I think we're going to do pancakes and hashbrowns tonight. Hooray for both of us loving breakfast food for dinner! :thumbs:

We're going to do sushi one of these nights too, if we can figure out how to justify the expense... One thing I'm going to miss about where I currently live is the kick-#### cheap sushi place a few blocks away. It doesn't look like there are any relatively inexpensive sushi joints in the DC area. Boo.

Which sushi place would this be? We always like to try new sushi joints.

Ah, it's called Sushi Garden, and is on Kingsway, across the street from Metrotown (more specifically, across the street from the Boston Pizza at Station Square). The place isn't much to look at on the inside, but it's ALWAYS very busy, and the food is incredibly tasty, large in portion and very low in cost.

Almost all of the clientele I ever see in there is Asian, which is always a good sign in an Asian restaurant...

Hrm...that's a good question! I don't think I've noticed an XXX store right there. It's on the same block as the Cactus Club.

I had a busy day yesterday so we had Chinese take-out from a local place we like. Tonight I'm going to use the roast beef for leftovers. Just don't know how yet! Something including rice I think.

Despite the claims of pancakes and hashbrowns for supper last night, we decided to do Arby's instead.

Less than $10 with coupons, although it makes me feel just slightly trailer-trashy. Oh well, I AM in Virginia. :P

I've eaten at Arby's a few times and I really enjoyed it! My husband hates it, and won't even consider going there. He calls the meat "mystery meat" and not roast beef. :lol:
