My addiction to pizza

So after our yummy sushi and delightful ordeal getting home we decided to order pizza a bit later! She made me go up to get it, so I went as is! Ha!

This is the day my addiction began!
Oh yum! We also had a pesto artichoke pasta salad!


Me and my sissy!


I was addicted to pizza and could not get enough pizza! I seriously had it every day for a week, oh boy! I had to take back control of my life so I stopped eating pizza. Not forever silly just not everyday ;) Don't get me wrong I would eat pizza everyday if I wanted to be fat, but I don't!

The french toast at Table 219 is to die for. . .

Blowing chucks. How delightful!

This is me & my sissy at dinner before the chuck blower upset our tummy's and traumatized us beyond belief.

This is some of the delicious food we enjoyed prior to the train wreck that took place moments later. It was so good! I heart sushi!


After a lovely dinner at my favorite sushi place my sissy & I were walking back to my apartment when some random guy ran next to us & started blowing chunks. We ran around the corner to get out of harms way. He followed still blowing chunks. Instantly I started to cry & gag. He continued of course with his chunk session while I started to scream to cover the horrific noise & prevent myself from joining him. We finally ran far away and he stopped following us. That was one close call!
Yuck!

Pike Place Market!

We decided to start our morning adventures with crumpets & a spot of tea from the Market.



It's a great way to start the day!

Sylvia & I. . . . got our hair did!

My sissy is visiting from California and our first stop was at Starbucks to get some coffee before we went to Aveda to get our hair did! I decided for her what type of haircut she would get. It turned out great!! She was very pleased.

No we are not twins.

Sylvia is visiting! Yeah!

I had to leave my company holiday partyCheck Spellingto go meet my sissy at the airport and on my way out I was accosted by a jealous crazy woman. (My sister's arrival was a bit of a disaster) I was waiting forever in the bus tunnel for the 194 to go pick her up and realized after waiting about 30+ minutes that they changed the schedule. (thanks for nothing king county metro) So sheer panic set it my poor sissy was waiting for me and I could not get to her, sigh. I ran out of the tunnel to call her (I can't get a sig on my celly down under) she was just landing we managed to scramble around and get her to me downtown Seattle. . . wheeew!

Brunch with Bu!

Table 219 is my favorite brunch place ever! They make the best french toast and pancakes.
(My classic mmmm I love food shot)
Me enjoying my food. Oh it was so delish!
(Bu's classic where's my food shot) She is waiting patiently waiting for her food.
I love that we are totally color coordinating. No we did not plan it. Great minds think alike :)

Bu and I traded each other a pancake for a slice of french toast. The bacon is incredible. Mmmmm. . . food. I would eat here every day, but I'd rather continue wearing the same clothing size. So I don't!

Thanksgiving with the McNeil's

I spent Thanksgiving with the McNeil's we went to Justin's grandma's house. I made my favorite pumpkin cookies with a fruity frosting. They were gobbled up. The food was fabulous, but the entertainment was priceless.
We decided to end the night by playing with each others hair.

Thanks for having me!

Birthday Lunch with my lovely work friends!

My lovely co-workers took me to Palomino's for a nice birthday lunch! It was my second day back from vacation and I was still adjusting. It was nice to get out of the office. I got to tell them all about my trip to Japan and Los Angeles.

I got a ticket to the twilight new moon screening!!

So I got a ticket to the advance screening! I went and was surrounded my so many annoying little girls! Seriously WTF?? They were dancing around in the theater and taking pictures. Being very obnoxious! Why were they out in packs! It was a school night for crying out loud! Needless to say the movie was really good! I would watch it again!

We are totally team Edward! LOL!
Thanks Nadia!

Sober to Sick. . . is what turning 27 brought me

OK so I now go from sober to sick in 60! Well not exactly that quick, but you get the picture. I drink and then I'm sick. I do not get to experience the lovely buzzed stage. It is such a shame!
OK so I got wasted last night for my birthday. My cousin and I though it would be a good idea for me to eat something before I went to bed. I insisted on having chicken nuggets and french fries. So we stopped at Wendy's. I could barely choak it down so then insisted that my cousin ate my food for me. When I got home I had the spins and lucky for me when I woke up I still had the spins. BTW I had an 8:30am flight (or so I thought). I planned on waking up and preparing Nadia's breakfast shake, but I could barely stand. After she was ready and made her own breakfast (Sorry, I love you) we headed to the airport. Nadia gave me a pastry and just the sight of it made me want to vomit. (which I did 2 or 3 times that morning when I looked at the shake she was making) (fyi her breakfast shakes are the best food was just repulsive to me, which is very unlike me.) I got there and was in a panic because we were running a bit late. I go to check in the lady asked "what time is your flight" I confidently replied 8:30 she looked at me like I was a freaking lunatic and said "we don't have an 8:30 flight" I was fighting just to stand at this point and looked at her and said "HUH, like she was a freaking lunatic" she looked and me and repeated "we don't have an 8:30 flight" so I just looked at her in shock and she said (in a snob like manner) "it's at 8:00" I freaked out she was telling me I was late and blah blah blah and if my luggage does not make my flight then I am responsible for picking it up when it does. Then told me I need to hurry to my terminal. (As if I didn't already know that) Way to state the obvious lady!!
So I'm moving quickly as possible to security and the line is outrageously long. I'm standing in line terrified that I'm not going to make my flight (the thought of me having to wait for the next flight is making me want to vomit) and tapping my foot (I'm sure it was helping to speed the process) I'm close to the front of the line I keep hearing a page, but cant make it out (it was muffled) so now I'm thinking shit that's probably for me. I leaped out of line and asked the man loading his luggage if I could cut because my flight was boarding and I really waned to be on it. He kindly said yes. I thanked him repeatedly. After I got through security I ran to the terminal quick. Lucky for me it was the first terminal after leaving security.
I ran up just as they were about to close the door. The lady was bitching that she had been paging me over and over. I said well I've been in the long security line and could not do much about it so have a nice day. I ran to get my seat. I had a chatty Cathy next to me and gently told her I would be sleeping the entire flight. I said to her "have a nice flight and good night"
I was out like a light and did not wake up once.

Bar Lubitsch in Hollywood

We went to diner at a great little Mexican place in Hollywood. I wish I could tell you the name, but I'm drawing a major blank. Sorry!
This is how I started the night off:
A flaming margarita.
Mmmm it was so delish!
Here is a group shot (left to right: Beverly, Lorena, Nadia & ME) at the cute little vodka bar for Nadia's friends birthday. (we were secretly celebrating my birthday) I wore the little black number I purchased in Japan. It was a big hit :)
Nadia & I sitting around! Luis doing the same.
After a while Beverly and I got extremely bored so I suggested we should go tricking. LMAO!! The stuff I come up with. Ha!

This is what I found. He's pretty soft on the eyes. We had fun that night.

Not bad huh????
