lots of unnecessary hyphens.

so the other night we were at old zinnie's and there were many people there to make fun of. i know i'm not a 'fashonista' or anything, but holy cow! we took a picture, but it didn't come out for whatever 'i-took-this-picture-in-the-dark' reason. i also found the dress online, but you can't tell how horrible it is.

bad photo in the dark



what you can't tell by this photo, is the front striped part on the top is really a bib. it's repeated in the back as a cape. um, wtf? so from the side you get this 'i'm-a-messy-eating-super-hero' look, or 'i'm-blind,-and-as-a-joke-gone-horribly-wrong,-i-got-my-blind-friend-to-dress-me'.

some graffiti downtown, and a lovely Aug. 1st.

roomie and i had been out and about enjoying a few beers and an afternoon rain and found this lovely graffiti.

"Invest In Good Times"



on aug 1, during dinner in midtown at the Bayou, the sky got all neat looking and the whole city turned yellow, like it was jaundiced or something. it was totally awesome.

an awful photo of an amazing sandwich!
The Havana at Blue Monkey, Midtown, oh and their fries are really good too.



Camy's
Afternoon Delight:
basil pesto sauce, mozzarella, ham, pineapple, sun dried tomato, feta
but
this one is sans feta, add spinach



The Bayou
some catfish, probably cajun?
the 'point' of this photo was that this is how the catfish crumbles...
i had their salmon, not worthy of a photo. boo.
we tried to go friday night, huge mistake, no room at all.
looks like they are doing well at their new location. congrats!



Newest love, Do, in cooper-young.
thank you fellow Twitter-er 'taterhead' for the suggestion.
didn't go inside, it was to lovely on the patio.
we had the special (that is the big one with the salmon and sauce)
the house, and soft shell crab.
next time, more spicy rolls :D



so i have mentioned before about young ave deli's pizza, mmmmm:


it has occurred to me i take pictures of food and beer with my phone, with a sprinkling of cats and roomie.

i promise i'm not really a 14 year old. *snorts*

if you can't see it in this photo, the sign above these special cuts of meat at Schnuck's in midtown reads:
Certified Anus Beef

ok, ok, ok. i know there is a piece of paper covering up the 'g' but come on, this is funny.
