Week Nights in Review

Mon: Monday Nights are grocery night. Love the new grocery store Fresh and Easy and their $5.00 off coupons.

Tue: Watched "American Idol" Performance show. Freaked out that the wrong David would win.

Wed Part 1: Went to the movies. Movie Watcher Wednesday's = free popcorn. Saw "Baby Mama." Pretty good flick. Tina Fey is funny!

Wed Part 2: Got home after the movie to find replay had missed recording "American Idol." It recorded the stupid Lost rerun! Shit! So about 30 minutes before the ending is where I came in. So glad that David Cook won "American Idol!!!!" That made me happy. I was kinda scared that the other David would win because Simon kept saying he was the best on performance night.

Thurs: Went to BJ's for dinner. Meet up with Krueger, who just got back from New York. She worked on the "Survivor" finale. Not the show but the live finale show. Apparently she has been working the finale's for several season's now. Hum, learn something new about your friends all the time! She gave me a T-shirt from the show and a badge. So cool! Cuz I watched the whole season. She is currently working on the new "Circus of the Stars" TV show and then she just accepted a 3 year gig on the "Bonnie Hunt Show" which tapes in Culver City. Looks like Krugs may be moving to the West Side with gas being $4 bucks these days it won't be fun or cost effective to drive from Burbank to Culver City everyday.

Fri: The hub and I both got out of work early so since we weren't going out of town for the weekend we went to the movies and saw "Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull" (good not great) and "Made of Honor" (totally horrible). It was double movie night for us. Came home about 9:30ish and made some burritos. We eat way too much Mexican especially now that Brian has a) found out he likes Guacamole and b) he has learned how to make really good guacamole (yum).

Sat Day: Had a long adventurous drive down to Hermosa Beach to go to an arts and crafts summer festival fair. Ate a ton of bad junk food.

Sat Night: Went and had sushi dinner at Kabuki with birthday boy, Regul, his lady, Danielle and the Hinojosa's. The four of them were going to see Indy. Since we had already seen it we didn't go but while they waited in line, we hung out in the movie theatre's bar lounge with Matt and Michele and had some drinks. Krueger and Matt L. who didn't come for sushi, came to the theatre to watch the movie so we got to see them for a little bit. After everyone went into the movie we went home.

Sun: ? Not sure yet.

Behind Door Number One

Have you ever watched those TV Game shows where they have a couple of doors and behind one is a grand prize? Well, this weekend the hub and I found out what was behind our Door #1. The hubby and I are starting the beginning phases of landscaping our backyard. Our first step, was to clean out the area behind our garage. When we moved in, there was about 2 feet of walking space behind our garage the rest of the area was covered in vines. Vines were growing on the roof and generally it was a mess. Not wanting the vines to take over the roof, we I started to clear out the vines last fall. But after we cut a million vines with only a pair of clippers we gave up and decided to clean out the rest in the spring. Spring came around and we didn't do much until one day when I was sick a few weeks ago, I ran into our gardener. I showed him the mess and asked if he knew of anyone who could come clean it out. I could tell he was actually, quite happy for me to broach the subject of ...

Surfing Goat Diary

We left the store and headed to the Surfing Goat Diary, again, this was a second trip for us but what was different this time is that we scheduled an hour long tour. Last time we arrive right before closing and were rushed. We spent a fair amount of time there exploring before the tour. We tried their cheesecake, we met the cats and dogs that roamed the place, we played in the playground, we pet and fed the baby goats that were penned up, and pursued the little store. Penny was eager to get her hands on the chocolate goat milk truffles. I must admit they did look good. I had my eyes on a t-shirt and a mug. Our tour started at 3:30pm that day and we met all the goats and learned all about the farm. But the most exciting part of the tour was getting the opportunity to milk the goats. Penny was quite a good milker. A friend later reminded me that Penny was breastfed (wink, wink). By the time the tour ended we were extremely hot. Maui was hot but also humid. We were ready to...

My Favorite Gourmet Trucks

As of last night, I have now tried 18 food trucks! Only 60 more to go! My friends, Krueger and Kristy joined me at 55 Degree Wine in Atwar Village to try the always busy Grilled Cheese Truck! I have run into the truck a few times now but something has always prevented me from trying their food. Mostly the really, really long lines!! This time the hour wait wasn't so bad with two girls to gossip with. By the time we got to the front we were ready to execute our food plan. Kristy took lead and placed an order for 3 sandwiches (the brie, the mac-n-cheese and the rib meat) plus the dessert sandwich and some tator tots!!! I was a bit bummed that they didn't have the sandwich I went for, the Harvest sandwich but the 3 sandwiches we got more than made up for everything. I was glad to try this truck with 2 girls because we split the sandiches in 3rds which was awesome because I got to try a variety of their sandwiches. Now I must add the Grilled Cheese Truck to my list of fa...
