Welcome! As you can see that silly Geico commercial hasn’t gotten old yet 🙂

Since our last Hump Day Post (well, it was actually a post on Friday!), we’ve been busy…

  • We stopped in at bluezoo on Tuesday September 10th and have our thoughts on TWO new cocktails, a new flatbread that debuts officially on FRIDAY, and I must mention the Chef’s Special… Alaskan Halibut (we now know that we love halibut!)
Surprise! New cocktails at bluezoo!

  • We also went to Earl of Sandwich twice last week to eat (& review) the seasonal “Royal Couple” [Pastrami Reuben and Avocado BLT], the first review, of the Pastrami Reuben, is on the blog… the second review of the Avocado BLT will be “published” on Tuesday next week

So, what have we been reading out in the ether this week?

  • More about the California Grill’s reopening…
  • Passport to Dreams has another very in-depth article – this time looking at Disneyland from the perspective of a local – I found it particularly fascinating because our friends Calvin and Kate had just returned from their first visit to Disneyland (we haven’t been yet) and their impressions and feelings seem to really fit FoxxFur’s contention that Disneyland is very much a LOCAL sort of place as opposed to Disney World which is not-so-much-a-local-place (although we’d beg to differ a little bit, Epcot is our local walking park :))
  • And lastly, I found an article that I had bookmarked quite a while back (early August!) – looking at the possible intersection of Pixar and musicals, a really good read

That’s it for today, thanks for reading
