Ethiopian, who knew?

Last night I went out for Ethiopian dinner with Lisa and William. The last time I had Ethiopian food was when I was 8 and came to DC with my family to visit Lisa and she took us to an Ethiopian restaurant. I remember hating it profoundly and being very crabby. Lisa says that shortly afterwards, I told her in all seriousness that, "it was the worst experience of my life." It has been kind of a joke in our family ever since.

Well, I've grown up a lot in the past 15 years and so when William proposed that we go out for Ethiopian food last night, I was all for it. It ended up being delicious and it might be one of my new favorite kinds of food. I have also looked up how to say "Ethiopian" in Spanish, just in case I find myself needing to ask any Spanish-speaking girls out on a date to Ethiopian food. You never know, can't be too prepared... Incidentally, it is etíope.
