Have you ever been to a restaurant...
Where the Dinner was only so-so (Or even worse terrible) but somehow the dessert made up for it.

Reason I ask this is because I got invited to dinner by my Best Friend's Girlfriend's family to celebrate her graduation. He paid for everything as he always does, even when we tell him we don't want him to.

In any case we went to a restaurant that I usually enjoy without fault, but there's always that one time, and I order the cajun grilled chicken. I don't want to go into detail why I didn't enjoy it, it wasn't bad, it was just so-so though, same with the baked potatoe it came with.

However, the dad told us we could order dessert if we wanted, and I took him up on the offer and ordered a hot fudge brownie with icecream on top. The excellent warm chocolatly dessert made me instantly forgot about the so so dinner. Note: like I said usually I enjoy their dinners, this was my first time trying said menu item so I knew there was no guarantee I would be satisfied with it.

So has the dessert ever made up for a so-so dinner?

2. Sadly,
That's not my pup. A friend of mine created that for me when I told him I need a banner from my Communist Dog (My dog's nickname).

I do own an adorable Shar Pei though. I just don't have a digital camera to put him up, if I do get one his mug will be put next to this one's one day. However, my Dog's name is Bear (Nickname: The Communist Dog) and he's about 3 years old. I'm not sure. I say he's my dog, but he's really my Uncles. I call him my dog since it only took two days for the dog to start sleeping beside my bed when I go to sleep when I moved in. Midway through the night he'll always switch places and go to my Uncle's bed instead. He shares the luv. :)
