Japanese Festival of Fun

The Japanese Festival was quite fun this year. We got there and saw some familiar faces, including Charity and Steve in line for the candy animals on a stick. After being amazed at the woman's talent of coloring, stretching, clipping, and molding candy to look like a wide array of animals, we purchased a monkey. He's so cute! I showed him off a bunch. If you notice the red food coloring all over, it kinda looks like blood. Well, he's a baboon and he has a red butt that is really clenching the wood. Charity made two comments that we can combine into one. The monkey committed murder with his ambidextrous butt to keep his banana. But, murderous monkey or not, he's a cutie.

Other fun things, are that Shannon won a 10$ gift certificate to Royal Thai Cuisine. So we will go there some time and try it out. We heard it was good and expensive. Since that place has kinda scared us, hearing its expensive means it may be good.

Also, I saw three of my students there. It is really weird hearing people refer to you as Mrs. Dick when you're at a place like that. A comment made by one of the student's Asian chaperone was "How do you know her? Your math teacher?! She is young."

P.S. I spelt ambidextrous correctly the first time!
