bonsai.john, cindy and the kiddies flew into LA friday afternoon, so i left work a couple hours early to help out at home a bit. i can't believe how big they are now! natalie turns 4 this month, and dylan is a year and four months. and they're so cute! ahhhh.
saturday morning dan and i went and got our teeth cleaned at my dad's office. then lunched at dai ho noodle house (best beef noodle soup in the states i swear) with my mum. we did a bit of shopping at century city - i found a great argyle patterned stationery set at papyrus - and watched observe&report, which is a really weird and disturbing.
afterwards, we stopped in at craft and tried out their new craftbar menu - nothing over $9! we had:
$6 snacks
falafel with chipotle feta
bacon&lobster slider
$8 small plates
veal ricotta meatballs
foie gras croquettes
truffle garlic sausages
$9 pasta
tagliatelle with abalone puttanesca.
while everything was pretty small, it was all very delicious. that plus 2 glasses of wine (a yummy tempranillo) and the meal came to $59 (before tax&tip, obvi)! and we were definitely full and happy. it was awesome, i can't wait to go back. it's totally worth it.
today was a nice enough day that we went to the beach and walked around santa monica. it's so nice to feel the sunshine and the sand.. mm i can't wait til the summer weather really kicks in.
