Brother's teaching schedule changed so he and his gang comes over for dinner on Tuesdays instead of Wednesdays. As usual, mom chose to eat out. First time trying this restaurant, and a Russian style (tomato base) beef stew. It was really good.
The phone call came. Dad's first aneurysm surgery is... this Friday.... 6:15 AM!!!!!! Aaaaaargh!!!! This mean I'll have to get up at 4:45. (T_T) It might just be easier not to sleep. But the procedure requires dad to start drinking water 2 hours ahead. Which means he will have to get up at 4:15. Well, he gets up every hour or two to go to washroom anyway. Not a problem for him. Mom is the one who suffers the most since her bed is on the other side of the washroom where the toilet is. Every time someone flushes, she wakes up.
More people then I thought. Huge line up. Not that I need anything from that place, but since this city is on the boring side, everyone (including myself) get noisy over small things like this.
"Yoghurt Cream & Lime". Smells heavenly like lime. Yes, European chocolate tastes way better than what we have here. (Brought back by Andrew. Thanks!) Then came the tartness which is as fresh as the name says. The next moment, you'll go what the heck?! They put those popping candies in the chocolate!!!! Aaargh! They're popping and sizzling in my mouth! W... wait, it's... actually... quite nice!!! Wow! I've never experienced anything like this. This combination works! And it get very additive. In fact, this rates as one of my most additive candies here. (Oh, and they did put the "with popping candies" on the wrapper. I overlooked.)

Nov 11... "1111" is Pocky Day in Japan. Well, at least that's what Glico set it as.
