anotheranonWent to two birthday dinners - one for ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
geekchick and one sorta for me. Discussion of movies and current events featured prominently at both. Discussion on the practical preparation and cooking of a bacon bra featured at only one, perhaps not coincidentally at the restaurant colloquially called the Meat Fountain :P
The other dinner was my introduction to shabu shabu, a slightly messy adventure for my clumsy self but one I'm willing to try again because it's tasty, filling, and healthy (LOTS of veg!)
It's also walking distance from my house, though not today - it was pouring half the day, including return home from practice which necessitated emptying my fencing bag and airing everything out (I'm working on the principle that water + metal and electronic wires = bad). My gear needed a good wash anyway....
