Perfect

Today was the first Saturday off I've had in quite a while, so I had to make the most of it. After a grueling run on the treadmill, I started making a pattern for my sister' wedding dress, which I intend to make completely awesome. Then I spent most of the afternoon in Salt Lake with Scott. We ate authentic German food at Siegfried's-- super-fantastic. I must say, I never knew that wienerschnitzel is nothing like a hot dog, or that I would love rotekraut (red cabbage sauerkraut) so much. Siegfried's is like a deli/grocery store combo and has some really neat things. I couldn't leave there without my own jar of rotekraut, some European chocolates, and a bottle of gooseberry & kiwi jam -- which, consequently, is amazing.

After Siegfried's we spent a couple of hours perusing antique shops, then headed back to Orem for a Utah Flash game. I love basketball games, but I get so distracted from the sport itself. I love to people-watch, and spent most of the game making silly faces at a little boy in front of us. When the game was over, we wrapped up the evening at my apartment by eating ice cream and finishing Julie and Julia (we started it last night but both fell asleep).

I can't believe how much we packed into one day, but it was seriously awesome -- one of the best days I've had in a long time.
