My Super Happy Birthday Celebration

My birthday started off with some healthy morning breakfast that my sister Tomala made earlier this morning:

She cooked up some delicious chocolate oatmeal along with some warm buttered toast and mint chocolate tea. Then later this evening we went to a local restaurant in town and chowed down some burgers and fries along with some good boozy drinks for dinner on my birthday.

After we came home from dinner we had some scrumptious slices of cake with peanut butter frosting for dessert. Here’s a picture of my birthday cake:

It was a chocolate cake with peanut butter frosting with miniature chocolate chips on the top, and there were five candles on the right side forming the number five because we don’t have a candle that’s shaped like the number five.

On that note, I’ve had a very wonderful birthday celebration today. 🙂

I’M HUNGRY FOR BREAKFAST! YAAAAAAAAAAY!!!!

My sister Tomala made some healthy breakfast for the both of us from yesterday and today. The first one is oatmeal with different kinds of fruit like cherries, blueberries, cranberries and freshly chopped banana:

I’d say this is quite delicious and it’s got cinnamon, maple syrup, brown sugar, pralines and a little pinch of salt as the main ingredients. Then here’s the next one which is oatmeal but with sort of a Hawaiian twist to it:

This kind of oatmeal was made earlier this morning. The main ingredients for it are vanilla extract, brown sugar, another sliced banana, juicy pineapple chunks, walnuts, strawberries, pineapple and mango chunks. I call it ‘The Special Ed Oatmeal’. 😛

Either way, my compliments to the Overlord chef.

Monday Evening Open Thread

My sister Tomala made some biscuits and gravy with scrambled eggs and tri tip steak for breakfast earlier this morning:

She also made hot white watermelon tea to go along with our breakfast:

Then I jumped back into playing some more Borderlands 2 this evening just to up myself a bit, and so far I’m getting closer to Level 38 as Mechromancer. 🙂 After I got done playing, I used a little bit of Borderlands 2 video footage in Shotcut to make an animated GIF of a Spiderant Queen minding its own business when suddenly it got blown up by a single sniper bullet up its thorax:

Either way, my Dad will go to the bank tomorrow to pick up some money and then my dad and I will run over to Fred Meyer to do our soda can deposit so I can put two-thirds of my cash in my Steam wallet to buy some cool games in the Steam Winter Sale and keep one-third of my money in the bank.

Family Road Trip Open Thread

Yesterday my family and I went out on a family road trip to go visit our two friendly elderly cousins who live up in Portland for about 27 years, and we totally lucked out by helping them get us a ‘new’ car that we’re looking for because the first two tries on getting it didn’t go well as planned. Anyway, after we got done chatting over at our cousins’ house we went into a restaurant called The Old Spaghetti Factory for my sister Tomala’s birthday, and we chowed down on some delicious food like toasty cheesy ravioli, spaghetti with meatballs, etc. We also ordered some good cocktail drinks like the White Russian and the Fruit Punch, plus we had some ice cream and spumoni for dessert after we finished our nice family dinner. 🙂

Then the next day we all went to an IHOP restaurant to have some breakfast earlier this morning. We had some delicious pancakes like the original Buttermilk pancake and the Chocolaty Chocolate Chip pancake which is what I ordered, some eggs, hash browns, bacon and sausages. After we got out of the IHOP restaurant and said goodbye to our cousins we drove all the way home so that we can plan on getting rid of our classic Oldsmobile by sending it to a local car dump.

So yeah, it sure was nice seeing our beloved cousins. Can’t wait to go visit them again someday now that we got a brand new transportation. 🙂
