I had so much fun at that BBQ last night. I know, right? The hosts’ house was right on the river and it was gorgeous. (These are the kind of grown-up people who live in a finished house. You know, with furniture, and nice wallpaper and fixtures and things. I want to be just like […]
Every time I step into a coffee shop and see people sitting staring glazed-eyed into their sleek laptops, I think, “Why in the hell don’t I have a sleek laptop of my own with a wireless NIC card; why?!” One of these would do nicely. Oh yes. Or even one of these.
Yeah, well, me too. Don’t feel bad. Especially not now that there’s a sweet little online aggregator called Kinja that gets all your bloggy goodness together on one hot linked page. I’m so in love. Now excuse me while I go read more blogs.
Tahmi whisked me away to Des Moines yesterday. Our mission was two-fold: drop off some of her jewelry for entry in the Iowa State Fair eat lunch at a Granite City Brew Pub. Rough, huh? Hah! I love being on Tahmi’s ‘I need to run an errand and want a passenger’ list! Especially when she […]
I forgot to tell you we went to Pella last Sunday to celebrate Brett’s mom’s birthday. Krista served surf ‘n’ turf: steaks and shrimp off the grill, and broiled salmon, along with a Caesar salad and corn on the cob. Yum! Then, oh man. Then: the pièce de résistance – she served an ice cream […]
Brett and Jimbo were already at the Mexican-restaurant-I-don’t-like when Joe and I arrived unexpectedly and made them share their table with us. Joe told us about his fun-fun trip to Minneapolis, where his band opened for Dinosaur Jr. in a club that had them all out of there by ten. Yes, you heard me right. […]
I had a hair appointment yesterday at one o’clock. I went to Meredith Hirsch Salon, and told her I wanted a trim and highlights. She told me as she ran a comb through my hair, “Nooo-oo-o, you want some lowlights.” I think she was deeply amused with my hair. I’d bought those home chunky highligting […]
Aimee just put her man on a plane to Boston, and called me up ’cause she’s cool. We’re gonna meet for a cocktail at five! How cool is that?! A cocktail! With a girlfriend! It’s like I have friends or something! Last night I stopped at The Dew Drop for a cocktail on my way […]
This is a really good recipe. Please note that the feta is not merely a garnish, it makes this dish.
