Friday 26th April was my
not-so-little sister’s 18th birthday. I can’t believe that she is officially
an adult now! Even though she has been coming out and partying with me for some
time it still seems so surreal that she is now actually legally old enough.
On Friday evening we went to Buddies USA
which is a cool American diner in Northampton with some family and friends to
celebrate with a delicious meal. I love this place and we often go there for
family occasions and to indulge in the huge American sized portions and
extensive menu. I love that they do vegetarian burgers as I don’t eat meat and I
love a good burger and chips so it is a real treat for me. Their dessert menu
is to die for, I can never decide what to order – I have such a sweet tooth so
dessert is always my favourite part of a meal, most of the time I could quite
happily skip the main course!
I ordered my usual which is a veggie
burger with cheese, mayo, mushrooms, lettuce and tomato with chips and salad. I
was stuffed but forced myself to finish the divine Oreo cookie cake with ice
cream which is my all-time favourite dessert – so delicious! After all of that
I felt ready to pop. Luckily I wore leather trousers that zip up at the side so
secretly under my jumper the zip was only half done up to allow room for my
expanding stomach!
The waitress surprised my sister with a
lovely chocolate cake and candles and we all sang happy birthday.
After the meal my mum, sister and friend
Karen went for a cocktail at a lush cocktail bar called Sazeracs and we toasted
the occasion with a selection of fruity drinks. I hate drinking alcohol after I
have eaten a large meal - all I feel like doing is going home and getting in to
bed so I chose a virgin cocktail which was a mixture of coconut, guava, pineapple
and strawberry juice, it was quite easily the nicest cocktail I have ever had!
My sister had a great day and is heading
out on Saturday night with her friends for her first legal night out on the
town, I’m predicting that she is going
to feel far from fresh on Sunday morning hehe!
