Dumplings and a Red Dress

Yesterday Todd and I went to Dumpling Inn for the first time in a long while. Dumpling Inn is my favorite Chinese restaurant in San Diego, especially for dumplings (duh). I always get the shrimp and chive dumplings.



Todd always gets the pork potstickers.


And we usually get a vegetable too. These sauteed Chinese greens were divine.


A happy dumpling eater, with his concoction of a dipping sauce made with vinegar, soy sauce, and chili in oil.


It's a good thing he ate up, because later in the afternoon was the 24th Annual San Diego Hash House Harriers Red Dress Run, where both men and women wear red dresses and run a few miles through the streets of San Diego, followed by a party afterwards. I didn't go because the whole thing took about 7 hours between leaving the house and coming home, and I just didn't want to go for that long since I wasn't a participant. But Todd brought his camera so here are some photos from the run. He loves running in wacky races, as you may remember from his Krispie Kreme Challenge back in November, where he ran 2 miles, ate 12 donuts, and then ran another 2 miles.

Anyhoo... photos from the Red Dress Run. You can read more about the run on Todd's blog here. :p

Todd with his friend Ryan from work. The one on the right is Todd, by the way. Our friend Anne ran this race a few years ago and told Todd about it. Ever since then, Todd has wanted to run it. So this year for Todd's birthday, Anne gave him a red dress in size 8! It was a little tight. :p The purse is actually mine, it has Julius the Monkey on the other side. He asked me for a purse to carry his cell phone, wallet, keys, and camera, so that's the purse I let him borrow, LOL.



Todd's friends Ryan and Monica.


Todd said it was a lot of fun!  Maybe I'll join in next year too!
