Slept in. Started laundry. Breakfast at home: 2 pieces of leftover korean seafood pancake, 2 hash browns, 3 biscuits from a tube, 12 ounces of orange juice. Vacuumed. Put away bedding from Neil and Neesha's visit. Folded laundry. Drove to Rob and Lani's to celebrate Rob's birthday a little early. I had wanted to get a quick bite to eat on the way and thought about In N Out but instead I chose Banana Island at Westlake Shopping Center where I had papaya salad, iced coffee, tea, and water for $10.55 after tip. It was perfect. Matthew gave me a thank you card for his recent gift: Thermos Crush Proof Lunch Kit - Darth Vader. I swam in the pool with the kids. Max was over for the day. Later we dropped Max off at home then went to dinner at Marie Callendar's because kids eat free per paying adult on Saturdays. Rob had wild mushroom ravioli, Lani had chicken pot pie, Akemi had grilled cheese with fries, Kiana had grilled ham and cheese with fries, Matthew and Jeremy each had turkey dinner, I had mahi mahi cabo tacos with tortilla chips and rice pilaf. Water all around. For dessert we each had a slice of pie, choices were mostly some kind of chocolate with meringue or whipped cream. I had cherry with no topping. My gift to Rob: two Jeffrey Brown books: Darth Vader and Son, Vader's Little Princess. Drove back to their place. Drove home.
