1. Danielle and I eat lunch together every Monday. For the past month, we’ve gone to Mi Xao each week, at least once. This week, we went back for our favorite items on the menu. Mine is the Tom Yum Kung, extra spicy.
See the coconut shrimp? The owner was being nice and brought us some samples. Naturally, I threw one back and then bam! It hit me. They were fried and I just got a damn strike for The NYE Challenge.
Boding said it counts. I say it doesn’t because it wasn’t a conscious decision. Ugh!! I immediately confessed when I got home, so he then asked Kaye how she was doing.
Pizza. Really, Kaye?!? That evening, Carter admitted to eating chips and I had to explain to Boding that chips are fried. Hahahah. WE SUCK!
2. To me, this is heaven.

3. Rachel found a tutorial on how to make monogram Iphone wallpapers here. Pretty, pretty.
4. I finally got my hair colored last Friday. It’s my natural color in the back, with gold lowlights…
…then gold & blonde in the front.
Don’t ask me how I am standing in that picture, or how the tree didn’t get knocked over. Christmas miracles!
5. Low-key arm parties. This is one of my bracelets from Peppermint Lollipops.
6. On Saturday, I went to a food truck rodeo at Whole Foods. Of course I had Roti Rolls. 
Here’s the Funky Farmer: curried local butternut squash, carrots, red potatoes, and totsoi, pickled local beets, and an egg. 
The Roti Roll kids are opening a restaurant downtown called The Green Door. It’ll focus on local goodies and have a similar concept to Roti Rolls. We’re going to the Friends & Family Dinner on Thursday and I’m so excited! I will tell you all about it. : )
