More Birthdays

On Saturday we went to a birthday party for a girl that was born just five days after k. (Coincidentally, we were also married within a week of the girl's parents). The theme was Finding Nemo. There were hot dog octopuses, fish sticks, and sushi.

Finding Nemo Cake
Look at that Nemo cake! We didn't get to try it, though, since we left right after the singing.

My sister's birthday was also Saturday, but since she spent the day at Disneyland, we celebrated on Sunday. We had lunch at Gyu-Kaku, followed by strawberry cake from 85 Degrees Celcius Bakery at my parents' house.

We ended up ordering the "Samurai" lunch for 5-6 plus two "Meat Lovers" lunch specials for the 8 of us (plus k). However, one "Meat Lovers" would probably have been enough since we had leftovers. (We just cooked the extra meat and brought it home). Note that they don't offer the "Gold Platter" on Sundays, contrary to what the website said at the time.

85 degrees strawberry cake
I enjoyed the strawberry cream filling inside the rolled cake. I guess D and I have to make a trip down to Irvine to try their other goodies.

Man, that meat lovers thing looks good... I had Korean BBQ a couple of months back (mmmmmm) and it looks just like that :)
