Days 11, 12, 13

These three days Tony had work so this left Dom and I unsupervised...with a kitchen, and baking ingredients.
Before our baking binge Dominique and I spent an entire day critiqueing Tony's movie collection, pre-watching all of Tony's DVD's, making sure they were up to movie watching quality. We watched 7 movies in one-sitting: 50 First Dates, Step Brother, Anchorman, Get Smart, Mr.Deeds, Bruce Almighty, and Elf. All of which surpass the standard of funny.
The next day Dom and I (mostly Dominique) rolled up our sleeves and began our twirling and whirling of baking utensils. The result? 2 batches of brownies, banana bread, banana muffins, sugar cookies, sugar cookies with kisses, and oatmeal cookies. The latter, I must admit, was (obviously) my only contribution to Dominiques bakery.
Dominique and I have also become very fond of Indian cuisine (I know, wrong country. Another travelling adventure perhaps?) We can't help ourselves. This was our second dining there and the food was absolutely mouth-watering and the service was fabulous. The name of this fine place is 'Ashas'. We are first greeted with a smile by a kind, short-haired woman who shows us to our booth seats which are covered in pillows. Once we get comfortable the woman places napkins on our laps and assures us that our waiter with be with us shortly. Within the minute a spunky little man is at our table with a basket full of Indain crisps and a bottle of water. This is Rahul. He is an Indian native who we strike up conversation with at the end of our meal. He was born and raised in India and lets us know that the people there are far more friendly than the Bahrainians. He tells us of his travels to South Africa, London, and other European countries, and his dreams of venturing to Greece. After we're done speaking with him we say our goodbyes and let him know that we'll be back for my birthday dinner. He smiles and bids us good day and lets us know that he'll be celebrating with us :)
