Fish. Fish. Fish.

You may have recalled that I wrote a post for Girls Guide to the Galaxy about all the fish fries I wanted to visit this Lenten season. Well here's a quick follow up-

Ash Wednesday: St. Simon
I was partial because I grew up in this parish, but it really deserves an 'F.' The fish was nothing special, the fries were disgusting, and I'm confident the 'service' would have been pretty much nonexistent if my mom and I hadn't been recognized by a few people.

Friday #1: Burger King
If you have to go the fast food route, it was better than McDonald's Filet O' Fish.

Friday #2: St. Cecilia's
Read my review! Nom nom nom.

Friday #3: Fail
I was in Colorado. And I cheated and had BBQ that night even though I had an amazing catfish poorboy for lunch. Whoopsie daisy.

Friday #4: St. Gabriel
The best food so far. And the staff was friendly. I did carry-out, but wish I had time to dine-in - they give you free beers while you're in line! Although.... the dine-in line was really long.

Back to the food- I got cod (your basic square filet, but it was perfectly crispy), mac and cheese, and fries. It was delicious. The boy got catfish and said it was just okay... but I think it's because it sat in a styrofoam box for a half hour.

Friday #5: St. Agatha
Best bang for your buck. $6 gets you a huge piece of (delicious) catfish, pasta, cole slaw, potato salad and fries, not to mention bread out on the tables. And they have Polish beers. Hmmmmm.

Oh and did I mention you can smell the brewery from there? Win. Here's a couple pics...
Look at all that fooooood. 
Polish beer! Don't be scared. They were all good.

Darling I Do


Heard this song on Parenthood this week (while Haddie and Alex were dancing at prom) and thought it was so perfect. Enjoy.

Impulse.

This morning, I had no plans for the weekend. And now, I've got tickets for the Cardinal's game on Saturday with a couple of my very favorite girls! Here's to beers, hot dogs, and sunshine! Oh, and baseball too.

Daydreaming.

Getting ready to decide if I want to renew my lease or look elsewhere for a place to call home. Longing for an exposed brick wall, fireplace, new furniture, pictures on the wall, real hardwood floors...

Spring Salad

Made a version of this salad last night. Hmm hmmm good. Mine was apple + radish + cucumber tossed in a bowl with olive oil + honey + salt + pepper. 

It was delicious. 

Looking for something?
