  • Peanut Butter Pretzels
  • Saltines Ashely/Vanessa/Kristin/Maggie

Beautiful F'ing Day!

Katie sent me the new SNL Digital Short this morning and let me tell you, it's pretty spasstacular:

Hot to Mop


Well, Katie's 30th Bday soiree was this past weekend and although I can't remember the entire night, here are a few key takeaways:
  • Nuss likes to mop...a lot.
  • A ponytail at Blo Dri can set you back $55
  • Jess sucks at making a decision
  • 4 ladies can down a giant bag of Pirates Booty in under 2 minutes 
  • Why do people wait in line for the Hangee Uppe when there's a perfectly suitable bar right next store
  • I'm able to make a perfect double batch of whole grain mac 'n cheese no matter how grey'd out I am
  • If you're going to plan a party at a Lettuce Entertain You property, get a rewards card before hand.  Yes I realize it's $25, but the $80 I've already gotten back in $$$ to use at other LEY properties more than makes up for it.
  • Sangria + open bar = ouch
  • Jenny A will risk her life to teach salsa
  • Jen T and I could win any same-sex salsa contest

Local Wedding Inspires Two Men to Dress Up as Cows, Lovers

In case you haven't seen this yet (if you live in MSP you can see this on the CBS 6:00 news tonight), you should probably watch it before it hits the Today Show...

M Burger = M-azing

I finally caved and dealt with the intimidating line at M Burger today en route to a Dr.'s apt this afternoon and let me tell you: a) it's definitely worth the hype and b) the line moves much quicker than you'd think!  I engulfed my entire single M Burger, fries, and DC in the 10 minutes I had to spare before my apt in my Dr's waiting room, where about a half dozen sets of eyes shot judgemental glares at me with every dip of every fry I submerged into a side of mayo.  This heavenly establishment serves up tasty burgers (including their signature M Burger with 'special sauce' and bacon), fries, mike shakes, and a few salads, but let's face it, you're going there for a juicy, perfectly portioned burger, not a silly little salad.  I was mildly hungover off at today at work and this surprisingly inexpensive spot did the trick to off-set the twinge caused by two dirty martinis I had last night.  Highly recommended for those Saturday/Sunday morning when you're just slightly hurting. Chicagoans, get after it!


There are probably 10 menu items total, but they’re all very inexpensive and M-azing.

Heard on GG...

Yes I watch Gossip Girl, even tivo it. And every so often these pointless hours of horrific TV are so worth it.  Tonight it was when the following phrase was uttered:

"Exactly you're Blair Waldorf. You're a fashion icon. Queen Bee. And probably the future President of the United States...or Chanel."
