Birthday weekend was sweeeet! For lunch on Sat Jeremy took me to this Victorian tea house in Clinton that Judy was talking about the other day and sounded really good. The tea and the meal were pretty good, but I am not exaggerating when I say my dessert, the lemon cake, was THE BEST FUCKING LEMON CAKE I'VE EVER HAD IN MY LIFE. It was soooo good.

For dinner my family took me to this chinese place I really love. Brody (Phew 2 and also the one who constantly screams if one attempts to take him to a restaurant) was not present (my brother in law who doesn't like chinese food stayed home and watched him) but the Phew was there and hilarious. He randomly poked Lori in the arm and was
like, "Cheese touch!" She had never seen him do cheese touch before and was trying to figure out where he picked it up, but I guess he made it up. Someone pokes you and says cheese touch, and if you aren't crossing your fingers, you end up with cheese touch.

Then, at one point the cheese touch was passed to Jeremy, and he had
to go to the bathroom. While he was gone, the Phew was all, "Jeremy's
got cheese touch! Jeremy's got cheese touch!" Which was particularly
hilarious because our waiter's name was also Jeremy and we kept
wondering if he'd come by and wonder how he got cheese touch and what
it is.

My family got me some decent loot. I got a gift card for Meijer, but also a lot of cooking stuff I wanted like a sweet-ass nonstick rolling pin and a spatula that's not half melted, and some books I wanted (Jeremy got me some books I wanted and a bigger pasta strainer I can actually hook to the sink so I can set it down and have my hand free).

Then I took off work Sun & Jeremy & I hung out more which was fun. We went to the mall because he needed some pants, and I found all these pretty nice shirts at Old Navy for only $5. They also had some dog outfits. I bought one and tried to make 007 wear it but he squirmed out of it pretty easily, even though I got the appropriate size. I took it back today and got a refund worth twice as much as one of the shirts I got.
