January 29th

I want to start out by wishing my Mom a Happy Birthday! We spent the afternoon with my family for her birthday. We went to Red Lobster for lunch. This was the first time I have ever been to Red Lobster as an adult. It was good but nothing I am rushing back to. I think the server we had really hindered my experience, she was not that great and it took us for ever to get our food and get out. We got there at 12:15 and did not leave until 2:00. That is a little long for my taste but over all the food was pretty. I had the Admirals Feast, a caesar salad and cheesy biscuits. I got my salad pretty quick so I ate that and it was pretty tasty but nothing I couldn't have gotten at any restaurant in town. It took forever to get our entries as I mentioned before so I filled up on to many of their cheesy biscuits. I will say that the cheese biscuits were very good. Finally I got my entrée, it had two pieces of fried cod, some fried baby scallops, fried clam strips and fried shrimp. I also got a side of a baked potato. The fish was cooked well and the coating was very good. The Shrimp was really good and the baby scallops were delicious. The clam strips were ok but I don't think I would get them as their own meal. Because of the biscuits I ate waiting for my meal I couldn't finish my meal so I ended up boxing up half of it. My wife didn't finish hers either so we are having left over Red Lobster for supper on Monday night. Over all the food was very good and it was the type of food that I can't really get any where else in town. Over all I would give the food a good grade but the service a close to fail. For my taste if I am going to drive to that part of town there are other restaurants I would rather eat at.

After we ate we headed back to my sisters house. Mom and Dad stooped at TCBY Yoghurt and picked up a cake on their way to my sisters. When we got there we went down stairs and played some kinect games with my nephew. Mom and Dad both played a dancing game with him and they were pretty funny to watch. Then I played Carnival Games with him. He wanted to play the Skee Ball game. The sad thing is that he beat me. In my defence it did take me a few throws to figure out how the angels worked. Then my wife played a rocket ship game with him, she beat him.

After we got done playing games we went up to the kitchen and had the cake Mom and Dad had brought. It was a peanut butter frozen yoghurt cake. It was really good but when is frozen yoghurt not good.

When we got home we played some games and did some laundry before supper. For supper I made two egg sandwiches each with one and a half eggs on them. They were really good and hit the spot on a night when I was not starving. My wife made some pop corn for her supper and I munched on that a little bit while we got caught up on the three episodes Fringe(Great show you need to watch it so they don't cancel it!) we had on the DVR.

We didn't have anything to eat before we went out with my family and eating breakfast every day is something I need to work on. We did do some cleaning before we left to get ready for our open house we were having while we were gone. So I am going to count the cleaning and the kinect game as a little exercises even if it is a stretch.
