Wednesday went to Taiwan Cafe with Carol. The broccoli and tofu served with brown rice was seriously perfect! When can we go back?
Thursday cooked dinner with Josh.
Friday I had my first practical exam in my series of assessment classes! Afterwards I spent a ridiculous amount of time in Target. Then I went to this art fair... I saw these earring [pictured below] by this artist that were just amazing, but $62...EH! Then went to Shyloh's birthday (Josh's bro's new girl). She's cute to boot and I am excited about all the double dates we can have! Did some dancing. Spent more time than previously experienced with Josh's bros. It was nice!
In the morning Josh took me to Coca Cafe for brunch! My omelet was very tasty, but a tad on the salty side... possibly because of the type of goat cheese used? The coffee was just okay. I really liked the orange marmalade served to me in a little cup. Josh thought the tofu in his breakfast burrito could use some inspiration (seasonings). The veg sausage links were very good, but $3 for 2 links was a bit much? Otherwise was fairly reasonably priced. I would go back here again! On Saturday evening we made curry, watched When Harry Met Sally, and Josh fixed my computer. Then we went to William Penn Tavern to watch MSU lose to U of Wisco Madison at the Big Ten Championship. But we were in good company (Chelsea, John, Meghan, & Shannon), until the ugly sweater Christmas party let out/ began and the bar was got crowded by not the most pleasant people (around 11pm). Also had my first fried mac and cheese bites, not bad, but not as good as fried pickles or seitan wings. Generally lovely day spent with the boyfriend.
Sunday went to brunch with Carol at Fuel and Fuddle. $7.50 for a breakfast pizza (eggs, cheese, spinach, & tomato) & coffee not bad at all! Actually the coffee was not bad either. The pizza crust was pretty fabulous making me think I should visit Fuel and Fuddle for some dinner pizza one day! Then we hung out in Club Hillman (the U of Pitt Library). For dinner I went out with Amy at the India Garden buffet. Very solid as always. But I noticed that they didn't put out fresh trays of food, rather they just added more food. That has to be a food handling no no! Regardless... tasted great and I didn't get sick from it! Went home and watched Gattaca with Carol. I saw it some years ago, but it was good a second time around, too.
Today is Wenqi (Lucias's) birthday! Dinner and bowling! I made cupcakes!
Tomorrow is the OT holiday event!
I've been going out too eat too much... well outside of my $$$. I have an itch to pierce something or travel or... not sure. I'll be happy when finals are over. 'll be done with the academic portion of my program this time next year! I'm going to miss Josh, Carol, and folks while I am away for break.
