On my 33rd birthday, Ben and I went out with some of my coworkers to see Dazz Band perform. We were enjoying all the lively funk music that night, I even stood up from my chair at the end, dancing to the music and waving my hands everywhere. What a fun show!

Discovering my new love of scotch while in Switzerland, Ben got creative for my 33rd birthday.  He bought me two Glencairn whiskey glasses, along with an assortment of nips ranging from scotch to bourbon.  What an awesome gift!

Switzerland January 2012, a set on Flickr.

Via Flickr:
From January 13-17, Ben and I travelled to Switzerland to visit my kung fu sister, Tabea. We spent a lot of time with her, her boyfriend Fabian, and her family as we visited the cities of Basel, Luzern, and Zermatt, and Bern. Not to mention a brief stop in Germany for Asian dinner one night! The weather was great for it being January, and the hospitality was amazing. It was truly a wonderful trip and I can’t wait to go back in a couple of years!

Addictions from Switzerland

Once I finish my photos of my trip to Switzerland, I will give a full report.  But until then, here are some things Ben and I got addicted to while in Switzerland:

  • espressos and cappuccinos (bought a Nespresso machine when we got home)
  • marroni (hot roasted chestnuts)
  • scotch (bought my first bottle when we got home, a Macallan 12 year)
  • chocolate 
  • tartufi
  • coconut chocolate yogurt

Cheese Fondue Time, pt. 2 on Flickr.

Tabea, Fabian, Lukas, Ben and I enjoyed a cheese fondue out on the apartment balcony. The kirsch liquor, warm cheese, and white wine “almost” made you forget that it was cold outside!
