blog lagging

yes yes i know i've been lagging on the blogging. what have i been doing?

well diana, teddio and about 4 other people decided to plan a boarding day trip to tahoe. there was a cancellation and diana asked me to join. all these years we have never gone boarding together!

also had some notable eating experiences. recently went to Saizo in sunnyvale to catch up with john. yummm! although it's definitely not a place you want to go to if on a diet. the grilled pork belly is delish but very fatty. also tried out Bistro Vida in Menlo Park. frensh bistro. i had the escargot, coq au vin (chicken in red wine stew) and the bread pudding. the escargot was in pesto sauce which i have never tried. I also tried some duck pate - very rich and tasty.

in other news, i am no longer at my company. cest la vie. although it was really interesting in the beginning, i have already been looking around for other positions. only now i can look for other positions and have severence! :) so now i'm actively on the job hunt again. all last week i got my network on. we'll see where i end up.

that's a cute picture! it doesn't go all the way down so i can only speculate why you're standing so far apart. you just ran over somebody and their unconscious body is laying face down between you? or maybe you guys weren't really on snowboards and are too embarrassed to show the upside-down plastic trashbin lid you were pulling each other around on. ;)

how did you like the escargot? i like french food in general, but escargot doesn't do it for me. i love frog legs...btw, it's "coq au vin." "cou au vin" means "neck with wine," which probably isn't quite as delicious...

good luck with your job search! i'm sure you'll find something great soon.

oh and i really liked the escargot. but i never had any problem eating snails. since i think the texture is similar to abalone and i love abalone.

i love abalone too, but the texture of escargot was much slimier and squishier to me. did they have rabbit at that restaurant? rabbit is good...
