French Onion dip to prepare for Chips and Dip Days tomorrow (Sunday) and Monday, 400 more Mead index cards, on-sale Hazelnut / Peanut Butter M and Ms, and a $2 Fry's Peppermint Cream bar. My Tostitos Homestyle Salsa tortilla chips did not exist in the self-checkout (they had to override it with a FOOD code)... and a lady just yelled at the 401 bus driver for "not stopping" when we are all supposed to board at the back doors now... I got home at 11:05 on a 407, at least.<br /><br /><br />Que Pasa Twist of Lime tortilla chips!<br /><br /><img src="https://i.imgur.com/hYHMoxq.jpg"><br /><br /><br /><span class="cut-wrapper"><span style="display: none;" id="span-cuttag___1" class="cuttag"></span><b class="cut-open">(&nbsp;</b><b class="cut-text"><a href="https://glowing-dragon.dreamwidth.org/6339358.html#cutid1">Que Pasa and Tostitos!

BOW DOWN TO THE FIRE DRAGON!</b><br /><br /><br />Since Auntie Catherine wanted to change our lunch at Pepper Lunch (which I have always wanted to try - Japanese Teppanyaki cuisine!) from Saturday the 15th to today at 11 because she has a doctor appointment in Richmond anyhow, I was semi-amenable to that prospect. I left at 10:45, but had to wait a while because she was at least 15 minutes late. I thought she'd be coming from Brighouse Station, but nope - she had driven instead! The manager seemed very friendly and personable, and helped me cook my raw rare Angus beef steak, green beans, bean sprouts, and carrots in the sizzling iron pan (which came with rice): I even got free miso soup and a free mango mochi for dessert since it was my birthday! Auntie Catherine and I talked about Frances and her baptism (ha ha ha), Auntie Emily / Ellen / Andrew / Brian, prayer for the meal (I guess...), hugs hello AND goodbye, Steph, and the Translink website being largely good for trip planning. (North Van to No. 2 and Francis? Sure, why not...)<br /><br />I left at 4:20 for Oakridge Station (just managing to catch the 407) to meet Mom and Dad, who were really late. We went to Nando's on West 41st, and talked about garlic bread / spiciness level for the chicken / roasted peppers / Ayler wanting to puncture the napkins with his fork / Ayler almost stabbing me with his fork / cleaning / tips / Patsy Hui (Aaron and Denise Hui's mom) being related to Uncle Stanley and Auntie Vonnie / all the buses going by / real estate. I finally got home at 7:35 on a 407. PHEW!<br /><br /><br />Mom, to Jon: "How much money did you raise last night?" Jon and I heard, "How much money did you WASTE last night?" Mom also called a wristwatch a WRISTBAND, but it's kinda similar-ish...<br /><br /><br />Random stuff from Mom and Dad: A Colgate toothbrush, 95 mL of Colgate Cavity Protection toothpaste which expires in April 2020, a Joe Fresh wristwatch already set to the correct time, a broken Cadbury Fruit and Nut dark chocolate bar (not that it matters), nine Halloween puffy skull stickers, a religious Gratitude Journal with a tree on the cover, and a Michaels ruled journal with an L on it.<br /><br />A Michaels spiral notebook with speech bubbles on it plus a bonus pen, a set of Paper Mate Ink Joy Candy Pop! ballpoint pens (orange / red / black / purple / green / light blue / pink / dark blue), and a birthday card ("YOU ARE... the [green] apple of my eye") with $20 in a red lucky envelope... all in a Vitamin World plastic bag protected by a Sunmore Ginseng paper bag with handles!<br /><br /><br />Angus beef steak with carrots, bean sprouts, and green beans at Pepper Lunch!<br /><br /><img src="https://i.imgur.com/eS9Q3KB.jpg"><br /><br /><br />A set of eight Paper Mate Ink Joy Candy Pop! ballpoint pens (orange / red / black / purple / green / light blue / pink / dark blue) which now seem to write curves better than when I banned them from my apartment in March 2013!<br /><br /><img src="https://i.imgur.com/DVAhx0H.jpg"><br /><br /><br />Cadbury Fruit and Nut dark chocolate bar!<br /><br /><img src="https://i.imgur.com/XQjBX7W.jpg"><br /><br /><img src="https://www.dreamwidth.org/tools/commentcount?user=glowing_dragon&ditemid=6153867" width="30" height="12" alt="comment count unavailable" style="vertical-align: middle;"/> comments https://glowing-dragon.dreamwidth.org/6153867.html speech bread patsy hui curved numbers nine bars cristi kerrisdale restaurants napkins roots cavities downward spiral richmond apples curve 407 bells ruling responsible jasmine lunch oakridge joe ink joshua nando's chicken frances puff birthday gifts carrot people knowing tree trunk thighs well dinner layers 401 eyes crafts birthday celebrations expiry dates catherine worlds richmond centre more notebooks aaron hui 2020 nearby right sets birthday doings red envelopes peppers fork ex-friends picturing_food safeway dog picture posts toothbrushes grace denise hui raw random garlic bread curved letters light ex-boyfriends lucky money better baptisms steaks brighouse ownership journals rice bags garlic dumplings puffs trying hiero blink-182 caleb covers running denise lucky money in red envelopes colors pop peanuts photos bloody you birthday wishes brian chan 2 (twins) music april time apple cash protection bannings meat country music monty python aaron birthday greetings fruit pledge of allegiance hugging chickens across the board wishing him a happy birthday points red sun banning chocolate bars birthday presents semi-amenable to certain prospects pink writing birthday buddies lunches world fresh hair visits sizzling green beans orange green apple harmony papermate stickers candy frances c. woodstock old boyfriends religion praying michaels tips september 17 march beckett birthday america birthday parties birthdays 8 uncle stanley truths montezuma happy birthday joy bean sprouts dylan little notebooks green 9 andrew exes halloween carrots visiting dinners cavity my birthday banners ayler emily ball and chain snoopy wishing bans bonus colgate gratitude layering prayer hugs angus dark chocolate cream truth birthday cards black treats pulling cadbury mini-eggs happy death-day with gordon religions way better than 14.4 kbps pet dogs gilbert andrew chan pictures country being drained eight treated out for lunch facebook nothing else matters wasting time coleslaw $20 books bonuses cuisine steak here comes the hotstepper birthday meals birthday cakes birthday dinners late chips brian just managing to get the bus bubbles toothpaste trees auntie catherine alliteration plastic bags superstore baptism surrey_sucks iron presents food dogs testimonies twins lateness expiry wishes vitamins michael chicken dark paper bags short posts color jon beers skulls working at a store sandwiches l store brands dates aunties balloons forks japanese speech balloons mike purple crafts things birthday girl curves joys beer light blue having thighs like tree trunks death anniversaries ellen stabbings dark blue broken rare balloon my ex-friends brands frances chan fruits dr. phil prayers vitamin corona extra ginseng times nuts watches felico's blue birthday duties wishing me a happy birthday 2013 paper japan Blink 182, "Wasting Time" drained public 0
