[2018] 124/365: Salvadorian Deliciousness

I didn’t take many pictures today but I was lucky to get some pupusas for lunch. They were great but not the best. There’s a place in Katy that’s better at stuffing their pupusas. Their tamales though were my favourite but the clear winner was the carne asada plate for Scruffy and me.

We stopped by Wal-Mart and have been home ever since. Rami, Caitlin, and Peyton made a guest visit for dinner where Ashy made amazing fettuccine alfredo with garlic bread, salad, and asparagus. I was too busy trying to get pictures of everyone that I forgot to take a picture of the food.

I also bought a new PS4 game, Wheel of Fortune and Jeopardy, to play with Scruffy and it seemed that Jamie liked it as well.

I’m ready to call it a night soon. This weekend will be my last before I start the new job. Eeep!

Stuffing Our Faces

by Leave a Comment

85°C Bakery Cafe | Sugar Land, Texas

I was running around like a headless chicken finding a place that notarizes I-9 forms for work. After a few attempts and getting back so many nos, I headed over to Scruffy’s where we hung out for a bit before heading to lunch. We stopped by 85 Degree Bakery since the restaurant wasn’t opened yet and grabbed a handfuls of goodies, mostly for my parents … if Ashy doesn’t eat it all.

Kura Revolving Sushi Bar | Sugar Land, Texas

Once Kura Revolving Sushi opened we started to feast. Fifteen plates later, we got our little gift (sushi washi tape) and Scruffy scarfed another one before we called it quits.

After eating, I dropped Scruffy off at his house and stopped by the new job’s company to sign the I-9 form in front of them since I couldn’t find a place to notarize. After that I went and got my nails done at Venice Nail & Spa since Jamie and Ashy got me a gift card at Christmas time.

The Rouxpour | Sugar Land, Texas

I went back to Scruffy’s, hung out a bit and after a few hours of trying to decide where to go for dinner. Scruffy wanted to treat me to celebrate finding a job and we ended up at The Rouxpour for a drink and some delicious oysters. The one with spinach, crab, and hollandaise oyster was our clear winner as well as the original with nothing on it. As Scruffy describes it, super buttery and easy to go down.

The Sugar Refinery | Sugar Land, Texas

Few doors down was the The Sugar Refinery where we grabbed some Saloon Door Tasty AF, calamari, and an old fashioned.

HEB Seafood Stuffed Salmon and Frozen Brussels Sprouts

Since a lot of places were closing, we went to HEB and picked up things for our main entree meal. I went for the seafood stuffed salmon and frozen Brussels sprouts while Scruffy opted to fry fries, corn dogs, and whatever else he could get his hands on since Mum gifted him a fryer.

I am now tired and ready to just lay down and relax.

Sephora Haul

Woke up, ate my leftover pho, then headed out the door to accompany Dad to the doctor. Afterwards, we stopped by Sissy and BIL’s to pick up their pups, stopped by Mum’s work to pick up her car before heading home.

[2018] 121/365: Sephora Haul

I stopped by the bank then went to pick Mum up from work to go shopping. We were there to shop for my new job but somehow it ended up shopping for her. I was able to stop by Sephora buying mascara, setting spray, and perfume. The rest were free and samples. Win!

Perry's Steakhouse | Houston, Texas | Food

Mum and I then went to dinner at Perry’s Steakhouse. We ordered way too much food but we also decided to give some to Dad who was home watching all the pups.

Libyan Couscous

Pho Ben | Sugar Land, Texas | Favor Delivery

Scruffy, Ashy, and I ordered food from Pho Ben. We definitely had a lot of leftovers and I’m excited to have them tomorrow! The rest of the day Scruffy and I passed the IPad back and forth playing Star Realms (I keep losing) and shopping and watching random telly.

[2018] 119/365: Libyan Couscous

Jamie made her famous Libyan Couscous dish. I’m hoping I get the recipe soon because it was delicious! You could make it with other grains other than couscous! That lamb hit the spot, especially the bone marrow. DROOL.

Best Damn Smoothie Bowl

[2018] 116/365: Pretty Smoothie Bowl

Guys … this is the prettiest smoothie bowl I’ve ever made! That gorgeous blue/purple colour from the frozen blueberries make my heart smile.

Rizzo on Rocky's Bed

I gave Rizzo a haircut while we were getting new doors put in. He’s such a great pup. He sits so patiently while I cut his hair or clean his ears. My baby!

Alameda Meat Market | Katy, Texas | Chicharron

When Mum and June got home, we changed and headed to dinner. We stopped by Alameda Meat Market for some beer since the dinner place is BYOB but when June and I saw the chicharrones we had to get some.

Cravin Cajun | Katy, Texas | Etouffee, Crawfish, Shrimp

Once we got to Cravin’ Cajun we put our order in and feasted! Etouffee, pounds of crawfish and shrimps. We even ordered extra and … kind of regretted afterwards because it was definitely too much food.
