Hip Hop O'Malley's

After dinner, most of Kristy's friends left and Ellen left and so that left Krueger, Jayne Jay, Charlie, Kristy, her friend and hubby and I to roam the streets of Seal Beach. Let me tell you the streets were pretty bare. Well, the reason the streets were bare was because it was cold and all the people were in the bars warming up! We decided to take up residence inside of O'Malley's an Irish bar that likes hip hop music. Jayz and 50 Cent sounded a bit weird playing in an Irish Pub but hey this is America and anything can happen right? Right. So we entered and the waitress sat us at a big table that overlooked the bar area.

The first thing we learned that night is that Krueger does not like her food warm. What, you say? Since she hadn't eaten at Ruby's she ordered a meal and progressed to let it sit for 40 minutes before eating it. Of course everyone had to know why she was doing this and her response to the millions of questions was "She hates warm food and it's hard to chew." Okay, whatever? I wasn't thrown by this as it's just another one of the "Kruegerisms" I know so well. She does things her way. Why people are surprised anymore is beyond me!

The second thing I learned that night is that you can mix Guinness with peach ale and you get the weirdest but cool, looking Arnold Palmer looking type drink that was surprisingly tasty. Thanks Charlie and Jayne Jay for introducing me to this new beer concoction.

Third thing I learned, well really, I didn't learn it but the table did, was that Krueger knows way too much about lemon drop shots and now so does Kristy. The fourth thing we learned is that some people, after getting married, like to take their entire wedding party to O'Malleys. Not exactly my idea of a an ideal wedding reception but alas we were surrounded by bridesmaids and groomsmen in a union, that from all looks of things, would last 2 maybe 3 years at the most. Finally, the last thing we learned that night is that Seal Beach is a pretty cool, Hip Hop Irish Town. We all agreed we'd go back to do some more birthday, lemon drop celebrating some day.

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...

Vaccine Part 1

As a little girl I would look on my mom’s arm and wonder why she had such a weird mark near her shoulder. A few days ago, as the warm solution penetrated my bloodstream, I started to cry remembering my mom’s mark. The nurse asked me if I was okay and I told her I was so incredibly happy. As a diabetic I was stressed never knowing if I was doing enough to avoid it but also, keeping some semblance of life in doing outdoor things. I cried because I am incredibly grateful to the SCIENCE that made this possible in only a year. Less time for me to worry about my only kiddo should the worse happen.  If ur on the fence...I’ve worked in entertainment for over 20 years and I’ve seen first hand how easy celebrities influence the public.  Some do good and others well...I’m happy to have a little bit of the gracious Dolly Parton with me.  Scientists on the other hand, very rarely get the recognition for their years of study, years of research and expertise contributing to (wo)mankind....
