Baby two for the year

More great news - my older brother Scott and my sister in-law Donna had a beautiful baby girl, Zeia. No pictures yet. All is well and my sister in-law and Zeia left the hospital on Saturday happy, healthy, and of course, tired.

Other news - Francis got a job at UCSF!!! That means more BFF time and going to UCSF events together - woo-hoo!

BFF: Acronym - Best Friends Forever

Tim and I have been busy as usual. Meeting friends, eating and eating even more. There is nothing better than spending time with friends and trying new restaurants. Last week we went to a cool tea house with Tim's friend Suguru. Cool place in the Castro and they had sets of food paired with tea. I was in heaven. So many choices and of course I ordered the English Tea set. Loved it! Then Korean with Tim's co-worker Ryan, aka Rye Bread or The Bread, I prefer Rye Bread, and finally we had Eritrean food with our new friends who just moved from Hawaii, Daisy and Andres. Eritrean is like Ethiopian (picture to the right) and just down the road, well about 2 miles, from our house.

This week more Korean with Tim's friend Aaron, but this time I cooked the meat and then just bought all the side dish vegetables from a nearby Korean market and Burmese with my BFF Francis and his friend visiting from Hawaii Dottie.

Tim and I also went tried a new Szechuan restaurant and loved it! We went with Francis to a very neon and young Szechuan restaurant and this was by far better. They had a big 'ol fish tank in the entryway. That is a sign that it is a "real" Chinese restaurant. It gets even more real if the fish is what you can eat, but this fish tank was for decoration only. I think.

Tim leaves for his man bonding weekend in San Diego on Thursday with his college buddies and I will have my BFF weekend with Francis. I see more eating and then eating more in the upcoming week. It doesn't get any better.

And thanks to my girlfriend Lara we are getting...........Mario Kart!!!!!! Eating and Wii - life is good.
