An Animal Birthday

The hubby's birthday began at 12:01AM. Yes, we stayed up late and Mo and I immediately bombarded Brian with Birthday propaganda such as hats, whistles, necklaces, signage and of course presents. Hubby opened his presents which consisted mostly of games, books, and DVD's. Then we went to bed. When we woke up in the morning Mo had brought daddy another gift. He opened this gift and it was a new shirt and jacket for dinner. Hubby met me at work and we watched Grease on the big screen and not only that it was a sing along print so everyone in the theatre was singing. After the movie we went to lunch and had a lazy afternoon and then it was time for dinner.




For hubby's birthday dinner I made reservations at Animal, a restaurant he has been wanting to try for a long time. Our waiter suggested sharing a bunch of appetizers and sharing one meal so we followed his advise and ordered the following: adult beverages, pig ear, chili, lime, fried egg & barbeque pork belly sandwiches, slaw & foie gras, biscuits, maple sausage gravy & veal breast, polenta, savoy cabbage, prosciutto & joe's doughnuts, cinnamon sugar, caramel. Above is the full menu for Dec 22. The menu changes daily.

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 ...

What is Twilight?

I have loved movies and worked in movies and I consider myself knowledgable about movies but I have no idea what this whole Twilight craze is all about. Do you? I know it's something to do about vampires and that it's the new Harry Potter but what the heck is it? All of the sudden everywhere I go I hear about Twilight. They are interviewing talent on the radio and I have no idea who these stars are. It's like Hollywood grew a new list of talent over night and didn't tell me. Anyhoo, that movie opened last night to gang buster numbers but yet, I have no idea. I have no idea about the Jonas Brothers either. Am I getting old? I guess so.
