Good Food and The Museum

Monday was such a fun day! Jose took us to lunch at Macaroni Grill (where he works) and it was so good. We sat on the patio because the weather was great.

Then we went to the Museum of Natural History across the street from USC. I hadn't been there in 20 years. Some of it looks sadly the same, especially the bird exhibit, like it hasn't been updated in at least 25 years. They have a gemstone exhibit that is amazing! I took so many pictures in there. I thought of my grandpa the whole time because he's a sort of geologist. Raquel wasn't really into the rocks but overall she enjoyed herself throughout the tour.

This cotton ball-looking thing is from the gemstone exhibit. WEIRD!

I want to scratch off all of those cotton balls :D

Really? They haven't updated the place?

I want to visit it soon. I'm a little discouraged knowing they haven't done much with it.

Well, it looks like you guys had fun anyway.

Hey, what's going on with your food blog? Inactive?

Alas, I haven't the extra funds to patronize restaurants of late. I have been cooking at home. I wish to continue the food blog eventually. Thanks for the interest!

Oh, hehe, I guess I could review the lunch we had at Macaroni Grill, huh? It slipped my mind as it is my hubby's place of work and I hardly think of it as anything else.
