Good morning! Here’s some wee cute latte art, magically delicious. Especially alongside a cheddar bacon scallion scone. Bakery Bar, I sure am going to miss you. Sooner than later, I hope.

total eclipse of the sloe gin fizz

August 28th, 2007 · No Comments

Last night was a delightful lunar eclipse, this picture came from the internet as I was not able to view it myself due to being asleep. I shoulda stayed up to view it with the cute squirrels, oh well. For my belated birthday I would like approximately one of them.

Tried a sloe gin fizz for the first time last night, that was great. Was compared to: (me) sweet tarts, (aaron) bottlecaps, (caleb) some other kind of candy that i can’t actually recall now. Yummy.

happy birthday Gabe!

August 24th, 2007 · No Comments

Yesterday was also our dear friend Gabe’s birthday! To celebrate, we had dinner at Miss Delta and a few too many whiskeys at the Crow Bar. After a measly 6 1/2 hours of alcohol converting to sugar I was ready for work today, sort of. Nuff said.

Gabe is getting his tattoo on Friday to comemmorate the fact that he’s a bit closer to 30. Ahh, the follies of youth.

Update: No tattoo, can I just say chicken?

moustache power?

August 21st, 2007 · No Comments

Can it be? I think I’m weak for a well-formed moustache! Not too bushy, but well-defined and sort of interesting? This is some new scary sort of thing for me, geez. Just a bit late for spring fever dontcha think?

In other news: making a terrific jacket at home (sewing) and hoping for completion by the weekend.

Also, Gogol Bordello at the Crystal on the 31st, a week from Friday. Who’s with me? Audrey, I know you are.

I must send out yet another nod to the snappy dressers who feed and caffeinate me daily. You know who you are.

counter boys, counter boys (to the tune of spider man)

August 20th, 2007 · No Comments

Oh counter boys, why are you all so cute? Luckily none of you will read this, but thanks for the delicious treats and coffee every morning and thanks for being so damn sweet and cute. Real.

Makes me want to sing, yes, even before coffee.

Last night we decided that Lara’s new tattoo shop will be called the Butt Crack. It will be located

  1. Below a liquor bar
  2. Above a hotel

I can’t actually recall why these things were so important, so I’m going to have to say if you weren’t there you wouldn’t understand. In fact, I was there and don’t understand.
