Girls Night Out!






Yesterday was a good day. 

First, I got to pick up three of my paintings newly framed from Melissa at Stone Soup. She did a great job and they looked really good. After I got those, I rode on down to see Ken at 7p7 Ceramics Gallery and handed them off. He picked out a wall to display them on and we hung one up to look at it. It was exciting to see them up!

Afterwards, headed on over to my good friend Cricket's house to share the good news and catch up with her and the cutie patootie Seava, her four month old daughter. We went to Sandy's got an egg and cheese sandwich and headed for the beach. Sat down by the water and watched the sky turn beautiful colors as Seava slept soundly on her mamma's lap.

After our beach chat, I stopped by the Studios of Key West to sign up for a class and check out the latest exhibition there. It was a portrait / writers exhibit. The writers looked at the photo portraits of people they didn't know and wrote a bio for them. Really cool stuff.

Later on, met back up with Cricket and Seava to head over to Louie's backyard. We went to the opening of a new wine bar upstairs. Beautiful views and the wine bar comes complete with open kitchen and a great tapas menu. Took in the sunset and Seava even scored us a cookie when the chef came over and offered her something other than her fist to gnaw on. Way to work it, Seava!

Headed back to Cricket's place and walked to Dions gas station to pick up a 6 pack of Amstel Light. As soon as we turned the corner you could smell their signature fried chicken. It is scarily the best fried chicken you'll ever have. 

After returning home, had a beer while enjoying the hot tub in Cricket's backyard. Sitting under the stars with Seava splashing around trying to conjure up her first words, we listened to the Ipod shuffle away. The hot tub felt amazing especially after Monday's workout on the water at the kayak place. 

Cricket made us some chicken soy burgers which tasted really good and a lot like real chicken. Probably much better for you than the gas station chicken we had smelt an hour before. Life definitely does not suck.
