Well, I managed to survive the cold, and even made it out of the house once or twice this weekend.

On Friday, Abby and I had one of the best sushi dinners I’ve ever had at Fugakyu in Brookline. It sounds like the service can be hit-or-miss there, but we had nothing short of perfection. We were promptly seated, our food came out in a reasonable amount of time, and it was divine. For a real treat, try the Tiger Eye appetizer – cuttle fish stuffed with smoked salmon and avocado – yum!

Filene’s is having a reasonably big sale right now, so I ended up buying two long-sleeve shirts and three sweaters yesterday for $75. Post-christmas shopping is a wonderful thing.
