My First Day as an Official College Graduate & My First Belgian Movie Theater Date!

I spent the morning doing some work and baking some pretty yummy inside out carrot cake cookies!  They were quite delish and are going to work with Dustin tomorrow because my love for carrot cake is not easy to ignore!  You can get the recipe here... I made my own icing but the cookies themselves were really good and easy.

Dustin and I then met with our land lord at Brico Plan-It (the European Home Depot) to which we found out that he wants us to use shower curtain rods to hang up curtains in our living room... um no?!  After a little convincing (he is a little bit of a push over) I think we got him to agree to let us hang actual curtain rods and real curtains... fingers crossed!

And today I am officially a college graduate!  My mom received my diploma in the mail today!  Can't wait to see it in person... so exciting!!!

My Diploma... Just Side Ways! 

Chris then came over for dinner before we drove to the movie theatre, Kinepolis Imagibraine.  Luckily for us it is in Flemish country so they show movies in English, although they have both French and Dutch subtitles.  I always find those distracting! haha  The selection of snacks were awesome.... a full candy bar, nachos, popcorn, ice cream, and beer.  I was excited not to have sneak my little bottle of wine into the theatre!  The seats are so comfortable and HUGE complete with nice big armrests... yes I am one of those people who doesn't share well when it comes to the armrest!  We saw The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo.  It was good but very intense.  

So the final conclusion is that we will have many more movie dates!  But only after we finish the whole furniture shopping date thing!
