 Well hello and welcome to Flulai Day 8. My favorite mother is with me. She's driving. Gotta keep both eyes on the road. We're currently in downtown. I think we're leaving downtown Minneapolis right now. We're heading to the airport. scenery. Yeah we're heading to the airport to get my mom's sister, her favorite sister, her only sister, Marlene. And then we're gonna head off to the dragon house for some deliciousness. It's the last day of operation at the dragon house which is sad. But something exciting happened today. This morning on the dragon house Facebook page Pete the owner had posted a picture and said like we didn't realize that the dragon house will actually hold on let me read it like verbatim because this is important. Okay so it's actually a comment that he wrote and he says one of the last picks of the crew working hard tonight. Here's the picture. So sad. One of the last picks of the crew working hard tonight. Everyone worked extra hard. Many die hard customers were waiting before we opened up. The crowd did not let up until we closed. Never realized that dragon house made such an impact on the lives of our customers. You never know with this with so much love and support from this awesome community of me we may do something in a smaller scale. Happy face emoji. So maybe someday they'll do something different. Still dragon house but something different because they did not sell the business. They just sold the building. So the business is still a business and they can own and operate their business however the heck they want. So yeah but that's kind of cool. I'll have to pick Pete's brain about that later. But that was exciting. So one of the things that our family has done and the dragon house has been a part of our life from well the beginning. From the beginning. Yes. Because if you and dad go there before you were married. No. Right when you got married. Yeah as soon as we got married we started going there. But we've had birthday parties there. We've had graduation celebrations there. We've had funerals there. We've had family gatherings. We've had reunions there. I mean it's the whole gamut of everything with our family from out of town out of state. It's been part of our lives from the beginning of our marriage and we've been married for 43 years something like that. It's been a long time. But it's always been there. It started off very very small and we continue to go there. My husband was good friends with Pete who was just a kid at the time. Madam one he was in middle school and our Roland was a police officer in Columbia Heights. So he got to know the family and just knew it was a good place to eat and we just kept staying with it because we loved the food and loved loved everything that they that they did and they were just a part of the community and part of our family. But at least this guy won't let me in. Nope nope because Minneapolis is full of assholes. I guess so. Nope nope they're just gonna be next. You can just keep going and then just come up there. I'll get to the airport eventually here. But yeah that's a brief history of the dragon house for you guys so yeah kind of kind of crazy kind of nuts that uh you know had lots of uh birthdays and stuff like even when my my brother and I were little so I'm born on January 9th. Phil is born on January 15th and we would have our collective birthdays together when we were quite small and we would always do them at dragon house and all the grandparents would come all the aunts and uncles and the cousins and just everybody would come and it was so much easier doing it at a restaurant than doing it I'm sure in their home. Yep so we could make a mess there but everybody loved the food so it actually worked out really great and then you know mom wasn't like slaving away over food that not everyone's gonna eat or you know whatever so it's just it's it was easy. So I've got lots and lots of photos from that um if I was completely unpacked I would show you some photos but I don't so maybe someday I will show you some photos like I'll do something on Instagram or something like that later on down the road but yeah it's been a cool place to kind of have in our family and share with others so we've gotten a lot of other people hooked on it too so sorry not sorry. All right well now we're hitting some traffic so I'm gonna put the camera away but we are heading to the airport and I'll see you in a moment. So this is my aunt Marlene. Hi. So she has decided to eat this spicy mustard and look at her plate I'm very curious if you're just your nostrils just start on fire so we're gonna see do you want to eat it and then report back. I don't even take a bite. I'm so curious because she put a ton of it on her plate I'm like what are you doing? Oh my gosh. It's spicy. Right? I told you. I know. But is it good spicy or is it? It's good spicy. Okay. I can feel it. Well yeah yeah just a just a touch. Do you need a new plate? No no no. I mean this stuff is no joke you guys like this spicy mustard here is no freaking joke. This makes you feel alive. I hope so. Yikes. Well anyways we got a spring roll so here is mild pieces I'm gonna have but this is this is where it's at this is where it's at the sweet and sour this is where it's at once the food comes I will show you guys the food. All right so the food just came I got something really different I ended up getting the beef and broccoli of course my rice is separated my aunt ended up getting what was this the combination low main combination low main which means that there's like all the proteins and meats in there yes and shrimp yes see the shrimp and her rice is separated too and mom what did you get shrimp fried rice what not usually what I get but I do love it here yes it's delicious I think I'm going to get shrimp fried rice later so Emily is still eating over here she's eating her broccoli go ahead keep eating your trees yeah I call them trees but this is really big and it's difficult to eat you need a knife but I'm trying she doesn't have a knife so she's got she's got to eat it this way so we're putting it out on the on the internet on the blue light so that everybody can see how awkward this is for her but I also have like really bad job problems so it's like not helpful with this but she's saving the little broccoli people by eating all her broccoli she's doing a good job exactly so I just got home and my youtube video from yesterday that I started uploading at like 10 o'clock this morning still hasn't loaded and it's four o'clock so yeah um while I was getting ready this morning there was like a little flicker with the lights and stuff so I think what happened is my internet didn't like reset itself so this is now the third time I'm gonna try to load this freaking video for you guys when there's technical issues it just kind of drives me crazy where it's like come on just load I want I want to load so we're gonna try this again my goodness gracious all right so I'm gonna do this I have it loading finally again I had to completely power down and then I powered down my internet as well and restarted everything again so hopefully this will be good I copied my description so I'm just gonna load my description take the puppy on a walk and then I'll come back right now it's saying one hour and 19 minutes so hopefully it'll be less than that when I get back fingers crossed all right just completed the walk and I came back and it's at 22% it says 57 minutes so it is going down which is good technical difficulties are so frustrating but I got a package I actually got two packages but one of them I'm opening later because I know what it is this I have no idea what it is so give me a second let's open it together look what I got I got an apron look haha I'm so fancy tada it has like a little bit of silver in there with like an oatmeal in gray color which that was really pretty I actually got this at bed bath and beyond but the um like return address label was not bed bath and beyond so let me show you what it looks like and then it's got like a couple of pockets here which I kind of liked so um I ordered a couple of other things from bed bath and beyond but that did not come in the shipment so I'm keeping this though this is cool I like it I like it a lot all right I did get another package but save it for later do you guys even know what's in here do you some of you might okay so finally the freaking video is up I feel like a day of technical difficulties
