I'm going to need 2 more cups

Saturday night was super fun with Fish, Little B and Slim. We hit up Boiling Crab in Little Saigon and it was heavenly! On the table:
4 lbs of delectable crawfish
1 order of bangin' cajun fries
1/2 dozen succulent raw oysters
And the rest that you didn't see? 1 sweeeeeeet lobster, 1/2 dozen sweeter oysters and a 1 lb of tasty shrimps (I know, there's no plural for shrimp but why??!). We didn't photograph those because they came after we got the first three and our hands dirty :) Also, I have no shame.

Groucho "Peanut" Marx

Our very own! This is her rawhide bone and she was carrying it that way in her mouth for a few minutes. Mr. Pie and I almost fell off the couch, laughing so hard! What a nut.

That's how we roll...

Last week a couple of co-workers came by for lunch. We had the intention of making masubi but things took a turn. However, we had lots of fun!
Making your own sushi rolls at home can be lots of fun, cost effective and delicious! I laid out the following and we just went to town! - cooked sushi rice (no rice vinegar - add some if you want the real deal) - cooked spam - cooked egg - seaweed wraps - saran wrap or a real sushi roller to roll with
Here are the different rolls we each made:
Little B's
Fish's
Mine
and the winner is...
Mr. Pie "aka" Sous chef's roll

Dear Blog,

Dear Blog,
I know. I am one lazy lazy blogger. You should be ashamed of me. I tried to create the illusion of posts with my last 2 ones of just pictures. You want more than that out of this - you want actual words, descriptions, more than a sentence! Don't worry, Blog, I am back and I have a lot to talk about!
xoxo,
Gossip Girl
To get back into your good graces, I will start with a super cute picture!

Mr. Pie (remember him?) and the Nut.

On Saturday, we headed out to the Chips to celebrate PoppaChip's 30th birthday. In one word - BabyChip is absolutely perfect! She is gorgeous and such a sweet baby to boot. We had so much fun with our friends. I love that the newest addition to the group is BabyChip :) And of course, no trip is completed without THE Chip himself! Sunday...well Sunday is pretty much covered in my post below. We headed out to brunch with Peldia - a champagne brunch. We had a lot. Ok, Pablo and I had a lot. And boy did we suffer! I think we are safe from champagne for a while. I'll put this on my list after sake.
I will keep posting randomly and way out of the actual timeline - it'll be just as confusing as tonight's Heroes' season premiere!
