IKEA HOPEN / SONIC

Decided to get a dresser for my room I've been looking at this IKEA dresser for a while and for a moment was trying to get a used one off craigslist because they are usually half the price but I ended up just going to IKEA and buying a new one. The other reason why I wanted to buy one off craigslist is because I would not have to build it and I know this was going to take some time. So I spent about three hours working on this dresser and finally I was done.

I don't even remember how I ended up going to sonics but I don't really like sonics it's kind of nasty in my opinion but anyways I do think their desserts are okay besides that I probably won't be coming back here.

So I guess I'll start posting every other week I cook. This week I made bacon wrapped hot dog. I used a Showboat hot link Smoked bacon and I sautéed onions And put it on a Hawaiian hot dog buns. Also had seasoned french fries.

If you don't know by now I have started a restoration business with is ON INSTAGRAM: http://instagram.com/SBDUNKSCARL_restorationS (FOLLOW ME AND SUPPORT)  to restore and clean sneakers. So I was working on a deep cleaning for some Nike free runs. Also having a NEW pick up of the cole haan lunerground wingtips. I have my eye on them for a while and just so happened I checked and they were on sale for a couple of days so I pick them up I love that they have the same midsole as my favorite basketball shoes currently.

STRAW SF

After passing by this restaurant almost every time I come to San Francisco I decided to try it with Mary. This area is not the easiest place to find parking but got lucky and found some parking less then 100 feet away. When I got there my first impressions were this restaurant caters to children. And 10 minutes later kids start coming in with their parents. I really like their appetizer menu and main menu on terms of design. The appetizer menu is on a ping-pong and the main menu is in kids books. I thought that was really creative I also give you goldfish for snacks aha. 

I ordered: root beer float

Glass bottle root beer with vanilla ice cream

For appetizer: Fireball 

cinnamon sriracha Buffalo wings with cinnamon cream

Entrées: Fried chicken and waffles monte christo 

Fried chicken strips/Belgian waffles/raspberry jam/Swiss cheese/Maple syrup with powdered sugar.

The ringmaster: grilled chuck Burger/homemade glazed donut/cheddar cheese with bacon and fried eggs

The food was pretty good except it could have had a little more flavor also the appetizer with the cinnamon was kind of weird. Nonetheless I wouldn't mind coming back there and eating.

sweet and sour chicken

So I have been cooking more and more recently in this has to be one of my favorite dishes I have made lately it is sweet-and-sour chicken with the vietnamese basil. First I marinated the chicken then I fried it once then breaded the chicken fried it again then sautéed the chicken was sweet-and-sour garlic and basil. This turned out really good. Can't wait to make it again.

Went to Krispy Kreme's with Darren and it up buying a couple of donuts wanted to take a cool photo so I decided to stack donuts on top of each other and hopefully They would not fall. So I started stacking them and soon everyone and Krispy Kreme Was looking at me ahah I think the photo came out pretty good. I know if I seen the photo I would want some donuts.

Basketball / EASTER / RESTORATION PROJECT / SHOES

Haven't been doing blog updates in a while since I had to renew my Flickr account. I have been preoccupied with school and other stuff but I finally got some time to renew my account and Upload some photos, I am slowly but surely going to be updating my blog every other day I hope.

Four out of the five days of the week I play basketball. I started playing a while back seriously but the past year and a half I have taken it you more serious and also want to be in shape. After my 24 membership ended I decided to just go to open gyms and hoop because that's what I would do when I go to 24 anyways for the most part.

Woke up early and took a trip to Sacramento to my aunts house for Easter. It's starting to become a smaller family gathering since a lot of us are away at school. But still good to see some of the family. Both of my aunties are born on the same day but different years so we celebrated their birthday after dinner.

 

Been getting into restoring shoes more often. So I restored Joe's Air Jordan black-and-white 12 Here are some before and after photos. They came out pretty well almost looks new. I want to start a series with chicks and kicks pretty soon. So I took a couple to have feedback on. I like the black-and-white one the most.
