Wahhhhh! School Starts Again I was enjoying my break so much, too. Quick recap: Tuesday was Chinese Hot Pot (and American Idol) day, Wednesday was Carne Asada at the LBC day, and Thursday was Recover from Gorging on Carne Asada day.
On Friday, YJ, Sar, and I headed to visit Andrew and his family in Santa Barbara. We took a little detour to the Camarillo Outlet Stores, but that was only because Andrew said we could and because we were trying to avoid traffic. Honest. The Santa Barbara area is beautiful, and Andrew's parents are amazing: they are nice, funny, and really cool. They took us to a South American restaurant that had an outdoor eating area, live music, and delicious food. Oh, and the mojitos weren't bad either. The next day, we had another amazing gastronomic experience when Andrew drove us to Paula's Pancake House in Solvang, a little touristy Danish village in the area. We all ordered the Danish pancakes, which are very thin (not quite like crêpes) but large. YJ got hers with strawberries, Andrew got bananas, and both Sar and I got warm cinnamon apples. My technique: smear lots and lots of butter on the pancake, drizzle maple syrup all over, cut the pancake into smaller rectangular pieces, put a dollop of whipped cream on a piece, put a chunk of cinnamon apple on top of the whipped cream, "envelope" the apple with the pancake, pick up apple-y pancake-y goodness with fork, and finally, stuff in mouth. Repeat. As I ate, the song "Heaven, I'm in Heaven" kept running through my head. The pancakes were good. We walked around Solvang and Santa Barbara before heading back down to Los Angeles. Back in town, I met up with Shimi and Thad at Barney's Beanery. Afterwards, some of Shimi's friends picked us up, and we had drinks at Saddle Ranch on Sunset. Somehow, we managed to lose Thad during the night...so I was very glad to hear that he made it back home this morning.
Now, I am struggling to get back into study mode...but it's so hard. So hard.
