After one sip of this, I decided it was too milky for me! PB & J smoothie from Dandelion Eatery (funny aside- two of the actors from the play the night before were also having brunch there!)

After seeing an amazing play (Adhere and Deny put on the Orestia Trio), Sara and I decided we were starving and ended up at Burger King! OMG. I had a Whopper (seriously, OMG) and Sara wanted their "onion" rings. With the zesty sauce. For the record, there are no onions whatsoever in a Burger King onion ring.

We celebrated my birthday early by having dinner at Massawa, an Eritrean restaurant. It usually takes at least an hour, so we ordered and almost polished off a litre of wine while waiting.

Samboussa- a fried lentil thing (but delicious)
Samboussa

I always get the same thing here- the vegetarian platter and the cold lentil salad. Next time I want to get a whole order of that spinach stuff on the right? Because that's my faaavourite. It's also funny how I always initially panic at how much injera we have (the bread- used to scoop up the food with your hands) but it's always just enough!
