First order of business. I’m fully vaccinated as of Monday. I took off Tuesday thinking that I would have symptoms but I am unsure if it’s proud to say that I had no symptoms whatsoever. No fevers, no aches, etc. I have already started talks with some friends who are also vaccinated to hopefully visit them and travel somewhere. Eek!

I finished another puzzle. This one makes me laugh because of how silly if is. On the newspaper, one section reads “Bark Obama Approves Universal Pet Care”.

Friday was my day off but I tried some loose ends at work then met up with Mallory, JJ and Jacob at Taste Buds Cereal Bar. Everyone that knows me knows I’m not a fan of cereal but am always down to try new places. The boys loved their bowl of sugar while I opted to share a funnel cake with strawberries, fruity pebbles cereal and dunkaroo cereal. I would def come back for the funnel cake. I loved watching Jacob eat with two spoons.

Afterward I had a date with myself. I took myself to Kura Sushi. It’s been forever and this place will always hold a special place in my heart. I don’t eat as much as I use to so no prizes. I did accidentally ordered a box of rice with beef. Sigh. I was too excited and pressed the wrong button.

Later that night, I met up with Brooke at The Rustic. This has always been a place I wanted to try and was so happy Brooke mentioned it! Super big space, very cozy and live music. Their food was amazing. I got the spicy chicken sandwich. DROOL. I’ve never had a super long conversation with Brooke before and was surprised we were there for almost four hours.

I was able to snag a reservation for The Cafe at Brookwood. This has been on my list since Alyssa got married YEARS ago. I’ve tried to get someone to go with me and was so excited Ryan agreed.

This place hires special needs adults to help them out and they even make a lot of the things they sell in the store. So cool!

I loved my shrimp and grits and Ryan loved his Mango Chicken (?). We finished everything!!

And then headed into their store where they sold A LOT of stuff. We grabbed a few things each before heading into their nursery. I’m sure a lot of the plants died from the freeze but this place will be on my come back list with Mum. She’ll love it.

Speaking of asking foods, I had a lot of good ones this week. Including crawfish an Rudy’s! I’ve also perfected brussel sprouts.

My days were filled with Rizzo moments. My favourite is when I’m outside with my Kindle and he just wants to snuggle up even in the colder temperatures.
