Well I've always been the kind that doesn't like to sit around at home on a Friday night so I was super pleased to accept an invite to a game night yesterday. I was invited by the family that owns the Mexican/Chinese/Japanese/American/Italian Restaurant. I had a really good time. It turned out to be two parties actually.
We went to the first house and ate arroz con pollo made by the cuban mother that was visiting from Florida- it was really good. We played a round of Taboo there (The boys are very proud of their taboo game because it is the electronic kind; they say it is no longer being made and on ebay it's like at least $75) and the boys won. The family was then getting ready to leave and I was told that I was given another invitation to come over to their house where they had invited people over for dinner that night. Honestly I was somewhat confused because I felt like I had just had dinner (I felt like maybe I had been screened at the first party and I guess I'd been found acceptable because I got invited to te second party haha). I accepted the invitation though and hung out with the younger brother between parties, he gave me a tour of Bethel in the snow- it looks alot different then it did in the summer, it's so pretty with all the snow.
We then went to party #2 and were served steaks , I was full from the last meal but ate some to be polite, it was super good- it's good to be friends with a chef. :) We then played 2 rounds of taboo and the girls won the first round! They boys were sore losers (reminds me of another group of boys I know...) and claimed they let us win and then proceeded to beat us in the second round feeling extremely proud and victorious after their win (i'm sure they cheated somehow).
It was a really good night. Once again I was blessed by Bethel hospitality.
My friends Tiffany finds it so crazy that I'm making so many random connections and getting so many random invitations, she says this is not usual for Bethel. I had no idea, I figured it was. I figured restaurant owners invited customers over all the time for game night hahaha. Ok well I just figured it was a friend of a friend kind of thing, I figure everyone in Bethel is friends. haha.
Now I'm about to go to Saturday Market with Tiffany, should be an adventure, always is with Tiff. :)
Oh and guess what I got in the mail yesterday?! My Christmas door mat! I'm so excited. Too bad I left it in Joey's car... I'll have to get it soon so i can place it where it belongs in front of my door. I still haven't gotten my stuff from Drugstore.com though, it's been FOREVER. I'm getting quite perturbed! I don't have anything to wash dishes with or wash clothes, the situation is getting quite desperate, but I don't want to buy super expensive soap from AC when i have stuff coming, I've waited this long I can't give in now.
Talk to you soon.
love with all my heart.

When Jorge heard about the sore loser boys, he said "What are you talking about? We are champions we never lose to you guys."
