Our Sunday was a FUN DAY!! (Kind of!)

On Sunday, we met some friends for dim sum around 9:45am. We thought the restaurant just below our place served dim sum in the morning, but it ended up that they don't do that anymore. So, we went to a place like 15 minutes away. We ended up waiting about 30 minutes for a table, which we took as a good sign...the food must be good!! :) We had a nice meal which was good....although I am still craving an omelet and hash browns.
Afterwards, we went for some milk pearl tea. I had never had this either...a day of firsts for me. It turns out this was a cold coffee drink. The "pearls" were little gelatinous balls that floated around in the tea. My companions really enjoyed it...I on the other hand, did NOT. I like my coffee or tea hot, first of all. Not to mention the fact that I have a huge texture issue. Little gelatinous balls do not help in that area. At least I tried it! See....I AM growing!! :)
After that, the boys decided they were going to go go-karting and the girls were going to spend the day at the park with the dogs.
So, off I set to the park with two other girls, Bella & Zar. It was a very nice park, with lots of shady areas for setting up blankets. We picked our spot and lounged on the blanket, reading books and chatting. After about 2 hours, the two other girls left to go to the bathroom and walk the dogs. I stayed and watched our stuff. As I sat on the front corner of the blanket, I got a weird feeling like someone was behind me. I turned around, and YES! There was a man, bent over our stuff, looking like he was about to take something! "HEY!" I screamed. He turned and walked away, and I watched him...not knowing if he actually managed to get something. The other girls came back shortly after, and I called for them frantically. After we did a quick inventory, we realized everything was still there...except my comfort. I was quite shaken by this event. This guy walked up to our blanket in broad daylight, with MANY other people around. SCARY!
After out adventure, we met back up with the boys and went for dinner at a Brazilian BBQ place. It was a good dinner, and a nice end to a good weekend (for the most part).
