Day of Deliciousness

July 28, 2018 by Mellie Dee Leave a Comment

The Pho Shack To-Go

Scruffy, Ashy and I went over to Gordon’s to check out his house. We were out there for over an hour and our sweat was beading. We finally went and dropped Ashy off and picked up The Pho Shack for lunch at Grandma’s and Kenny’s where Sissy and BIL met us.

Fulbrook Ale Works | Richmond, Texas

Afterward Scruffy and I picked up Rizzo and headed to Fulbrook Ale Works where Sissy and BIL were already waiting. This used to be Texian Brewery which got bought out. Thank goodness because it was nasty. These beers are so much better.

After using majority of our tokens we hauled ass back to Scruffy’s because we were sweating like no other at the place. We played some board games before bidding them farewell.

[2018] 209/365: Indian Vegetarian Buffet

Scruffy played video games while I opted for a nap before waking up to head to Maharaja Bhog for a vegetarian Indian buffet. We’ve never been here but I’ve always wanted to try this style since I was a kid seeing it on the telly.

It was a fun experience and we were surprised we both liked it. Now that we’ve tried everything there we know exactly what we liked and disliked which will make it easier for us in the future if we ever decide to come back.

We are back at his house now and he’ll most likely play some games with Blake while I shower, relax and watch my shows before bed.

Jollibee Experience Makes Me Wanting More

July 27, 2018 by Mellie Dee Leave a Comment

Jollibee | Houston, Texas

Work was way too long because Noah and I had planned since the beginning of the week to get out of work early to have a meal at Jollibee!

Jollibee | Houston, Texas | Mascot

I don’t think anyone can understand just how excited I was to walk into this place. They have horrible reviews but mostly due to their service, having to wait for the chicken to fry.

I was mostly off the walls excited because during my whole college career, every Filipino person I knew that has had Jollibee praises it.

[2018] 208/365: Jollibee Happiness

  • Original and Spicy Fried Chicken – spicy is the way to go so I’m glad I got six of those as opposed to the two originals. They come with gravy to dip the cluckers. I don’t care for the gravy. Next time I come I’m getting a bucket of Spicy Fried Chicken (six piece for ten dollars) … for myself.
  • Spaghetti with Hot Dog Bits – I’m pretty sure there was only two little bits of hot dog in there. Pretty ridiculous. Super sugary.
  • Hot Dog – nothing too special. I make hot dogs better than this.
  • Mashed Potatoes – they are mashed potatoes. Nothing to rave about. Not enough gravy in it so glad I had the free side of gravy to add to it.
  • Pineapple Soda – I’m not a fan of pineapples but was floored but how much I didn’t hate it. I’m sure it’s filled with sugar too.
  • Halo-Halo – we weren’t too happy about this. I actually meant to order the taro or pandan drink but failed and got this but was still excited. There was way too much crushed ice that melded into a giant ball of ice and just didn’t hit the spot for us.

They’ve been opened for a while but I’ve never had a chance to go until today so we practically ordered everything off the menu. We have to come back for the rest another day but spicy fried chicken is a must!

Total Wine | Sugar Land, Texas | Free Wine Glasses

I dropped Noah off at home and headed to Scruffy’s. We went to the new Total Wine in Sugar Land and both won free wine glasses. I’m saving them for my new house (whenever that is).

We went to PetsMart next door to get Rizzo a new bed for his cage but couldn’t find any for his tiny crate so we headed back to his house.

Sunglass Hut | New Ray Bans

If I could make another picture, picture of the day, this would be it!

We had plans to go get me new sunglasses and a dinner as date night but Ashy convinced us to stay for dinner so we decided to get my sunglasses before dinner.

My sunglasses were crushed somehow and I needed new ones due to all the driving I do from home to work now. I made a quick decision and walked out with these beauties.

Fuzzy's Tacos | Sugar Land, Texas

Scruffy was craving tacos so we snuck to a pre dinner. He ordered two tacos, one for me, and a beerita to share.

Luna and Ball

We went back to his house and had about an hour and a half until dinner. Luna slept next to me when she realized I wasn’t going to throw the ball. So cute.

Ashy's Adas

Ashy’s Adas with some okra I brought back from Brenham. It was actually super delicious. Everything was great though I wish there was a spicy level to the adas. Regardless, it was a great decision to stay home for dinner.

Scruffy has been playing video games with Blake over the net and I am enjoying their conversations. Too funny. I’m about to fall asleep. Bye everyone!

Corner Bakery | Houston, Texas

2018 | 207/365 | Corner Bakery Lunch

[2018] 207/365: Date with Interns

I went to lunch at Corner Bakery with Noah and Joel. I’m surprised that I actually liked the lunch! I had a free soup and dessert coupon as long as I buy a lunch so it was a big win! I shared the lemon squares because sweets aren’t really a big deal for me. I’m excited to eat here again because i get an employee discount too so it’s another win.

Scruffy came and took Rizzo after work. I’m excited to see him interact with Bailey. From the videos I see it seems that results to sniff her butt. Haha Silly boy.

Wraps and Wins

July 25, 2018 by Mellie Dee Leave a Comment

Snappy Salads | Baja Shrimp Wrap

Baja Shrimp Wrap from Snappy Salads! It’s like ten bucks for the wrap with chips and salsa. They don’t fill up the wrap either so ii had  mouthfuls of just wrap. And they don’t give you a choice if you want the chips and salsa either because honestly, it’s not worth the calories. I need to copy this recipe because it’s way too expensive.

2018 | 206/365 | Won a Hat!

[2018] 206/365: 

I won my first thing at work today!! A cap with my work’s logo, hence the cross out. Noah and I put our names on the same sheet and were surprised we could still win.

Workouts, TVB, and Rizzo Time

July 24, 2018 by Mellie Dee Leave a Comment

I’m still sore from the crash (and all the walking from this weekend) but figured since it’s almost been a week it’s safe to start working out. I pushed through with rowing and kettlebells today. I’m hoping to add resistance bands and resistance loop bands in the routine soon. I really want to join a gym but I have nobuddy (get it? hehe) to go with. I need new friends but also #nonewfriends.

I’ve also been trying to go to bed early. So early that Scruffy called me around ten last night and I was already fast asleep. Don’t worry, I still picked up.

2018 | 205/365 | Rizzo and TVB Time

[2018] 205/365: Rizzo and TVB Time

Now it’s TVB and Rizzo cuddles time. It usually takes me a couple of days to finish a series and I’ve been watching this one for almost a month. I’m so behind!
