25, 25, 25, 25...

25 more days!

Me, friends, food, and fun.

I have a special project for this trip. In the past I was conscious of looking like a tourist so I relied too much on my crappy camera phone to take pictures of New York. This time, I'm taking my fancy camera and I'm spending the first few days before Meredith arrives running all over the city and creating a photo journal that will eventually be a fantastic digital scrapbook of My New York. My favorite places, favorite people, etc. I've begun making my list and even ordered a new 2010 NFT New York guide--can't find my old one and so I figured I could use a new one anyway.

Yay--can't wait!

P.S. KC--when are we going to Sosa Borella?

C-Town

I used to shop at C-Town a local "grocery store" think big 7-11 but with labels and products no one has ever heard of. It's been two years since I shopped there but I'm beginning to think that I work there. Not so much the big 7-11 but I think Jerry Seinfeld called it Bizarr-o World where everything feels crazy and backwards.

That's how I've felt in the last few days:

C-Town
Bizarr-o World
Cray-Cray Land

Whatever works best.

Shalom, Passover!

Has anyone EVER seen anything cuter than my Moses? I made him--yes it was me--not my 8 year old nephew but I think he's fantastic! I especially love his crazy sticking up hair and my special commandments...

Peace, health and good times on Passover.

The Chocolate

I cheated tonight and not just on Lent. I cheated and I feel dirty and gross. So dirty that I had to come home and immediately brush my teeth to make the taste go away. I cheated on my favorite place in all of Utah. The only teeny tiny bit of Heaven in this place--The Chocolate. I'm not sure if I've blogged about it yet but I love The Chocolate. It is the cutest, coziest, most adorable bakery/dessert cafe in all the world. The owner has my same name and she's totally cool and nice and normal and has the best treats this side of the Hudson. In some ways Ange's cakes are even better than some of my favorites in New York. I love The Chocolate and I go there so much that they even know my name. Anyone who truly knows me knows that in a normal circumstance I'd be completely mortified but I'm 100% okay with the fact that they know me. RHC and I wanted to try this "other cupcake place" and so we went. We ate and now I'm done. It was fine. The cake was actually moist which was surprising to me because it looked as if it would be dry but the frosting was ick and the place itself was too commercial and chainey looking. The Chocolate has fantastic furniture--stuff I'd have in my house--with real plates and glasses and fresh flowers on all the tables. Sugar, spice and EVERYTHING nice--that's The Chocolate.

non-Cougar non-Whorey Kind of a Way

So many funny things happen at my work--most of which I can't talk about but the other day someone I'll call Wayne did a favor for me and then I had this conversation with Baz.

Ang: Thanks for helping work that out. P.S. in case I haven't said it lately I heart Wayne.
Ang: In a purely professional non-whorey kind of a way.
Baz: I love the "purely professional non-whorey kind of a way".
Ang: I should have said, "in a purely professional, non-Cougar, non-whorey kind of a way"
Baz: You do NOT qualify as a Cougar.
Ang: Yeah, cause I'm not hot.
Baz: No, because you are NOT old enough to be his mother. P.S. I heart Wayne too in a purely professional non-whorey kind of a way.
Ang: heehee

OHP Sighting

Yesterday at the Home Show I ran into OHP. Pretty sure he didn't recognize me but I still do the full body shiver every time I think about turning around and having his creepy face starring at me. Ugh! I do not miss seeing that mug every day.

The best part was that after it happened I told my friend that I ran into OHP and even though she doesn't know him she is still scarred by that movie and so she totally understood. Fantastic!
