Paul's Mom's Birthday
Category: birthdays
So for her birthday, we went with (e:Mike) and (e:libertas) to Hutch's. It was crazy good food. I got the poblano pepper which was amazing and vegetarian, and even the mixed green salad was good.

After we went to Mike and Dave's for dessert. I ate way too much sponge candy and caramel bark. We heard from Paul's Dad what happens when you're in the first division, and that Paul was either a really terrible or really good paper boy.

Wish I took pictures.

Erica rocking it and 24 Hours of Happy
Category: music
(e:czarkasm) sang at Nietzsche's open mic night again. Even with the burps, definitely thought she was the best we heard there. Unfortunately we missed the throat singer but a guy did a poem that was pretty decent.

(e:paul) and I think (e:terry) should go up and sing sometime, he's so good at singing.

After we got back Terry and I danced in the living room to an hour of Pharrell's Happy. It has a 24 hour music video online here . Surprisingly it didn't get annoying to me but I'm pretty sure it was to Paul, lol.

Turkish Rice Pudding
Category: food
The Turkish girls (e:paul) and I talked to on omegle recommended we make Turkish rice pudding, which is rice pudding with a broiled egg on top. On Sunday I made it using this recipe . We asked them about making it with chocolate but the Turks thought this would be sick. I thought it sounded good.

It didn't taste very good at first, but it became much better eaten chilled yesterday. The broiled egg yolk was a weird touch that actually tasted pretty good with the creamy pudding. I used tapioca flour as a thickener so it tasted like tapioca pudding.

Looks interesting. Reminds me of a Moroccan Kefta I recently made in a tagine. It had whole eggs that cooked on the top of it, which seemed strange when I was cooking it but turned out to be fantstic.

Shopping Sunday
Category: food
On Sunday (e:paul), (e:terry) and I went shoppinng pretty much everywhere. We went to Feel Rite, Pet Supplies Plus, my parents house, Trader Joe's, the Indian and Chinese groceries on Sheridan and then Anderson's with my family for 96 cent cones. I got the Greek yogurt custard. It reminded me of the sweet cream ice cream I got for Paul's cake last month.
I was also so suprised Terry didn't die because he hates grocery shopping and his knee still hurt.

When we got back home Paul made the giant artichokes, Terry made an amazing barley vegetable soup and I made Turkish Rice Pudding. I was food babying so hard.

Deutsch Omegle
Category: deutsch
In addition to the Flappy Birds fiasco, I've been stuck in 2009 and chatting on Omegle to practice German. (e:Paul) and I spent probably 7 hours this weekend looking for Deutschers to chat with. It's really good practice because Duolingo doesn't really have much of a verbal component.

We spent 3 hours talking to these drunk Turkish girls. Apparently I've aged poorly because they thought Paul was 25 and I was 30. We exchanged Whatsapp and snapchats and now we have to make a Turkish baked rice pudding called f?r?n sütlaç.

We also talked with a weird Russian boy who apparently was recording his sister having sex. He thought Paul was 24 and I was 26. Yeah I thought we were going to get arrested for that one.

Last person we talked to was to some Austrian kid. He was super impressed with Paul's German, especially when he pronounced these two redonk German words.
