Football playoffs this weekend.....

Go PATRIOTS!!!! ♥

 

Yesterday I had errands to do in Grants Pass and so did Jennifer so we decided to meet up when I got there. Met at Musashi's on H Street (around the corner from Safeway) ....

Since it was such a cold and gloomy foggy day I thought hot saké sounded awesome!

It was!

Also, I had some miso soup, calamari salad, and tempura....

Jennifer had a salad with their sesame dressing (sooooo good!) and a roll.. she gave me a taste..

Had a couple conversations with people sitting near us. One man had worked at Pelican Bay Prison and another gal, Mattie, had worked for Orange County Sheriff's Office! Always fun meeting new people.

 

Then to Safeway for groceries and PetCo for jerky treats for the Dude! Home, snuggy fire, TV, wine, Bruiser on my lap. Nice.

 

All I know. Nuff said. Happy Saturday. Ciao.
