Day 2: Last night I cooked Brandon a romantic dinner at my apartment - we dressed up, had candles on the table and a Billie Holiday record playing in the background. I made stuffed tomatoes with tofu, mushrooms, green onions, garlic and noodles on the side. It's a Vietnamese dish and it called for nuom cham sauce which I couldn't find and knew I wasn't going to be able to. I could have made it myself but it still would have been tough to find all the ingredients. It was alright for my first time making it, could have been better though. We slow danced to Billie, ate some homemade chocolate chip cookies, took birthday polaroids, sat in my kitchen and sang John Prine, Madeline and Neutral Milk Hotel. After the unfortunate event with Boone Saloon we came back to my apartment and watched the Futurama movie until we fell asleep. A wonderful evening.
Day 3: Brandon's parents came to Boone today at 230 and we all went to Cafe Portafinos for lunch. I got some really tasty pasta and the roll was incredible! Brandon got a free beer (Flying Dog) that he didn't like because it was way too dark AND a free ice cream sunday! His mom baked cupcakes and had letters on each that spelled out "Happy Birthday Brandon" and he opened his presents. I got to blow the bubbles and Teresa surprise attacked us with silly string, which happens every year. The funniest present was 3 fake cigarettes that "help" you stop smoking, they were for both of us, really. They dropped us off at my apartment and left and now I'm wating for Sarah and Crosky to get here to hang out for Brandon's birthday.
Tomorrow Brandon and I are driving to Charlotte to visit his sister Kelli and go uptown for drinks. We get to dress up! I can't wait. |
