I'll have to say, peanut butter and bacon pancakes don't automatically sound delicious. Were they?

Everything's better with bacon. ...

Went out with my friends for dinner on Friday, to a new diner that opened up in our area. Food was good, as was the service. I ordered breakfast for dinner, and got peanut butter and bacon pancakes with a side of sausage.

Was it one of those old-fashioned kind of diners like the characters on Seinfeld hang out at? (One year, I ate Thanksgiving dinner in that very diner.) Or more of a nouveau version? In my city, there are old-fashioned diners left over from their original era, but anything new would be either more foodie-friendly with creative twists on classic things (e.g., a place that specializes in hot dogs with unusual toppings) or sort of flashily retro.

The family is getting together the end of January and going out for a meal, and then a round of Monster Mini Golf. We figured that would be something Trent would enjoy, and he's never played it before.

I've never been there, but I've been to a Top Golf, and I'll bet it's similar. Do you stand in an elevated open room with a regular golf club and ball, and try to hit the ball into one of the large holes scattered about the grounds, some trickier than others and therefore worth more points?

the party store for some decorations

For what?

Today it's sunny and above freezing, so most of it is melting away.

I have New York, Chicago and Denver weather on my phone as well as Minneapolis. Recently I was scrolling through and thought, wow, this is fantastic! It's going to get into the 40s and maybe close to 50 next week! Then I realized I was looking at New York.

Hiya BetterMost friends.

Another birthday has come and gone!

Went out with my friends for dinner on Friday, to a new diner that opened up in our area. Food was good, as was the service. I ordered breakfast for dinner, and got peanut butter and bacon pancakes with a side of sausage.

The family is getting together the end of January and going out for a meal, and then a round of Monster Mini Golf. We figured that would be something Trent would enjoy, and he's never played it before.

Spent the weekend ripping some music. I have a ton of CDs that I would listen to in the car, but my new car doesn't have a CD player. It does have USB ports in it, so I am ripping the music to put it into MP3 format, and then I can play it in the car.

Monday is a holiday, so the bank is closed. I'll have another late night and sleep in tomorrow.

We were predicted to get snow yesterday, and of course, predictions varied from 1 - 3 inches to 3 - 6 inches. Not wanting to deal with getting groceries in the snow, I scheduled a pick-up time for Friday after work, so the groceries had been packed away relatively early in the weekend, and then after that I went out with my friends to that new diner I mentioned before. On Saturday I got up early, went to the post office, the party store for some decorations, and then filled the car up with gas, just in case.

5 minutes after I got home,the snow started to fall. Looked pretty out the window. Of course, it stopped when it was getting dark, and we only got about 1 inch of the stuff.

Today it's sunny and above freezing, so most of it is melting away.
