Cavs and Nachos

The next three blogs are to catch you up on our life in Cleveland.

A few weeks ago, Vladi and I went to a pre-season Cavaliers game against the Spurs. To the right is a picture of Lebron James, the KING in Cleveland. Before the game, Vladi and I went to Panini's, a bar/restaurant downtown where they have sandwiches that I call, Manly Sandwiches. These sandwiches have meat, french fries, cole slaw, a dressing, and something else. They are good, but I like their pizza. So Vlad got his manly sandwich and I got a slice of pizza (holding out for something yummy at the game, I was hoping). So we get to the game and pass a nacho stand that had perfect looking, melted cheese. I wanted it so badly but didn't say anything. When we sat down, it was so funny because all I could think about were those nachos (and I haven't felt like eating for a while). Of course everyone around us sits down with nachos... EVERYBODY! So I casually said, "Oh those nachos look and smell so good." The next thing I know, Vladi says, "Ok Baby," and is walking down the steps. I yelled, "Get lots of cheese!!!" When my wonderful man returned, he had nachos and a Sierra Mist (caffeine free) for us to share. Vladi said he was short 50 cents (no credit card accepted and neither one of us carry cash usually), but the man still gave it to him. I wanted to go thank that man. Vladi barely ate any nachos as I repeated over and over, "Oh thank you Honey, these are amazing!" Then I asked why he got these, we never get them. Vladi said one of the sweetest statements that he could ever say to his pregnant wife, "Because Honey, I know that you have not been able to eat anything." Ohhhh, how sweet to think of me. :)

As we watched the game, there was an ad on the jumbo screen for people to come to the hockey game the next night and get an Obama or McCain bobble head. I thought to myself, if we go, I can get more nachos! haha We were going to go just to get the bobble head (and nachos), but Vladi checked online and it was just for kids under 17 (below the voting age!). "Are you SERIOUS?!?!?" I yelled (that's what I say since we moved here). Now why would a kid want a political bobble head? I said that it was discrimination to people without kids. And then I thought that maybe we could say that we had a baby in our tummy, but Vladi said no.

We had a great night, even though the Cavs lost...and I look forward to more nachos!!! Yummy!
