Hooters

Dexter and I went to have a fancy dinner on Friday evening.
Yes, it's TGIFriday, and we did not make a reservation.
Every good looking restaurant was booked up. :(

Therefore, we went to Hooters, which is not bad, but not very awesome.
We ordered roast oyster. It was served in a big bucket, in the shell.

Dexter found it very difficult to open the shell, but in a little while, he became an expert. He found another talent. ;)

Lunch box

lunchbox.jpg

I make lunch for Dexter almost everyday except for his court days.

Usually, I put mixed rice with beans in one container, and a dish or two of meat and/or vegetables using other containers.

Any good recipes you want to share with me are always welcome! (I cannot really think of much more than what I am more familiar with. I'd love to try more varieties!)

Gene Siskel Theatre -- Movie 2




Sejin and I also went to the Swedish movie, "Daybreak." This movie was a little more dark than the previous movie we had seen. It featured a number of relationships that were on the verge of being destroyed, rebuilt, or reborn. Pretty good, but I think I enjoyed the other movie more.

Before the Swedish Movie

As mentioned previously, Sejin and I attended a Swedish movie. Here's us together before the show starts.

Gene Siskel Theatre -- Movie 1



Sejin and I went to the Danish movie "Old, New, Borrowed, and Blue" recently. It was a nice little flick. It had moments of humor, sadness, and excitement. It was pretty good.

By the way, it seems Danish people like to say the following words repeatedly: "Ya", "Hi", and "Okay."

Here's some more pictures: Pic 1; Pic 2.

Dexter

Dexter loves to study on the floor instead of the desk. I don't know why.
He likes it especially to have a comfortable baloon chair under his chest.
I tried it once but I didn't feel very comfortable. He sometimes has really strange taste.
