s there a retailer in your area that would be a good fit for Suzzi Homewrecker Aprons? I’m looking for coffee shops, design stores, indie
boutiques, or any other store that might carry the aprons.
Our Anniversary & Father’s Day
June 23rd, 2009 • daddy, memories, mommy, tattoo • 1 comment
For our anniversary, we went out to dinner at Joe’s American Bar & Grill, took a salsa dancing lesson in financial plaza, walked around waterfire, saw a comedian, saw the first part of a terrible movie, left the movie early and hung out downtown. For Father’s Day, I took Alex to get a tattoo from Nate, and then out to eat at Trinity Brewhouse.
Joe’s American Bar & Grill is a neighborhood staple for traditional American cuisine. I had an amazing plate of BBQ Beef Ribs, and Alex had the Reuben. We typically have an awesome experience, but it seemed like a bunch of n00bs were working. I wouldn’t rave about the service, but I can’t complain about anything either.
WaterFire is a popular environmental art installation consisting of a series of up to 100 bonfires that blaze just above the surface of the three rivers that pass through the middle of downtown Providence in Waterplace Park (the Woonasquatucket, Moshassuck, and Providence rivers), with accompanying world and classical music, sometimes with
live performances.
Comedian Jon Lincoln finds a way to bring out the funny in almost anything. A relative newcomer to the highly competitive Boston comedy scene he has quickly made a long-lasting impression on the industry. I’d see him again any day. I just hope he mixes up his material a little bit and I don’t have to sit through the poop-pants bit again.
The movie, Shanked, is an independent film that satirizes reality television. Seven strangers are duped into living in a run-down apartment as part of a reality TV show. They are not permitted to leave and are harassed by the show’s producer, who is secretly among them.
Trinity Brewhouse is the place to go when you have a monster appetite and crave a good time. Alex got Buffalo Chicken Nachos, and I got a brownie sundae. What the hell was I thinking? Beer and brownies? The nachos were splendid, but the waitress should have talked me down from ordering a Klosch and sundae.
Restless
June 11th, 2009 • mommy • 1 comment
Every so often, about twice a year, around the same time each year, I get this restless feeling. When I was in high school, it lead to me dumping my boyfriend at the end of the school year. When I was in college, I’d rearrange my furniture. After college, I’d pick up all my belongings and move, or travel. Now that I’m on my own, with a husband and great furniture arrangement, I don’t know what to do with myself.
I could build a home office center in my kitchen that seamlessly merges the two areas. I could tell Alex that Willy can’t move in, and make the spare bedroom my office. I could leave things as they are and not complain, but that wouldn’t help the restlessness.
Really, I want to open another boutique. I great space that I’ve been looking at for a while opened up, and I know it would do great. I’m just scared to death of dumping all that money into a build-out when we don’t have a nice cushion to fall back on. I’m trying to talk myself out of it.
What do you do to cure your restlessness?
