I still can't get over how much fun I had dancing last night (e:jim,41532)
I thought my body would be broken today but honestly it felt good, much better than if I had gone on a programming marathon sitting on the couch.
We spent Sunday "preparing" for the wedding reception at 6PM. We started the morning out with a lobster omlette.
Nothing goes better with lobster claw than cleavage. period. I really don't think any man can argue that. I think lemon, butter cleavage might be the only thing to top that. (e:lilho) your sister has raised the bar, how are you going to up this one?!
It was so yummy looking, I was dying watching it cook.
Of course it needed a dollop of caviar. It was almost like the New York City on a million dollars a day meal, minus the Russian Belluga.
After that we spent the day running around in the sprinkler. This rocket sprinkler really rocks. It is fun the play in and entertaining to watch.
I no longer have a happy trail. It is more like a happy 4 lane highway. I guess, what do I expect I am Sicilian after all.

A saturday filled with caviar and champCategory: food
I picked (e:hodown) up from the airport and we headed on over to downtown Kenmore where she was going to get some jewelry repaired at Hoefferts jewelers.
Then we headed to premiere to buy some caviar and cheeses. The most expensive caviar they had was from an American Paddlefish (WIKIPEDIA - American_paddlefish) . It was $56.00/jar but when we brought it home it was covered in mold inside ;(
So we had to drive back, the woman we returned it to commented that the jar was warm. I was wondering if she was insinuating that we made it mold in the 15 minutes we had it in the car? Luckily, they switched it out for another bottle and their was no spitting required.
I learned a lot about caviar here I am curious why the Iranian Caviar is so freakin expensive
Caviar is good with creme cheese. (e:hodown) taught me to eat it like this.
(e:terry) likes to play on the scaffolds, will we ever return them.
Then we had champagne, which reminded me a lot of the housewarming months.
Even (e:cindy) drank a bit too much.
It was fun lounging around.
Then we hung out on the porch with the ants and the water rocket.
Ants love yogurt
(e:matthew) cleaned it up
For a little we had 2/3 of the ho clan on the porch. You guys probably don't see the he-ho Josh that much.

Speaking of Iran I really need to go there before the US military destroys it.

I have never had caviar but really want to try it. I watched and episode of Globetrekker once where Ian went to an Iranian Caviar processing plant that was smack dab in the middle of the Caspian. It was really cool. It's amazing how much money they charge for an oz of the Beluga. I suspect it has something to do with that species of Sturgeon being on the endangered list not all that long ago.

Bringing The Tortoise To Hell With MeCategory: pets
We did not attend the animal blessing this morning with Basra. I don't think (e:matthew) realized it was a church service and animal blessing. I mean I have no idea how the Episcopalians do it but in the Catholic church I kind of remember a whole mass with candles they put up on the animals necks at some point.

More Shutdowns in the Elmwood VillageCategory: elmwood
Just shortly after Sahara Grill closed down ;( , Elmwood Bagels closed down too. I went there this afternoon for a sandwich and there was a sign saying thanks for being loyal customers they enjoyed there time in the elmwood village but had to close. I wonder if they are moving somewhere else. You think they would have a forwarding address if that was the case.
fellyconnelly - 10/07/07 12:07
it is upsetting when all these places that i want to go to some day close before i end up going there.
grr!

Although i don't really like to see businesses close in a city that needs every business it can get, i am neither surprised or unhappy to find out that Sahara Grill closed. The service was so bad and the owner such a prick. The food was ok, but we never went there because we didn't have an hour and a half to wait for our water while the owner/cook was yelling at the female wait staff about how stupid women are.
I never went into Elmwood Bagel, though. Shame about them... i never saw anyone in there, though.

Sofra still has a discount listed on flash-a-passes so it lives on in spirite. ETS should stay where it is and the new place should go to Burger king. ETS was on that corner and didn't it burn down or something or move there after it burned down I can't remember but I think that is a great place for it. Where Sofra was there has only ben one successful place and that was the Elmwood Soda Bar, they had these cool wooden high booths and it was a great place where you could sit down and order and not be rushed, As nice as sweet tooth was not even the same kind of place.

Medina Deli On North StreetCategory: buffalo
I have talked about Media Deli (e:paul,40698) a bunch of times in the past. Yesterday, there were actually a coupel people eating there in the morning and then today when i was walking past it on my way to work, I saw it was closed. Once I got to Main Street I saw why.
A freakin' car drove up the curb and slammed into it. I wonder if it was an accident or someone trying to cause damage or rob it.
Everything inside looked untouched, so it makes me think accident.
What is up with all the stores in the Allen Village being closed. I am hoping by calling it a village, everything will get fabulous.
This one is starting to smell moldy. I have a super power for detecting mold.
All the stuff in the windows is melting. It is such a weird mix of candles and food and knives.
The sky was so pretty yesterday after work.
I thought you guys would get a kick out of this.

I knew you meant the lobster/cleavage combo, lol.
eww, semi-pubes. yay sprinkler, and f-that. lilho is the new grand puba.
Amazingly enough I wasn't referring to the 4 lane highway.
Hmmm... (e:jbeatty), I didn't know you dig all that Keratin. Want to share the secret recipé?
WOW! I'm not certain which looks more appetizing.
