Breakfast at Quan Ju Fu (2140 Clement Street) by myself: green onion pancake, shrimp dumplings, jasmine tea: $15 after at $2 tip. After my meal I received complimentary green tea ice cream in addition to a fortune cookie—nice. My fortune: Trust others, but still keep your eyes open. Stopped at work to drop off batteries to recycle, apply Goo Gone to gooey things on my desk and door, wipe up foodstuff splattered on my walls from before I moved in, fill my Contigo water bottle, and pick up my bicycle and helmet. Dropped the bike off at the bike shop; need new brakes: $63. Home. Edited and uploaded photos. Edited photos. Picked up the bike. Washed the front door entryway of mold. Snack: popcorn with salt. Edited photos. Finally finished editing photos from Filoli. Dinner at Destino with Patrick. We used a $25 restaurant.com coupon which required us to spend $50 before we could use it. Cocktails: maka for Patrick, loca-ipirinha for me. Risotto balls. Glass of malbec for Patrick. Prix fixe for both: Patrick had seafood ceviche and sirloin with fries. I had butter leaf lettuce salad and sea bass. Dessert: pistachio cake for Patrick, bunuelos for me. About $100 after the discount.
