G’Mornin’ Folks! It’s the weekend!!!! :-D WOOT WOOT!
Can I just tell you how psyched I was about my Friday evening?
You may or may not be aware of the fact that I am obsessed with scary movies. Give me suspense, blood, gore, horror, terror…I love ‘em all. So it should be no surprise that I have been anxiously awaiting the release of Paranormal Activity 2!
Jay, on the other hand, could take or leave (preferably leave) scary movies, so it’s usually a bit of a process to get him to agree to watch one. Luckily for me, asking friends to join us in our trip to the movie was one easy way to coerce him. ;) So we met up with Brian & Mal to tackle the spooks, and I must say, I definitely enjoyed the movie! I haven’t decided if it’s as good as the first one, but it was still really good. I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t sitting with my hands half covering my face for a good portion of the movie. :shock:
After the movie, Jay and I were in need of some dinner, so we stopped and grabbed a quick piece of pizza – white broccoli & tomato for me. Yumm! :-P
Dinner had to be quick since we needed to be somewhere to celebrate a very special occasion…
It was our friend Kate’s Birthday! :-D
Jay and I met up with Kate, Joe, and a few others at a local bar that I had actually never tried, Wollf’s Biergarten in Albany.
This is the front of the building…it’s actually an old fire house! Cool, right? :)
So if you go to the Biergarten on your birthday, they have what they call “Das Boot” – a gigantic boot of beer, which you have the pleasure of sipping on for the evening. Even though Jay and I didn’t stay for the entire evening, Kate was definitely holding her own with this monster. Way to go, Kate! ;)
I, on the other hand, wasn’t really in the mood for beer, so I sipped on a nice glass of Riesling while chatting away…
…and munching on some peanuts. (No, those were not all mine! I don’t like them that much!) :-P
So I couldn’t stay out too late last night, since I have big things happening today. I’m tellin’ you…I am absolutely giddy with excitement right now!
Yes my friends, I am about to embark on my first trip EVER to both Trader Joe’s AND Whole Foods!! Now how’s THAT for a Saturday day trip?!?
I’ve got my coolers packed, my wallet ready, and my game face on. :shock:
Even better, I’m heading to these fabulous places with some fabulous people! I’m about to meet up with Katie & Heather, and THEN we’re meeting up with even MORE awesome blends. I can’t wait! :-D
Question for the Morning:
HELP!! What recommendations do you have for a first timer at Trader Joe’s & Whole Foods?!? I need some suggestions! :)
