We enjoyed a fun breakfast with Destiny’s family. They even scored some early holiday gifts.

Princess Bride – Cary Elwes
Our family is a Princess Bride fan, so I was excited to attend Cary Elwes ‘Westley’ talk at Powell’s for his new book “As You Wish: Inconceivable Tales from the Making of the Princess Bride”.
It turned out to be the biggest attendance event at the Cedar Hill’s location. Even though the place was overflowing – it still had friendly sociable vibe.
They started out with the whole crowd saying “As you wish.” Then Cary launched into a series of entertaining stories and anecdotes about the film – often in character.

What do you get when you combine dancing, choral, jazz band, and classical music with a holiday theme. Well you get a fun evening.
Holiday Breakfast
Our fav parks and rec facility has an annual holiday bazaar. Jasmine heard they also have a pancake breakfast with Santa program. After some successful convincing (I’m not really a go out for breakfast person), Jasmine and I headed over and actually found a parking spot at the busy event.
I was pleasantly surprised that in addition to pancakes they also served eggs, sausage and orange juice all for an all-you-can-eat low price. We chowed down while watching some entertainment by an Elf. Sadly Santa was not in attendance – but he did do a walk by inviting kids to stand in line in a nearby room for a photo op.
I tried to convince Jasmine to do this, but she got shy and declined. So instead we toured all the rooms and booths looking at various crafted goods. Only slowing down once to get some face painting.
Food Adventure: Vietnamese
Jasmine and I tried a new restaurant in our neighborhood – Bambuza Vietnam Kitchen. They even had kid’s meals.
