what a nice night
July 28, 2005
Last night, I had my friends come over and we had a dinner in my backyard. Luca is leaving on Sat…sad…so I wanted to make Japanese food and hang out. It was nice outside, and I love my apartment’s backyard. Our land lords do great job making the building and gardens pretty. They came out while we were siting outside, and gave us yummy water melons. Super sweet…. They thought I was having my farewell party. not yet…but it’s coming so soon.
I wish I could have known Luca a long time ago, but I am so glad that I’ve got to get to know him better. I am going to visit him in Prague some day. I liked to hear how friendly people in his home town interact each other. It really sounds like a nice country.
Marcia, Josh, Careid, Paul, and Luca were the members last night. Some reasons, our conversation got very dirty in a funny way, probably because we saw a neighbor couple making out through their apartment’s window, which we could see very well. A good thing about the dirty conversation is that it started after eating. Otherwise, I would have lost my appetite for sure. It was funny though…
I made Goma ae (spinach salad with sesame seeds), Maguro no Misozuke (marinated Tuna with miso paste), Ume Soba (buck wheat noodles with Japanese pickled plum paste), and Agedashi tofu (breaded deep fried tofu in kombu and mushroom broth). Oh…vegan cheese cake! Thanks to tofuti cream cheese, it is easy and delicious! I tried to make something they can’t get from Japanese restaurants here. Josh was very curious about the ingredients, and that made me happy, because he paid great attention on my cooking. I love that…
After the dinner, I went to Danny’s with Luca, Josh, and Nate. I had a really tasty scotch with them. It was nice. I didn’t have much alcohol, but it made me sick later the night. I am recovered now though. I have an acupuncture appointment today before work. I am excited!
That was a fun night.
