Wanna play?

I am really good at this weekend thing.

Friday at work turned me into a stress ball, so at quittin time I dashed to Eastern Standard with a friend to decompress and vent about the week with DELICIOUS cocktails - it's my new favorite spot and instead of peanutbutter and jelly I will henceforth be refering to perfect pairings as going together like gin and cucumber.

Friday night also featured falafel, Deep Ellum, more gin, and karaoke.

Needless to say, the next morning I sounded like James Earl Jones. But that's ok - since we had brunch at S&S and all was right in the world, at least everything that had to do with poached eggs over smoked salmon and potato pancakes.

We also had friends over Saturday night to play, um...well it was basically Pictionary but your partner has to guess what you sculpt out of play-doh (instead of a drawing). We ran through our cards really quickly (the age rating for the game probably had something to do with that) and the most fun was to be had from the words and phrases we came up with on our own for the other teams to guess. Yeah, you try sculpting the Appalachian Mountains...

Sunday we tidied up the apartment, and I took advantage of the heat wave by walking through Brookling and taking in the sights. More falafel...and then a reunion with an old roommate who re-taught us our FAVORITE card game, called Swiss.

I'm digging this game-night thing. Now, if I can only get Mr. Boyfriend to play Scrabble with me...

PS - Miss Andrea and her beau will visit at the end of February! They better wear their karaoke pants.
