apprehensive of the half…

The days are quickly approaching when I must start a regular training schedule for my first half-marathon; start date, December 29th, 2010.  Yes, this date is prior to the New Year and I haven’t much motivational surroundings.  Parties full of tasty morsels and Bacchus inspired beverages tempt my natural foodie.

Alas, I will persevere!  No opera fudge with candied cherries or Gorgonzola Tomato filled pollenta cups will keep me up all night socializing with AMAZING Boise people.  They must understand I’m in training, right?

LOL!

Happy Holiday’s to us all!!!

the new, the blue or the one you wore last

Borrowing a matriarchal saying – the new, the blue or the one you wore last – I challenge you to visit our local Boise spirit haunts after soaking in this article from the NY Times about inventing and reinventing the cocktail. There is something nostalgic about sporting your grandfather’s suit jacket or your great grandmother’s broach, pulling up a stool in a downtown lounge and sipping on a Moscow Mule or a Manhattan hoping to channel their wise of living through such a deep recession.
