Behold!  A painting!
This here is a shot of the birthday gift I got for Dave.  It is a commissioned piece by Jenny A. Anderson from one of my top ten blogs My Favorite And My Best.  She has been painting for about a year now and her work is out of control amazing!  Not only is she talented but she was a pleasure to work with and I highly recommend her work if you were interested in any kind of personalized piece.  Also…her blog is hilarious and she says things like “bag of dicks”.
It’s Win Win!

// Hi hello how are you//

When people walk into the restaurant and I greet them with a “hello! Welcome! How are you?” And they reply with “two for the patio” I want to yell “WRONG ANSWER” right in their faces.

Blythe and Greg threw a joint thirtieth birthday party on Saturday night with a cruise around Lake Michigan and the Chicago river. I got dressed in my best nautical frock (who am I kidding, I have way too many boat clothes from which to choose, this dress was just on top!) and met my parents at trump towers for a quick cocktail with our LF neighbors Julie and brad. Then it was off to Burnham Harbor! We cruised around with friends until about midnight then a small group headed over to aviary and the office for some tequila (what was I thinking) and vegan bites! Bonus was getting to spend a little time with Dave on party night since he couldn’t make it to the festivities. I did buy him a surprise pair of top siders though, so he will be ready for next time. My sister and her husband sure know how to through a party! Even though its not quite your actual bday… Happy birthday (party) to you, dear sister! Oh… And to my rotten brother Greg. Love you two!

Today and every day… I love you, pops

Perfect night for a lake cruise with sisters!

Dear everyone at Randolph street fest,

Please remember (in between reminding yourself how “edgy” and “cool” you are) that people actually LIVE in this area and don’t want to hear your drunken shenanigans. In fact… It’s actually why we picked to live here and not in your bros-ville neck of the woods. Also, ladies… Why the high heels?!?!

Our last night in Nashville we ate as a ten top in the newly opened Husk. All in all, this was a wonderfully executed, delicious, and soulful meal. We sat with old friends and new (hi suzie and Gerard!) and ate until we couldn’t eat anymore! I highly recommend Sean Brock’s food whether you eat it in Nashville or Charleston or this weekend in aspen for Food & Wine; just eat it!

I’m still dreaming about those ribs…
