Coffee from Chinese Bakery on Essex .70
Cab to Nextel phone service place $6.00
2 vietnamese pancakes and dumplings $5.00

My phone broke, well the battery died so I had to get it fixed, no charge thankfully. It was so cold today, and it's just going to get colder. When I was on my way home from this party, I stopped at Dumpling House on Elderidge to bring food back for Rachel and I. It was her first Dumpling House experience, she loved the tuna vietnamese pancake.

I was getting her back with pizza and a toothbrush tonight for her generousity the day before. While being roomies, we plan on watching a lot of HBO on Demand, cooking and eating a lot of food!

This morning when we woke up the ground was covered in a wonderful layer of snow. I made coffee, hot chocolate and re-heated left over pancakes in Doug's new toaster oven that I got him. I went outside to look at the snow before it melted...
Rachel and I spent the day together, as I was helping her out with some packing. She took me to dinner at Union Picnic.
