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

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!

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.

Willie's | Wings, Burger and Fish Tacos

Scruffy and I went to Willie’s before he had to leave to meet up with his cousin somewhere. He got a burger and was surprised how delicious it was that he doesn’t mind coming back here again. I asked for the Baja shrimp tacos but they sent over catfish tacos. Ugh! She did say she would bring me the shrimp tacos and I could continue eating the catfish. I thought they would charge me for it so I declined. It wasn’t until Scruffy told me they were going to give it to me for free after the server left. Whoops. Oh well! At least the server didn’t have to pay for it right? My good deed for the day. I just wanted to make sure I didn’t get charged for shrimp since it’s more expensive than the fish. We also got the wings and it was flavourful outside but not at all inside. Fail. I’ll come back to try the shrimp or burgers though.

2018 | 189/365 | Rizzo and Kong

[2018] 189/365: Rizzo and Kong

We stopped by the pet store so that Scruffy could pick something up for Luna and Bailey. Bailey is his cousin’s dog that’s staying for a while. I got Rizzo a Kong and he chowed down on it. He never really gets any treats so he was in paradise.

Asian Style Noodle Soup

I made delicious Asian style noodle soup. It’s a pish posh of cabbage, zucchini, mushrooms, and fish tofu. Nothing too fancy but definitely delicious enough to satisfy my hunger. My lunch for the next few days will be this but with macaroni pasta and I’m excited.

Snappy Salads | Houston, Texas

2018 | 172/365 | Snappy Salads | Baja Shrimp Wrap

[2018] 172/365: Snappy Salads’ Baja Shrimp Wrap

I was sitting there, minding my own business, when a secretary came up to me and asked if I wanted free food for lunch. I was hesitant since I had leftover Chipotle in the fridge but when she told me it was from Snappy Salads, I jumped at the chance. I’ve been meaning to try this place but never had the courage to. There were a couple salads and a few different wraps left on the table and I snagged a Chipotle Chicken wrap for Lil-P and a Baja Shrimp wrap for myself. I am FLOORED by how delicious it was. I am excited to order from them in the future. They have HORRIBLE reviews so I am going to omit noting them but their complaints were nothing major. Just straight pettiness.

Cravin Cajun | Crawfish and Shrimp

Work flew by and soon enough I was home and Scruffy and Luna were on their way over. Luna played with all the pups while he and I went on our crawfish and shrimp date at Cravin’ Cajun. This time it was two pounds of crawfish, two pounds of shrimp, one corn, one cup of mushrooms, and eight potatoes. I still felt it was a lot of food. Now that my appetite is a bit smaller, we’ve been trying to gauge what is the right amount of food. I tend to over order because I want to try EVERYTHING and I know I can always take it home to eat later. I’m trying to do less of that, but it’s still hard.

Tomorrow is Friday and I cannot wait! Another busy weekend but I know it’ll be worth the memories!

Happy Hour and Dinner Date

Poke Nachos and Happy Hour Drinks

After work, Scruffy came over with Luna. Luna has been enjoying her playdate with all the other puppies in the house.

Westopped by Yardhouse for their happy hour. Due to their slow service we drank our drinks, ate our poke Nachos and headed out the door.

Kendra Scott Party

We stopped by Kendra Scott to use Scruffy’s birthday discount and saw their cute donut display. They were having a little party for best friends. So adorable!

Grub Burger

We then headed to Grub, sharing a burger, fries, and brussels sprouts. They we’re even passing out free dirt and works shakes!!

2018 | 159/365 | Harriston Dark Chocolate Durian

[2018] 159/365: Dark Chocolate Durian

Currently I am playing Castles of Burgundy with Scruffy, Sissy, and BIL. I tried a dark chocolate durian and am extremely surprised how good it was. They we’re all saying how stinky it was. Kiss me, Scruffy! Haha
