Since I was bailed on by someone, Mellie and I spent a lazy afternoon in the chi-chi residential neighbourhood of Naka-Meguro.
We decided to check out the main Opatoca outlet and stuff ourselves silly with bread.
We ordered hotdogs for lunch- I had cheese and she had miso. The coffee was so-so and we also shared a chocolate scone. I definitely prefer the food at Macchinesti, but there is something very wholesome and comforting about Opotoca. Everything-the food, the service, the decor and ambience is infused with so much love you can't help but smile.
I had the chocolate devil stick to go, and it was sooooo good, like manna from heaven. Really.
Tonight's a quiet night in, accompanied by my books and magazines and I am contented.
I'll leave you with the words from Hymn to Him sung in "My Fair Lady"-
Why can't a woman take after a man?
Men are so pleasant, so easy to please;
Whenever you are with them, you're always at ease.
Would you be slighted if I didn't speak for hours?
Would you be livid if I had a drink or two?
Would you be wounded if I never sent you flowers?
Why can't a woman take after like a man?
Cause men are so friendly, good natured and kind.
A better companion you never will find.
If I were hours late for dinner, would you bellow?
If I forgot your silly birthday, would you fuss?
Would you complain if I took out another fellow?
Well, why can't a woman be like us?
