My birthday

April 27, 2013

On my birthday, we had very nice wether. My darling was really busy, we could not do anything on my birthday. I went to one of my favorite restaurant with my darling for our dinner. The next day, we went to the movie theater to watch the new Tom Cruise movie. It was very interesting. Tom Cruise did a good job.

Restaurant Week 2013

April 27, 2013

Last Monday was girl's night. My friends and I went to out to dinner. At that time, we had a "Restaurant Week" in Seattle. Many restaurants have their special menu for that event ( 3 course for $28 ). We went to a Spanish restaurant which is called Harvest Vine. I ordered a bottle of Spanish wine, tomato soup, a pan fried cod and coconut flan. They were soooooo delicious.

I had a great time with my friends and these dishes.

My wine

April 27, 2013

Last week, I went to the COLUMBIA WINERY with my darling to pick up my wine. I joined their CELLAR CLUB last year. I can enjoy two red wine selections every other month. When I go there, I can have a wine tasting (I love it!!). Also, they have a lot of different discount systems. It is a cool members benefit.

I picked up February and April wine selections. Now, I have four bottles of my wine in my house♡

A D&D night

April 6, 2013

We had a cool western game night with our favorite friends. I never played that kind of game in all of my life. I always want to learn something new. So, I was very excited to studying this new game.

The name is DUNGEONS & DRAGONS. It is a story telling game. We have to create our own characters and go on an adventure. It is a really creative game!!

The first day, we started the game at 7:30 P.M., then we could not stop playing the game until 2:00 A.M. We will have a D&D night again........

Spring came to Seattle

April 6, 2013

I saw a lot of cherry blossom flowers in Seattle. I am a pretty lucky person, because I can see cherry blossom flowers every year in the U.S.A.

I can feel some Japanese culture here, even if I don't live in Japan anymore. I miss Japan, Japanese family, Japanese friends and Japanese culture.

Someday, I want to go back to Japan soon........

A pizza dinner

April 6, 2013

The other day, my darling made a yummy pizza dinner for me. He bought two half cooked pizzas at WHOLE FOODS, and then he added a lot of mushrooms, olives, sun dried tomatoes and smoked mozzarella cheese. Before I came home, he started baking the Brian's special pizza.

When I came home from my work, the dinner was ready to go!! He prepared my favorite red wine, too. I was so happy!! I have nice, sweet and lovely husband. Thank you honey♡
