Happy Birthday Tweaker!

This is a birthday shout-out to one my besties, Shannon. Happy 31st Beautiful lady! I have known Shannon for 22 years now! So here are a few of my favorite Beaner and Tweaker moments:
Spillin' the wax and driving on the wrong side of the road
Crashin' into the snowbank
The stalking route...
The "Jasper" day. JASPER NO! "I retrieved these for you."
Babysitting, Dave Doe and the Marjoram spices
Osakis Road Trip!
The Works Bombs at Cindy's Cabin
Dracula!!! AH HA HA HA!




Celebratin' over Oysters

Last night, I met with Kelly to celebrate her final days as a teacher. She writes about the experience here, and says it way better than i could. I am very proud of her, I know that even though teaching wasn't her thing, it is a very tough thing to walk away from a career. It is so easy to get stuck in a rut and just stay in a career you hate, but are too afraid to move on. A big round of applause for Kelly's perseverance and her chutzpah to step out and take a chance! Bravo!
So to celebrate we met at Stella's Fish Cafe in Uptown. We enjoyed 2 for 1, delish apps and Oysters. Kelly is one of the few people i know who enjoys seafood as much as i do, and not just the basics like shrimp. But good things like, Mussels and Oysters. The oysters there were fresh and salty sweet... mmmm.
