Five Good Things: Pie of Love Edition
1. Jennie sent me this picture of hot pink cake in my email this morning. My friends are the coolest.
2. WHAT UP, YUPPIE GROCERY STORE AT BROADWAY AND I STREET. American Provisions, you appeared this week like a beacon in the dark December night of nail salons and questionable pizza joints. I look forward to perusing your artisan cheese case and no longer waiting on line for my convenience-store coffee behind men who are purchasing a six pack of Bud Light and a tin of Skoal at seven o’clock in the morning.
3. Laura’s fun, brainy theater website, The Craptacular. Go for the shirtless men! Stay for the culture.
4. This weekend: shopping, baking, elving, merrymaking. Am feeling rather festive, myself. There might even be eggnog involved.

2 things (3 short of the customary 5, my apologies)
1) In regards to #5 on your list, I saw a certain bellhop from that movie perform stand up comedy the other night…the best tip he got in the movie, was chewed gum…can you name him?
2) This will also be included in a txt or phone msg at some point, but, I’ll be in Boston just after the 1st of the year, for a few days, and it’d be great to see you and Marissa one night 🙂
(obviously in hopes it’ll someday get me my 2nd blog mention)

1. How indicative is it of who I was as a child that I HATED Home Alone? The idea of doing anything without the careful supervision of grownups was just to terrifying to even think about.
2. Hot pink cake? Be still my heart.
3. I know I’m kind of way behind on this, but re: your pushcart nomination: huge, huge congratulations.

I want you to know that I MADE that cake, in case you didn’t know. And it’s hot pink because I didn’t have enough food color to make it red. Because PW called for an ounce. And I don’t keep an ounce of red food coloring around…
