joy eats

Sat. bunch of us went to Scharffen Berger factory in Berkeley. the chocolate was okay... people wearing their hairnets were funny and i realized i have a thing for lines... a lot of the pictures i took from the chocolate factory were pipes and roof tops.

For dinner we went to Blue Nile, an Ethiopian restaurant, and ate until we were about to explode. Something new i tried was the Honey wine. it has a light alcohol content with a strong honey flavor. it was very good but easy to go overboard since i have a low tolerance for alcohol.

afterwards, we went to Fenton's for ice cream. yeah, for reals. Eon was so excited that he made up a song about eating ice cream while we were walking to the store...

Sun. i hosted a dinner at my apt. for a few friends... i cooked up two mounds of Korean B.B.Q. and a huge thing of tofu pot. Amazingly, there were no leftovers. =)

later on that night, half of the people went to play ping pong next door while the rest of us stayed and played a friendly game of poker.
i also learned how to play Gin Rummy.. i have been wanting to learn for a long time because i always see Matlock (one my favorite shows) played Gin with his daughter and it look like fun. So after 4 or 5 rounds of Gin last night, i think i got the hang of it.
