Lady turned twenty-four today. This weekend was a fun and busy weekend with her family in town, more boxes to move and a little soirée with a few friends in her hot, hot old digs.
Today was an afternoon of watching several discs of the Freaks and Geeks DVD set I got for her last year with her little brother who made the trip down with her parents. We picked up the last of her stuff from her old apartment and then it was off to Singapore Kosher Vegetarian Restaurant over in Chinatown at Race & 10th Sts. It was our second trip there, we've already reviewed it, but this visit will warrant an update.
After Chinese food, we hit up Capo Grigo on Sansom & 12th Sts. for some gelato. Lady had raved about the place and we were all eager to see what the hype was all about. Lady and I shared a smallish bowl of stracchiatella / espresso something / white chocolate. I wasn't too impressed. I recall the gelato I had in Italy to be more sorbet/sherbert like and not as ice creamy, am I remembering it wrong? I recall it being richer, the flavor being much more dense and explosive, but it's been awhile and maybe I'm remembering it being better than it was.
A busy weekend, now the workweek awaits.
happy birthday lady!
