Joan: I’ll have the gum al dente, hold the drool

I never want to have gum for dinner again. I know you’re not supposed to EAT the gum, but it just kept happening. It was like a palate mirage, I thought I was eating fries not Trident spearmint.

I had no idea that the 8:40 showing of The Ghost Writer would be almost sold out.  I love me some Ewan McGregor ( AND YOU TOO, MATTHEW) but the last blockbuster he was in was Revenge of the Sith and I’ve gotten used to being the only person at a Ewan movie. (True story: When I was 11 years old I put on lipstick and lied my way into an afternoon  showing of Trainspotting. I firmly believe showing this movie to young children would be 1000% more effective than the D.A.R.E. program)

Joan: Is there anything better than deep fried salty goodness?

 

Well, yes. But Matthew Gray Gubler’s phone number has some stiff competition with a grilled cheese sandwich on sourdough with a side of sweet potato fries.

I’m a big fan of a classic grilled cheese. Bread,cheese, grill…BAM! Instant gooey classic. Most people would say why mess with that? My answer is…because I can’t be happy until I know I’m not missing out on a magical gastronomical experience because I didn’t try it. Some might say Gorgonzola is never to meant to touch Rye. Others may weep at the thought of Manchego on Wonder Bread. You might find my mad mixing of breads and cheeses monstrous. Therefore, I hereby dub the process of discovering the perfect mixThe Frankencheese Experience. Cheese will be sliced, bread will be grilled, and no combination will be spared. Bring it, Parmesan and Pita.

Right now the leader of the pack is American cheese on Sourdough…I’ll keep you updated. Send any suggestions or pleas for cheese amnesty.

Laura: I try some glasses on, I cut my fingers on the way

I really don’t read GQ as much as I should probably because I’m not a super stylish male. But I like super stylish males (cough MGG) and I kind of (really) like Gentleman Quarterly. There are random useful tips in that thing and one of them is a full on spread of finding the best glasses. They featured great brands and what’s the current trend for us four eyes and aspiring to be four eyes. Warby Parker was amongst those and I strongly (singing from the mountain tops) agree. All frames, including prescription, are only $95 and free to ship…hold on more come your way. You can try 5 pairs on at home and find your faces right match. AMAZING! I need it in my life. The frames are all pretty sleek, modern, classic, and on trend. I really love their Zagg frames and might see them and four others at home for a short trial period. Really Warby Parker you are awesome. Joan I told you about this today and said I would give you the website. Wander to Warby!
