I've spent the last two weeks trying to get over a chest cold. It's almost gone - just that lingering tickle in the back of my throat from part allergy, part post nasal drip - which sets off coughing fits that sound worse than they really are. *sigh* Unless you finally toss your cookies. grrrrr
Friday, I met up with
We drove back to Alameda where we had dinner at Speisakammer with
Ice Cream at Fenton's! I dropped everybody off and then spent the next 15 minutes looking for parking.
No pomegranite sorbet that night *sigh*. I had rocky road instead. =)
Saturday, I picked up Lee after work and we met up with Joey, Alex and Deb at Borderland's Books in San Francisco. I've actually never been to the store before - but have bought stuff from them at various conventions. Street parking in SF is always a joy... NOT. I managed to be less than 5 minutes late back to the meter and had gotten a $40 parking ticket. Grrrr. As we were waiting for Alex and Deb and we were going to dinner after, I decided to find friendlier parking. I lucked out and found a lot with unlimited parking for $5. Yay! Had missed the T.A. Pratt signing, but Joey had gone and he got me a signed copy. =) I read Poison Sleep all in one gulp this morning. The next one doesn't come out until November. Oh well.
Dinner at Ti-Couz. Crepes!!!! Loved the mushroom sauce on my mushroom and scallops. I also got the Belle Helene (pear, ice cream and lots of chocolate sauce), but I ended up only eating about a third of it. Chocolate was on the rich side. Oh well, I'm sure Joey was sad that he had to eat the rest =)
