I'm back on the wagon with the morning Diet Cokes. Or is it off the wagon? I need to check that Seinfield episode where they ponder that same question. Anyway, there's a wagon full of Diet Coke somewhere and it has my name on it, apparently.

After work, I met Lindsay at St-Hubert on Ste-Catherine. Yes, we had dinner at 5:30 with the grey hair crowd and it was awesome. We had a table d'hôte dinner and stuffed ourselves silly. I skipped the cute wine list and opted for beer.
I like the look of the wine list

Then it was time to pick our dessert. Only losers choose the berries and yogourt! Lindsay was about to wave a white flag, but in the end, we picked a pile of poudding chômeur with ice cream.

We dared not walk in the cold (I was wearing my fall coat) and hopped into a cab to go surprise Jessica. Her Creative Boost painting class was graduating! We got to admire the work of our avant-garde artist friend. She did an hommage to Roscoe's. Then we had juice. A girl in a cake dress offered us cupcakes. That was weird.

Back home, I started on my project: to make a cake in the shape of my building for the annual Christmas dinner we have amongst neighbors. I used cake mixes to bake 3 cakes, then layered them with icing and quality jam. Off to the freezer it went to make it easier to shape tomorrow.
