my world. my word.

the day before mother’s day (saturday) we spent the afternoon having lunch with jake’s family at cheesecake factory at fashion island.  it was soo yummy.  lana was so cute with her new squeaky shoes.  i ordered my all time favorite dish – farfalle with roasted garlic chicken pasta.  it was made perfectly and the taste just exploded in my mouth.  yumm.  honestly, it wasn’t healthy but hey, i rarely go to cheesecake factory and it’s my favorite dish, gimme a break.  haha.

the next day (sunday), we visited my mom at la palma.  in stealth mode, i quickly hid her presents around the house with little notes and clues for a game of scavenger hunt. it took her awhile to find the first clue but she quickly caught on with a little help from the spectators.  =P  we got her a nice watch and a very pretty necklace.  afterwards, my parents, and jake & i went to have a really early dinner at sweetie thai.

unfortunately, the food was a disappointment.  the first time i went there the food was unbelievably delicious.  when we tasted the food that i so preciously remembered as tasting so good…it turned out very bland.  i have no idea what happened.  i am guessing it might be a different cook…but really…it tasted nothing like the first time.  i guess i wont be craving it or visiting back anytime soon.  but the company was great.  it was nice to talk to my parents and see what was going on in their life these days.  we do visit la palma quite often but we rarely actually get to sit down and talk to them.  it was nice.

hope all the mothers out there had a wonderful day/wknd.

lol…my mom’s a beautiful goofball.
