Birthday Party
Jesus. Looks like someone just turned another year older. Grahaeme turned 29 last Thursday and we all went out to enjoy a lovely ShabuShabu dinner. Shabushabu is the onomatopoeia for the sound beef makes when you dip it into a hot broth to cook it. One-two-three swipes and these razor thin slices of beef are cooked. As you can see there is a hot plate around the base of the broth bowl where you can sizzle the shit out of your beef if you want to. The meal was 2 hours all you can eat for around 26 bucks Canadajin. The meal also came with vegetables but seeing as this was our first red meat meal in a very long time, not many vegetables were consumed. I'd say Grahaeme ate none.
It was a really nice get-together with all the ALTs from work and their pardners. Saya, Eric, Nick, Josh, Jess, Jeremy and the rest. Tamaru-Sensei from city hall and Nori Fujita from Ichiritsu came out as well. To top the occasion off Natasha had a surprise for Grahaeme. She made a special (and especially delicious) chocolate cake with the number 30 on it. Very, very funny. It was a great dinner and we were both so happy to have everyone out to enjoy Grahaeme's 30 minus one birthday.
