenny’s upcoming wedding. It was so blonde before that it’s still super light in certain places but overall, looks great. Also, found my go to hair dresser. Win!
Sarurday, Sissy, BIL, Timothy, Lillian, Jacky, and I met at Roots Wine Bar prior to Sarah’s performance.
You give them your credit card and they link it to the chip card they have. The chip card is used for the wine machines where you can choose 1oz, 3 oz, or 5 oz pours of certain wines. So much to choose from and they even have a placard you can take that describes the wines in detail. Every with is different cost depending what it is as well. (Note: If you make reservations you have to put a $10 deposit for each person. That money ends up on one chip card and if you don’t use it all you lose it. We went over so not sure if you spend money on food if it can go towards it though.)
Although food isn’t the main thing here it was a hot. Expensive with little portions but it was delicious. We were surprised by the steak tartare. I think that was my first time and was well worth it.
We headed off to Sarah’s performance sans BIL. The costumes and live music accompaniment was perfect. The music was written by the grandfather of the person that put it all together. It’s crazy how she still dances professionally. Who said you can’t dance after a certain age?
Some good eats for the week. Thaicoon is still the best Thai place. Big City Wings wasn’t hitting the spot with their flavours. But the hot pot made a comeback after so long since it’s starting to get cold.
I went puzzle crazy this week and finished four of them. My cats and dogs 10 set puzzle is now completed. Sad some had missing pieces though due to kids or manufacturers but since it’s so old, nothing I can do Those were hard since all the pieces had the same shapes but very rewarding.
The rest of the month is going to be a bit crazy … but fun. I cannot wait for the hump to be over so I can relax a bit though.
