belated anniversary dinner

'just came home about an hour and a half ago from the city.
my uncle and i treated my parents to a belated
wedding anniversary celebration. my 7-month pregnant cousin and brother were also there to help my parents celebrate.

we decided on eating at E & O Trading Company.
everying was delicious!! we made do with a "tapas" style meal and it worked really well, especially with me and my low carb diet. by the way, the chicken and asian pear salad was really yummy. then again, i guess you really can't go wrong with anything on the menu. it's a place much like my favorite restaurant, Venezia Cafe, where there is quality food all around.

my brother pretty much took care of finishing up all the plates. it was nice to see him enjoy his meal, since he can be a picky eater. he doesn't always like what mom and dad make at home, so he's always settling for whatever he can get his hands on.

it was a nice time...just like usual with our two families.

new steps

so saturday will be the first class i will take for my event & meeting planning certificate. i'm pretty excited about it since i've always wanted to take this series of classes at San Francisco State. thank goodness i still can use my americorps education award, cause there's no way i could afford a thousand dollars in tuition.

i'm not quite sure where i want to go with my learning, but I've always enjoyed
event planning. i just hope it can spark a little more light into my
current un-inspired state.
