It was Cristina’s birthday on Sunday, but we only got to celebrate it Monday evening. We went out to have dinner at a restaurant in Regie, “Pui de Urs” (Bear-cub). K and I arrived there at about 11 PM, and Cristina and our other room-mate, Aura arrived ten minutes later. Cris was tired and a bit stressed and upset, I could tell, but she looked really good, although she didn’t want to believe it.

We gave her the presents that of course she loved. I got her a pair of earrings and K got her orange gloves and some exquisite chocolates. She also got a beautiful bunch of roses. Little by little she started feeling better and we ordered – beer and food. Of course, everyone laughed at me again because I wasn’t able to finish one bottle in 2 and a half hours…

Of course I talked a lot to Cris and dearest K took advantage of it and finished my tomatoes and cheese salad. But I forgave him. Cris also shared some of the chocolates with us but we still ordered desert – papanasi (something like this – 2 doughnuts covered in sour cream and cherry jam). They used to be great at this very restaurant. But we had a bit of a surprise, they ruined the recipe! Luckily, that was the only bad piece of news that nigh!
