VERY disappointed cake from Whole Foods...

I had to have a cake today because it's my kid's B-day.
He doesn't like cake, but even so we need to have a cake to sing a song.
Especially if you have 2 years old like me, He need to know what we do on Birthday.

So, I went Wegmans first. We are very picky about cake. No one like butter cream cake, my daughter likes chocolate but not others, My oldest doesn't liket cake at all. My 2 years old didn't care because he doesn't know much about cake. Mu husband is not a cake person. I like strawberry cake.
I couldn't find any cake we like at Wegmans, so I decided to go Whole Foods because I knew they have a strawberry short cake.

So I got one, looks a little different then before but I didn't get the cake for at least a year, I thought they changed a little.

My 2years old enjoyed so much for singing B-day song and blow candles. Actually we all enjoyed the part. 
Then cake, When I cut the cake, I realize that sponges were so wet and strawberries are that fresh like last time. They used to make with fresh strawberries and didn't use any syrups thing but now syrups are everywhere! whipped cream was the best part of this cake. 

that's it! 



I'm so disappointed the cake. I usually share with my friend's family because we can't eat much.
(if you look at the pic, you will know how much we ate that night. only 1/4)
But I couldn't call her tonight because it's not that good...

If I got this cake from other grocery store, I may expect this quality, but not from Whole Foods.
Whole Foods must be the best at least fresh part.

Anyway, We are never ever ever EVER getting back together!

Bye!

Hair cut at Hair Story in Fairfax

My hair is typical asian hair.  Black, thick, heavy...

12years ago, I really needed to get hair cut, so I decided to go somewhere in Tysons mall.
I looked 3 salons. 1. cheep, 2. mediam and 3 a little expensive.
I picked 2. Hair cut is about $50.
I showed my pic and told her to do just like this. It's not difficult, just a semi long hair. But I had worst experience at there in my life. I cried when I got home...


Anyway,

I have to find salon since I don't go my Country so often and my friend told me this salon.

This salon, "Hair Story", right next to H-mart in Fairfax. My stylist is Chris. this salon is Korean owned. she is busy. you should call a couple days before you wanna go.

I usually get shampoo, cut and blow. It takes about  30min to finish!
And it just $30 plus tips.



I'm not so crazy about hair, I usually tell her how long I want to have and she cut whatever she thinks it's good for me. And I'm happy every time!

Glory Days in Reston

Glory Days is not a fancy restaurant. It's not for good food but we go pretty often and I'll tell you why...

1.It's very close to my house. We will be at table 15min after we decided to go.
2. Inside is pretty loud. It's super great to bring noisy kids!



Inside, there are TVs everywhere so Daddy can watch football while kids enjoy cartoons.
And this is called "Macho Nacho"($6.99) and this is my favorite. This is half portion but great for 4 people.


This is new! and I think it's seasonal. "Chicago styles Hotdogs" 2 for $9.59.
Daddy said this was delicious!


This is my favorite. I order every time.
"Crispy Shrimp Tacos"$8.99
You can pick either Grilled chicken, Grilled fish or Crispy shrimp and also pick side too.


This is kids pasta.$3.99 Great price!


inside of restaurant. you can always find neighbors.



Oh Don't forget to buy giftcard at Costco. They sell $100 glory days giftcard for $79.

Enjoy!
