Coco

The day started out with an Asian buffet. We finished eating pretty quickly since there only so much we could eat. I was sad the crawfish was much more horrible than ever but overall everything was good.

[2018] 231/365: Coco the Movie

Scruffy and I finally watched Coco. I’ve heard so many great things about it but never had the chance to sit down to watch it but I’m glad we did. It reminds me a lot a out my Grandma’s beliefs and we are Asian!

Scruffy ordered his usual Chimichanga from Los Cucos and I decided to try their Caldo de Res. I’ve been in a soup mood that I even meal prepped soup!

Their soup isn’t as clean and clear as what I’m used to having with Caldo de Res but it was still delicious. I couldn’t even finish half of what they gave me!

Scruffy has long gone home with Luna and Rizzo. Tomorrow’s a new day of work and I cannot wait to see them all again in a few days.

To All The Boys I’ve Loved Before

Square Root Poke with Scruffy as our first meal of the day. We shared a large and had two small bowls of miso to go with it. This is a very filling and somewhat healthy choice. I really want to try their alternative carb choices. One day! Maybe when we are both starving enough to order our own.

We walked around Target, Office Max, and Home Goods before heading home. Scruffy played video games while I napped and I even watched To All The Boys I’ve Loved Before. I’ve read the book so I was excited to see it on screen.

[2018] 230/365: Korean BBQ Goodness

Since the parents are away, Scruffy, June and I went and feasted. We bought meat and veggies for our own Korean BBQ and it was delicious. Without my parents there we already bought less and still couldn’t finish.

Pizza Party

[2018] 229/365: Pizza Party with a Nice View

Since our floor donated the most backpacks with school supplies, we won a pizza party! We donated way over 200!!!

Scruffy, June and I dropped the parents off at Sissy and BIL’s where we all enjoyed an array of Thai food. Everything was flavourful and delicious. Sadly I forgot to bring back more than half my curry home so no yumminess for me.

Now to shower and relax. Possibly some Shameless.

Reunion with Nickie

August 16, 2018 by Mellie Dee Leave a Comment

Justin made me a delicious cup of caramel cappuccino with a shot of espresso using one of the many fancy coffee machines we have at work. I paired it with my leftover breakfast from Sunday. Twas delicious.

I was still a bit full from breakfast so when it was time to meet Nickie, I wasn’t ready for a full meal at Poblano’s Mexican Grill.

[2018] 228/365: Reunion with Nickie

We both ordered a soup with a side of torta. I couldn’t make a dent in my torta but the soup was on point. Now I know where to get yummy Caldo de Res! Makes me miss Patricia’s!

I haven’t seen Nickie since summer of 2008. I was a bit weary but excited. Butterflies flew in my belly as I walked out the elevator but they soon subsided when our conversation striked. I kept it going on her since she had so much going on lately. Becoming a lawyer, getting engaged and married. It was nice to talk to someone outside of work about anything but work. I’mhoping for more of these lunch dates and hopefully it opens doors to other lunch dates. Anyone up for one? Hit me up!

After work I headed over to Scruffy’s for dinner. We were able to sneak in an episode of Shameless before dinner and I left their house in record time.

I’ve been looking at houses but got sad because I’m poor. Someone, donate. Haha

Best Dang Lettuce Wraps

August 15, 2018 by Mellie Dee Leave a Comment

A little bit of ground chicken, mushrooms, corn, zucchini, and onions are all that makes up one of the best dang lettuce wraps ever! I’m pretty proud of myself. Now I just have to remember what condiments I put to recreate it.

[2018] 227/365: Rizzo & TVB

Rizzo has been burrowing under the covers. So adorable. I wish I knew someone else that watches TVB shows so I had someone to talk to or have marathons with. I need some Cantonese friends. Haha Someone, hook me up!
