To chantilly with extended family, bhat dal tarkari fun, catching up with everyone, future plans, Cava pickup & dinner, Xmas wonderland blows my mind, millions of dollars 'worth! [Sun 31]

In the morning we washed up, got ready and drove to chantilly to hang with the extended family. There we met up TM, U, DD, and SD. The eight of us were quite a crew and it was times of loud conversations, noisy discussions, and merry-making.

The lunch was bhat, yummy dal, Kauli, aloo to achar, sang and dahi. I accidentally picked up two bits of shrimp too.

With D D and S D, we made mutual-visit plans, I promised I'd oversee the fermentation process for chhyang and help them on the way. Also talked about doing a recruiting agency for nurses. Maybe we can actually figure this out, eh!

On our drive home we made CAVA orders online and picked up the food on the way. The service there was meh... they didn't give us the utensils or sauces as requested, and there were several strips of plastic on my bowl. It was just alright, nothing horrible.

Because my niece was napping on our drive back, we took this opportunity to check out this out that had gone all-out with the holiday decorations. We'd tried it before but the toys had been deflated then. Now however, things had gone alright and I saw it in true glory. Dozens and dozens of inflated, complicated figurines, bright colorful and cheery, placed next to each other as if a genie had granted a lonely young boy's wish to have the best and the most friends of all the boys and all of a sudden a gaggle of popular character from popular media like minions, Santa, pirates, that guy from frozen, Spongebob etc showed up, supersized! Must have been so expensive but this is what they really wanted since forever, probs!
