New Years and Weekend Adventues

Happy New Years everyone! Our first few weeks of the year have been mostly uneventful. We got a couple pictures though.

We went over to the Olson's for New Years. We go to the Olson's a lot. They are the designated hosts for group events. They have a nice house and a fridge that is continuously replenished with beer, so I am happy to attend their parties. Kim (in green) announced she was pregnant! We're very happy for Kim and Steve. Kim is going to be a great parent. Steve will be a parent...

This is the Olsons' dog Sage. She is a very good dog. She is rewarded with tortilla chips.

Mirav and Lindsey. A few days after this, Lindsey took a spill and broke her collar bone. Here's to a speedy recovery Lindsey. Lindsey's husband Nick ate so much steak that he could barely stand at the end of the night. It was hilariously disgusting. 

I don't remember why Tami was in this towel

But I thought it was funny

A couple weeks ago, we went to a Thai restaurant called Pok Pok. This place gets rave reviews, We first saw it on TV. It's kinda like a bunch of little trailers connected to each other with tents.

They are famous for these chicken wings. Which were actually entire legs or arms, whatever chickens have. I thought they were pretty good, but Mirav thought they were too salty. Our other dish was some sort of noodle soup that looked like they scooped some water out of the gutter and put green stuff on top of it in a bowl. They were kind enough to add some meatballs to our gutter water that looked and tasted like vending machine bouncy balls. We were not so impressed. Food Network, you lied to me!

For dessert, we headed up the street to Pix. It was a nice little cafe that has some cool desserts. We ate our dessert before I could take a picture of it. Picture a big cream puff with Grand Marnier filling, topped with smaller cream puffs and whipped cream. Like a creme puff castle. It was legit.You can see the empty plate below.

The tiny spoon made me feel like a giant.
