Winter Break Day 1

Happy winter break everyone! Now that I have my very own camera and tons of free time, I can almost guarantee a steady stream of posts for the next couple of days. And yes...all the photos that have appeared on this blog thus far were generously provided by friends. Thank you for putting up with me, guys!

So let's see...breakfast was a quiet affair in ktown at Cafe Muse. Samson and I were hungry after the somewhat depressing mood at the DMV and stopped by the first cafe we saw.

Almost deserted at ten in the morning.



Hey there handsome~

Samson, I don't know if you're comfortable with this photo being online...but I just found this to be oh so cute!! Gosh one of these days I'm going to put you in a pokeball and carry you around in my pocket...

After buying some nice containers at the Container Store (aka the happiest place in the world) and walking up and down 5th avenue we went to Hooters for lunch. Yes that's right...Hooters. It's not a terrible restaurant per se and the scantily-clad women are friendlier than most waitstaff, so don't be too quick to judge!

And we ascend...

I don't want to seem like a total creeper but I wanted to give an idea of the..uh..ambience.

I thought that the steak sandwich would be a fairly boring affair but oh how very wrong I was! I don't know what made this sandwich so good...the steak on its own was kind of tough and the bread was chewy but together, each component canceled out the other's flaws to make a harmonious whole. Kind of yin and yang, except in the form of a Hooters sandwich.

Samson's entree part 1...these had a fun name that I don't quite recall...Rio Grande fries? Mexican something fries? In any case, you can't go wrong with piling sour cream, cheese, beans, meat and guacamole on a tower of curly fries!

Samson's entree part 2...a basic bacon cheeseburger!

And finally...the wings- oh glorious things! Notice how they glisten with their freshly deep-fried loveliness.
