Waiting Period
So I have a long ongoing process with getting a new smartphone, I keep talking about it and trying to decide, and then the months go by and I never actually get one. Last week though I finally took Karin's old Android 2.2 phone and we wiped it and I started using it with wifi. That's when I posted the Christmas Tree picture. But now I can't use it again... tried to start it up with real service, but turns out we need the unlock code, which is supposedly on its way, but isn't here yet. Until that comes I'm effectively without a working phone.. bummer!

Friday.
Black Friday!! But we didn't go shopping. In fact, I'm not even sure if we left the apartment. We might've.... but probably just to get gas or something mundane like that.
Instead, we made some kick-ass food!!
Peanut sauce, and two AMAZING sandwiches:
Close up of one of the sandwiches:
So, that's some thick french bread (too thick actually), grilled chicken breast smothered in peanut sauce (awesome peanut sauce, actually), a salad of jalapenos, red onions, and cucumber (with a somewhat sweet sauce), and cilantro on top. AWESOME. The too-thick bread just meant that we kept eating the extra salad and piling on extra sauce the whole time.
Seriously, I never thought I'd be able to make something like this, but it was really easy! Karin found the recipe online, I'll update this later with a link. Mostly you just need red curry paste and peanut butter, the rest is normal stuff like salt and sugar. And a tip, for some reason cucumber is totally amazing with peanut sauce. This was one of the best things I've ever made I think.

Saturday.
Went to Karin's Grandpa's 100th birthday party! Amazing.. 100 is REALLY old. I mean, he was ALIVE during Downton Abbey. Or if you don't watch that show, he was alive before World War I.
They had a photo booth set up, to act as a sort of guest book, so Karin and I got this photo sheet.
Karin lookin pretty good!
