A New (and Yummy) Adventure
A few weeks ago when we were all out to dinner after my dance concert, Jessica was telling us about this really good Vietnamese restaurant near downtown that is actually across the street from Sara's apartment. So we decided that we would all go there during lunch one day to check it out, and today was the big day! I've never eaten Vietnamese food before; I've had Thai & Chinese & Japanese but this was a new adventure for me. I'm not a super picky eater and will at least try things so I was looking forward to seeing what this had in store. Jessica ordered for us so we weren't lost on the menu and it was really really yummy! We had some pork vermicelli thing I think it was called. It was good stuff - so here's to new adventures at the Vietnamese restaurant. I'm sure I will never get to go again unless we go during lunch again because Austin is not into trying new things as I am and would probably be afraid even though I'm sure he would like it. Needless to say thanks to Jes for introducing Sara & I to a new yummy restaurant and for listening to us complain about work for an hour! ;)
In other news, our new couch is being delivered tomorrow which is also very exciting. We can actually have something to sit on other than the floor (we threw out the broken futon frame when we moved so we didn't have to bring it in to the new apartment and plan to get a new one soon but are waiting to hear back from one of Austin's friends about picking it up). Can't wait!
What else? I had a moment earlier today where I wanted to walk out the door and say screw it but I refrained. I promised Sara I would warn her before doing that so she could come with. We decided we need to somehow get funding so we can just own our own business so we don't have to deal with this insanity. I'll let you know how that goes!
Other than that, nothing tremendously exciting to report or write about. Hopefully next week I will be more creative!

The food was nummy, jes did a great job picking for us. Mel wouldnt venture to the fish sauce, but i did and it was good too. im sure logan will be thrilled when i tell him about it. he loves new things and Bangkok City, the restuarant across the street is really good too but twice as expensive, so we've only been there once. yay to trying new things!
In my defense, I did not not try the fish sauce because I was scared of it. I personally know me and I don't like spicy foods and it was so good I knew that it would ruin it for me if it was too spicy. So I was better off not using the sauce because otherwise I would have made it too hot for me to handle and would have been sad that I couldn't eat it! :)
Now i will admit that I can handle some spicy food. and i really like spicy food. but the sauce wasnt really all that spicy, just gave it a little kick to it. Remind me not to let logan cook for you. he loves spicy food too. it would be spicy or garlic-y, i know you like garlic....not as much as me though! :)
