I think I broke the weather!

So, karma obviously caught up with me for emphasising how lovely the weather has been here and now I think I've broken it! The other day I was amazed we actually had some fluffy clouds in the sky, but this morning it actually looks like England! I really hope I haven't brought the English weather with me!

From fluffy clouds on Monday....

....to grey sky today :-(

We've been so busy getting ready to move in to our own place this weekend. We've sorted all the utilities, we measured up and bought furniture and yesterday I did a massive Ikea shop to get kitchen utensils and mattresses. It must have been funny to the onlookers as it took 2 people to help me get them in the car!

I'm getting much more confident driving around LA and using the interstates. As long as my sat nav doesn't drop out on me right before I'm supposed to make an exit, I can now get from A to B without having a melt down :-)

We also managed to find some time to hang out with some of our friends last weekend. We went out for szechuan lunch with Josh, his sister and Genesseo. IT was very spicy with lots of pink peppercorns and chilli but I was pleased I managed to try everything. It was really nice to just go out with friends and eat and talk, which is something I didn't do that much when I was in England. Genesseo got Josh an amazing chocolate cake decorated with pecan nuts and filled with a salted caramel filling! It was so yummy and we sung happy brithday and everything!
