sunday dinner
sunday night sean made fresh chicken burgers with swiss and an asparagus, goat cheese, lemon pasta that he saw on smitten kitchen. delish! find the pasta recipe here.
13 gypsies
sean and i finally made it to 13 gypsies last thursday for dinner! when we arrived all 14 seats were filled and it was a bit loud, but after one party left it calmed down and we were able to have a nice relaxing dinner. we had a bottle of naia ($24 = 200% markup), thier honey garlic hummus (easy at-home idea), queso manchengo, a cheese plate of jarlsberg with quince paste, and the curry mango chicken. all yummy, good service and fun music. we'll definitely go back.
memorial day weekend
friday night our friend gloria came into town. i took her to moon river for dinner, we hit up steamworks for some cheap drinks then tsi for some dancing, but alas it was electronic band night. saturday we went to ram (native sun 5pts burger!), then gloria & katie went for drinks at starlite while karen and i got our hairs did by carol at lockstar. after that we all met at estreet in riverside for some more beers then headed over to edge 17 in murray hill for the zombie luau - interesting is all i can say, but luckily clay, fallon, chad & becky were all there too so the good conversation made it worthwhile. i picked up some sushi to go, went home to rest before more fun ensued but we all ended up crashing at our respective homes that night. sunday sean and i got up slowly, watched cbs sunday morning, had tijuana flats for lunch and picked up some things at target. when we got home my dad was in our driveway ready to work on the jeep & take it home with him to high springs. he stayed through dinner & found a stray kitten in our neighbor's yard with it's eyes crusted over, so sad (and gross, haha). he fed it milk & gave it to a couple he met at the gas station who seemed to know alot more about taking care of kittens than he did. monday i had to work but sean made up for it by taking me to dinner at the brick for 2 martinis & apps, then to see the movie gigantic (zooey deschanel, paul dano, john goodman & zach galifainakis) at the 5pts theatre, and we finished last night with a few shorts from the new wolphin dvd. all in all it was a good weekend, but i dont' think i got one thing on my list of "things to do this weekend" done. ah well, there's always next weekend, no wait we'll be in st. pete, then it's sean's bday weekend, and then its . . . . ah well, that's life.

bbqs + chalk
saturday night's impromptu bbq led to some interesting additions to our menu board in the kitchen. see if you can find the following: a "thug life" tattoo, a phantom penis (shout out to karen!), curly tears, and a cap 'n crunch hat. also note today's special: chicken burgers, dissapointment and friends.
we also gained some great new quotables that night, courtesy of mr. chris lahey - "she looka like she preeeegnant" referring to one of the playboy playing cards (don't ask) and "what's that computer doing? just chillin?" referring to my laptop. muahaha.

kings of leon + the walkmen
sean and i went to see kings of leon + the walkmen at the st. augustine ampitheatre last night & it. was. awesome. the crowd wasn't too packed so we were able to scoot down a few rows and sit with karen, tiffany, sean & amy in ROW D! the walkmen set started out a little shaky since their frontman was caught in traffic "behind a 400 lb walrus", but he made it just in time to pull off a good two song finale. then the sun went down and the lights came up for kings of leon. they played a straight set of great songs and seemed geniunely thankful for where they are today saying "i used to paint houses and now look at this" referring to the sea of fans. all in all it was a great show & after two concerts in four days at the st. aug ampitheatre its my new favorite venue. hope they keep up with adding newer acts to the lineup. check out the killer kol posters sean tucker did for the ampitheatre staff & a video clip of use somebody from last night.
mom's day in st. augustine
my mom and i celebrated mother's day early last weekend complete with james taylor at the st. augustine ampitheatre on friday night (awesome!), shopping & the beach on saturday, and more shopping on sunday before we headed home. our last stop of the weekend was leonardi's plant nursery off A1A where i dropped an easy $50 on new succulents and pots for the house. see more pics of the great greenery here.
