Fretfully Underwhelming

I was told by so many people, "Go to Moochies! Go To Moochies! It has authentic Philly cheesesteaks." Usually when I hear the words, "Authentic and Philly cheesesteak" in one sentence I usually give a little snort and put my nose goes up in the air. Well, we finally had some Moochies - one word, "BLAH". And I wanted to like it oh so badly. I was even excited to try it, but alas, IT IS NOT A PHILLY CHEESESTEAK - it's not even good. People of the west if you want a Philly Cheesesteak the closest you will get is East Coast Subs (others who have migrated from Philly will say the same). It's not authentic but they don't claim to be, but it's still a good sandwich. Save your money on Moochies. And P.S. Cheese wiz is disgusting it's something Pat's King of Steaks came up with it to be different and you order by saying, "Wit wiz". Who the hell wants to order a cheesesteak that has the word "wiz" in it? However, I have never been a fan of Pat's or Geno's. My thoughts. The end.

Am I the only one?

Do you ever sense your worry wart is in over driver when you are alone? Mine does. Too much. And one of my biggest worries, that one of the dogs will choke and I'll have to perform the Heimlich on them... but I don't know how! I mean I can guess and I have a pretty good idea, but really it's still a guess. I also wonder how I will do it on myself when I'm eating alone.

What I'm digging

Not so much the celery but the peanut butter - yummmm. The celery is me trying to find a healthy option to get the peanut butter into my mouth. Celery is tolerable once slabbed with peanut butter.

Randomness

So we've done some random summer activities during the final days.

We found a place to rent a kayak. We enjoyed our time however, we wiped out. The kayak was not a normal tandem kayak, we later learned it was a sea kayak - a.k.a. not meant for a River with rapids.

Here we are before the wipe out. However, everything was safe and sound the only thing lost was my pair of flip flops - which was replaced by an abandoned pair of flip flops on the shore I waited for Brad on.

Before our tour of the river we took it up to a Lake with the dogs.

She is yawning but definitely looks like she is yelling at me.

Then I attended a baby shower for my dear friend and former roommate,Haley. I think it's hard to tell but she is due in October.

Then we decided to drive through some canyons.

The dogs LOVE car rides. Love them.

Monday Monday

I woke up this morning, now in the dark (hate that). I prepared myself to drudge through another Monday. When I got to work and saw this on my desktop:

And I couldn't help but laugh and smile, thus brightening my Monday. If only I came to work to find her running out from under my desk! Now, that would be a great Monday.

Itz be stormy here...

WHY?!?

I have an issue bugging me. Why when you have a potluck the first people to get food are the ones who brought NOTHING (nor do they ever) and take the BIGGEST portion?!?

I feel better.

I'm sorry for being a Negative Nelly - I just needed to get it out.

How could I forget???

I forgot to post one last picture from my trip to Chicago. At my cousin's wedding they had an old school photo booth (expect digital now). So my Nanny and decided to try it. (The second up from the bottom is my favorite)
