After meeting up with Rhie Rhie for some coffee, I came home and started cooking dinner so that I can use the leftovers for lunch on Monday. Then ring ring, “Genki Ramen in 30 mins!” I finished cooking dinner and ran out to the sunset to catch dinner with the usual crew. The ramen was good, although I wasn’t a fan of the slab of butter on top. Yes, I ordered the butter & corn ramen, but who would’ve thought they just throw a slab on top?!! After dinner, I refused to go to Genki crepes a few blocks away for more food. I don’t know why I refused, because I ended up following everybody and eating it anyway. If I was full after the ramen, now I was super full. And fat. But it was all well worth it.

butter and corn ramen, sans the butter

mmm~ delicious dessert crepes

I watched Wicked at the SF Orpheum Theater this weekend and got to experience my first ever live musical (unless Phantom of the Opera count as a musical, does it?!). I feel so cultured! The show lived up to its hype and I thought it was put together very well. The show carried your emotions up and down and the 3 hours or so didn’t feel very long at all. I highly recommend it, especially if you’re in SF since they’re ending their run here in a few months. I also suggest buying the tickets in advanced because they can get quite expensive last minute.

We sat really close… a little TOO close. But it was cool to see everybody up close, a little scary, but I got over it…


Inside Orpheum Theater, not too much to look at from the outside, but super nice inside!


To burn time between the show and dinner, we stopped by the SF Public Library. Look at all these Korean books! Or more like books in Korean! (No, I did not borrow any…)

Not too many pictures from dinner, but this was my “girly” dessert. Panna cotta good~

Jeanne pulled of a surprise wedding and few of the Michigan alumni board members were invited to celebrate with her and her husband at their new home in the east bay. I haven’t been to the east bay in a while so it was nice to be out in the ‘country’ away from the noise of the city. Her home was especially away from any city and in the middle of the forest. To me, it looked like a house out of a movie with floor to ceiling glass walls on a hill overlooking a forest. To boot, they had an awesome game room downstairs and even a bocce ball court!

A very pretty house!

Bocce ball!

Thanks again for the invite! Wishing you guys years of health, wealth, happiness, fertility & longevity ^_____^!

The weather this pas week has been a crazy mess… starting with the ridiculously loud thunder on Monday night to all the crazy rain all throughout the week. I heard on the radio on Wednesday morning that there were 600 incidents in the SF bay area from midnight to 8am, including 200 between 6-8am. They said the worst part of getting into an accident was that nobody would get to you for an hour or more because the police were so understaffed. I also heard the weather guy say ‘el nino is here!!’ about 20 times a DAY…
However, the rain god gave way for brief sunlight on my way home today… then it started raining again, but I a glimpse of this crazy rainbow!!
If anybody cares, today’s date is another palindrome! 012210!

A huge rainbow caught be completely off guard coming home from work. It really looked like the rainbow was coming out of IKEA!



There were crazy clouds all around me, but I must admit, they were pretty amazing to look at. And yes, I almost died several times trying to take these pictures while driving.
