My tweet was on a jumbotron

Hi all,

I can’t believe the weekend is over – it was such a fun one! Professionally, Friday was a big day for me because I presented for the first time! Luckily, I had two awesome co-workers to present with – I think we did great and had fun while doing it, which is so important. I’m really lucky to be working in such a great place.

Friday night, Miss Stephanie and I went out for SUSHI…. mmmmm. I think the last time I had sushi was in November? It’s been way too long. I need to pick it up more from the grocery store on random evenings. We went to Pearl of the Orient and it was pretty amazing. I’m really picky with sushi because I’ve had some “bad experiences” with it. I don’t even really like fish, so the fact that I love sushi is huge for me. And really, I love it.

Pink saki was served. Cheers were had.

For people who are afraid to try sushi or are turned off by it, I was once in your shoes. I really recommend starting with veggie sushi first and then transition into fishy sushi. If you need an extra step in between, try tempura which is fried. Not too healthy, but not raw either. Steph also suggested that sushi with cream cheese is another great way to transition into loving sushi. Sooner or later, you will start craving it like I do!

My fortune made me giggle because I added the extension, “in bed.” Tee hee…

Does anyone else always crave ice cream after Asian food? I do. Menchies had to happen.

Todd was gone for work all week and he came home on Saturday {I missed him}. That night we went to the Lake Erie Monsters game!

The jumbotron encouraged us to tweet to @TweetQTube, so naturally I did.

THEN…. the coolest thing happened!

I tried so hard to get a picture of my tweet being broadcast on the jumbotron, but I was too late. Boo hiss. Oh well – it was a cool experience regardless.

The Monster’s lost, but we had a great time!

Sunday night dinner with my family was really fun, and yummy! My mom makes an awesome pumpkin pasta dish. Violet is so sassy. She’s going to be a heart breaker, I know it.

I hope you’re doing well.

Cheers <3
