''Oh What a Night!''



Jake was invited to a sleepover last night so hubby and I celebrated V-day date night a week early. Dinner at Red 8 (Wynn) was delicious! Pot stickers, barbecue steamed pork buns, and Kung Pao Chicken! Yummy! We also had tickets to see 'Jersey Boys'. Great show! We paid for cheap seats BUT got moved up a section! Woohoo! I will have the songs of The Four Seasons in my head for at least a week!

My friend Kristina




I worked at Carino's for 1 year, to the day! We all lost our jobs, unexpectedly, and the restaurant closed for good. My buddy Kristina had just moved from California, and this past Monday that's where she had to move back. I wanted to write a short blog (to embarrass her of course!) about the things I'll miss about her.....

  • Moscado chair time! No matter how cold or how bad we were at lighting the fire!
  • My dog loves you more than me!
  • Your pig tails
  • The horrible mood you are in EVERY Sunday morning!
  • Sharing my Panini's with you in movie theaters
  • Drinking Moscado (ok, maybe that's in general and not only specific to you!)
  • Calico Jacks!
  • Our dinners at Carraba's
  • Drunk Uno!
  • Running in heels to a concert, well I won't miss that too much!
  • Seeing you in your fluffy sleeves at work
  • Watching you fight with Jackson
I'm gonna keep it short, I know I can call you all the time and we will text like champions, BUT I'm going to miss you dearly! Play the lotto for me so you can fly me in every weekend!

Sushi Night!



For dinner tonight I made my own sushi! From start to finish it was 2 hours ( 1 hour of that was waiting for rice to drain, then for it to cook, and then again for it to cool off). My variation on the California roll had cucumber, red bell pepper, imitation crab, spicy mayo, and avocado. Served with some edamame and a bowl of rice it was better than any restaurant I would have had to get dressed up for!
