Cinco de Mayo weekend Brunch

I have to say I deserved last weekend.  I have had jury duty for the past two and a half weeks (and counting) and it's safe to say that the plants don't stop growing for court, so I haven't been able to abandon all responsibilities at work.  So I felt like this weekend was worth celebrating.

Samantha had planned to visit for Cinco de Mayo to see a show at Sophia's Thai Kitchen in Davis, and she brought two welcomed guests, i.e. Jessica and Courtney.  The show was really fun, mostly because the music was really good and also because Ben had the foresight to pack me an extra jacket for when I got cold.  But there's one thing about Sophia's that will always lead to a good time: ginger ale.  My education in Viticulture & Enology basically qualifies me to be a beverage expert, so do not doubt that Sophia's has the best ginger ale ever.  Plus sodas are free at bars.

Sunday morning Samantha, Courtney, Jessica, and I snacked on popsicles that I made and had various discussions about various things.  Then we met Ben at The Shady Lady for brunch where we had coffee, mimosas, bloody marys (with pickled green beans!!!!),bacon, eggs, omelets, hash browns, blueberry pancakes, and a breakfast sandwich.  After brunch I sent off my visitors with a banjo and the address for Doughbot,and then Ben and I had a relaxing Sunday afternoon complete with The Avengers and dinner in Old Sacramento.

And because you're all dying to know...
The Hulk is the best Avenger.
