TGIFA

Thank goodness it’s Friday afternoon!  I get to go home and hang out with my 2 favorite people all weekend-YAY!  I feel like I haven’t seen Lu enough this week and I miss her.

I had a haircut today over lunch-I need to get a picture of it.  Well, I did take an iPhone picture but it wasn’t flattering so you don’t get to see it ;)  It’s just a bit cleaned up.  Before I went, I had some coconut milk yogurt.

Not very exciting quote:

I REALLY got chocolate this time:

I added some of my Mom’s granola:

I’ve had the vanilla, chocolate, blueberry, and mango version of this now.  Vanilla is by far the best-YOM.

After my haircut I picked up some greek food.  The vegetarian platter from the Gyros House:

Their bread is to die for!

I was pretty hungry, here’s what I ate:

I always try that red stuff and never like it.  I wish they wouldn’t give it to me but this “platter” is pre-made. 

I had a hankering for chocolate:

My co-worker got Thomas Keller’s newest cookbook Ad Hoc At Home.

It’s BEAUTIFUL.  I immediately ordered one for myself and one for my aunt-who reads cookbooks for fun.  I’d love to go to Ad Hoc one day.  Well, actually, I’d LOVE to go the French Laundry but I don’t think a $400 per person meal is in my immediate future.  I got to go to Le Bernadin when I was on business in New York a few years ago but I don’t think I’ll swing that for French Laundry.  I think getting to go to a 3 star Michelin restaurant on business is probably a once in a lifetime event.  I also got to go to 1 star Michelin that trip-Gramercy Tavern.  It was the first time I had pork belly!  Who knew 4 years later, it’d be all the rage? 

I digress.

This afternoon I got hungry around 3:45 and had an apple-a Fuji-it was good:

And then my co-worker offered me a “peanut butter puck”:

It tasted JUST like the peanut butter filling from a Dewar’s chew. Dewar’s was a local candy and ice cream (the BEST ice cream) company in Bakersfield-where I grew up. They are known for their chews which are kind of like salt water taffy but the peanut butter and almond ones have a filling.  This thing brought me right back to childhood  I ate 3/4 and was sad that I didn’t have a peppermint chew to cleanse my pallet.

Now? It’s time to GO HOME!

We’re having sushi tonight-yippee!

Do you have any fun plans this weekend?
