D&D Episode 1: Move-In & the First Week
It’s been a week since D’Laina moved in with us, and I’ve been slacking on getting this first video of move-in to you guys. Sorry for the poor quality of the footage, getting a better camera (with zoom!) soon. Without further ado:
Our Friendship is About Food
We’ve been to Denice’s Place TWICE for breakfast since she moved in (last Sunday morning and again yesterday). I tried to make hummus with our many cans of garbanzo beans, but it was too lemony and we ended up throwing it out. However, I made up for the hummus debacle with a batch of cookie dough straight from the original Joy of Cooking recipe. D’Laina cooked Kevin, Don, my Dad, and I delicious chicken and prawn scampi on Thursday night; and last night she concocted a new drink. JD and Coke, and then rum when you forget you’ve already got whiskey in there. Yuck? Yum? Well, she drank it!
D’Laina Joins the Revolution - Gets An iPhone
What was supposed to be a short trip to Bellevue Square Mall to replace my lost iPhone became an adventure when D’Laina decided to buy one. Seriously, do they put something in the air or subliminal messages in the music in the Apple Store?
Much to the chagrin of her boyfriend (a loyal Blackberry user) she’s now converted to an Apple customer and iPhone user with her new black 16GB iPhone. I love that she says to me, “Looks like I’ve joined the revolution”. Yep.
Craving Hummus
After my failure to produce edible hummus on Wednesday, I’d been craving it. After the iPhone adventure we decided to visit Orexi (a greek place in Bellevue) and, as usual, I ordered WAY too much food.
