beaujo's

i went to beaujo's last night.

paintings by patrick pryor. amazing.

over petite burgers, corn chowder, and winter warm spinach salad. mmm.

quick hugs with stephen. smooch smooch. he shows off his cat, stella.

i met with special, who regaled me with stories including:

1. how she needs to patent her top secret shower door idea
2. her best nestle tollhouse cookie recipe, and the secret way she uses butter in her baking
3. her idea for having a cookie stand at the minnesota state fair
4. her future snl tryout because tina and amy have not yet perfected dumb

special and i can best be described as the real life versions of cher and di from clueless.

think we're not?

we can recite the whole movie, line by line.

and our favorite quote, of course, is:

"she's my friend because we both know what it's like for people to be jealous of us."

and cut.
