dim sum eat thai

another stellar food day. had dim sum with my dad and canuckian - two dollars per dish before 11:30am, SWEET! we had about 14 dishes between the three of us, oh yeah baby. har gow, siu mai, bbq pork bun, egg tarts, congee, mmm...all my regular favourites and then some. i love being such a glutton with my family.

in the afternoon canuckian met up with a contact at the art gallery of ontario for coffee, so while she was doing that i spent my time at the henry moore sculpture gallery (see picture above). they had those blank cards where you can do a little sketch or doodle, so i exercised my long-lost artistic ability and tried my hand at sketching one of the sculptures, "two piece reclining figure no. 9". i don't think i did too badly, the shading might've been a little bit off, but i think i did pretty good for someone who hasn't sketched in years. at the bottom of the card you can write a little about yourself and where you're from - i signed off "canuckian's evil twin." i wonder if anyone will make the connection?

the evening was spent at salad king (thai restaurant) eating garlic shrimp, yummy. i always leave full and happy from that place. then it was to my cousin's condo for some "hangin' out" quality time. my cousin, "mac boy" and his fiancee are heading to london for a week's vacation this sunday, so i wrote down all the places they could go for some cheap eats! we were going to go see "king kong" tonight, but for reasons i won't get into here, i am back home instead, blogging before going to bed.

tomorrow i'm off to my friend ferris' horse farm for a "bake n' booze" fest, where we literally eat desserts and make cocktails. it's like betty crocker meets betty ford, nice. bring on the chocolate chip cookies and chocolate martini!

have a good weekend everybody!
