So, ok, look ... I cannot begin another Friday post with the "where's my week gone mantra", but omg WMWG??? I'll start by saying a post about my fave cupcake spot is on the way. On Thursday, I had a breakfast meeting with someone from work, so I was in the city early, which almost never happens. It's usually an afternoon trip. Thursday was one of those days we feel we deserve in NYC after having wack winters. lol. I spent 6 months in Cali and must admit, got a bit sick of the same sunshine everyday ... it was real cool when it hailed and even nicer to drive to the top of Mount Baldy and see some snow where the foot of the mountain is like 90 degrees. Ok, so Thursday was lovely in NYC. Everybody was out and about so after bfast, I thought, I don't wanna go home yet! I was so close to my old job that it reminded me of one of my favorite restaurants in the area that I used to go to all the time. I thought it'd be a great lunch, but I totally needed to walk a bit, then it hit me ... I missed a friend's birthday and they were just blocks away at my old job! So, I texted her and minutes later we were eating at Petit Abielle on Hudson. I had the Bangers and Mash, she had a sandwich. I will surely talk about Petit Abielle at some point at length, but I'll start by saying not only is the food amazing, the owner, the staff, everyone there are great humans. Smiley faces every time you go there. We had fun talkin about the good ol' days and what we were currently up to and on the walk back to her job is my fave cupcake joint I posted about just this week!!! Out of the Kitchen! ***ok, remember I said I'd post at length about how good the cupcakes are??? well, things have changed, they moved locations for one!! just down the same street though and added menu items, I was so overwhelmed. That ode to the cupcake there is on the way, but right now I am tiiiiiiiiiired!!!
My dude and I just got back from seeing Paul Mooney at Caroline's on Broadway. It is 4:19AM! He started his set at 1AM and didn't end until 3:47 and it was allllll hilarious. I wish I could pull a specific joke, but there were so many, plenty of his humor is observational as well. Totally wouldn't translate if I typed it. It was the perfect ending to a long week, plenty of laughs and 2 cervezas.
If you are up in the morning (Sat) and have Sirius Radio, I'll be on Eminem's Shade 45 channel at 1030AM with DJ Whoo Kid and Coach PR, tune in and join in the fun. I know the guys from my radio days and for them to ask me to the show to promote Cooking for Real is the ultimate in support and friendship. Hope ya catch it, until then ... nighty night.

Hi Sunny! We went to the same junior high in Heidelberg (back when you had a pet doberman named Ginger). :-) So nice to see you again and looking forward to your "Germany Is Wonder-Veal" show in May!
omg Lorrie!!! I just knew this gig would reunite me with my broken military family. how hard is it to have friends and have to leave em every year or so? pls hit me on myspace so we can exchange info. Thanks so much for the support. i miss ginger and had another dog i named sage, all dogs after ginger will be named with a food item in her honor. what a great dog. :-( ... hope you like the Germany show!!!! I did Jagerschnitzel without the time consuming spaetzle! yummy in my tummy! and hopefully yours too!
Mooney ain't funny!
well, to each their own! I think he's hilarious. so did richard pryor, robin williams, red foxx, tim reid, john witherspoon, dave chappelle and many others he wrote jokes for. it was a great show. so who do you think is funny?
Well I guess i'm not even a comedy person anyway.
But if I had to pick one I guess D.L. Hugley or Martin Lawrence.
no chris rock? no eddie in his heyday? how bout chappelle? i love a good laugh ... love me some lisa lampanelli too.
