    You heard right. That's exactly what it's like. Plus it's pretty hoighty toighty. Like, the cheapest meal is around $13.50, but it's still not much food. And they only give you four dumplings. I felt jipped when I left to be honest. The food is good, but I've actually had better for cheaper from other individually owned places.

    It's weird but the best place I've ever had Chinese are these two restaurants in Vernal, Utah, at the time a city of about 11,000 in northwest Utah. One was a buffet and the other a typical restaurant. Both were run by Chinese families. They had decent prices and excellent food, maybe the best Chinese restaurants I've ever been to, and I'm from Houston where there's a thousand restaurants. I've been meaning to visit that middle-of-nowhere shit town just to eat at these restaurants again.

    Well hopefully things work out with your new gf. Will you take her to a nicer restaurant than PFC's?

    Went to a sweet bbq/house party in the OC and ate way too much delicious food, swung by a rooftop party at a ritzy hotel during the fireworks in Hollywood, then enjoyed a hot cappuccino and watched kung fu panda in a jacuzzi on the roof of a very swanky house overlooking LA.

    Best 4th of July ever.

    Hopefully there were girls present, though I've had just as much fun at sausage parties as at parties with chicks.

    This book finally came in the mail. Hopefully I can move past cooking the same chicken dish for myself every day.

    Hmm, looks interesting. Please use it a month and report back if it's worth the $40.

    I've had success with Food Network's Giada di Laurentiis' recipes, though it'd be a stretch to call her recipes "healthy".

    I have this weird idea that everyone who has had parents should know how to cook >_>, unless the parents were incompetent in this area as well.
