Love Day
Valentine's Day is one of those hard-to-get-a-decent-restaurant-reservation-at-a-decent-time times for procrastinators. I had a coworker who asked me for restaurant suggestions three days before the big day. And he learned his lesson about making reservations for this "celebration of love" day - he got reservations for a dinner at 4pm. :p
Fiance and I decided to make dinner this year. It wasn't some elaborate feast but just a simple meal of Vietnamese fresh rolls. Since we were making these rolls as we ate them, I finished dinner WAY before he did (a first) because he couldn't eat as fast he normally does. heehee. :p And afterwards we made cream puffs. I love cream puffs!! I was a bit apprehensive about how they were going to turn out because fiance's mother seems to be the only one who can make them well in her circle of friends. But they came out just lovely (slightly burnt due to an overly powerful oven).
On another note, last week, I voluntarily watched my first full episode of reality tv. America's Top Model is so fun! Watching the girls pose and deal with the stress of the contest is so very entertaining. :) I'm also keeping tabs on The Apprentice through the web. hehe. Am I going to become a reality tv junkie??? We'll see....
