I helped throw a party for my girlfriend this weekend, and it was a smashing success! Cessy, her roommate, suggested we make tacos and let everyone dig in on their own. I cooked and seasoned about six pounds of ground turkey, made some killer guacamole, and Cess and Holland dished up some of their signature from-scratch salsa and a homemade cake with homemade icing. The food was gooooooood! But it also meant I was very, very busy all day Sunday. And since yesterday was Holland’s birthday, I spent all day with her. We went to see The 40 Year Old Virgin last night and I have to say that I have not laughed that hard in a very, very long time. It was one of the most laugh-out-loud funny movies I have ever seen#–a little blue in parts, but very funny.

I want to point everyone in NY to my friend Holly’s show Place Crazy that will be at the New York Music Theatre Festival this month. She’s excited about it and says it’s going to be great, so here’s hoping! I’m going to see it at some point, though I’m not sure which night.
