Link a Dink
Seems like by Friday my head is so mushy I can't do much but empty its contents here. So that's what I'll do. I've been amazingly busy at work. The kind where I'm barely at home. I've been missing Matt and Tabby loads. But I have next week to play with them, so yay!

We went to see Spamalot last night. I cannot say enough good things about this musical. I enjoyed it more than just about anything I've ever seen. It is completely irreverent, a bit bawdy, and utterly hilarious. It's sort of a cross between Monty Python's search for the Holy Grail and Camelot with a load of Brodaway humor thrown in. The absolute highlight of humor for me was the (Lady of the) Laker Girls cheerleading Routine. K-I-N-G-A-R-T-H-U-R ..... King Arthur, yea! King Arthur. Absolutely brilliant!!

Dinner @ Chedds wasn't bad either. I had roast beef and horseradish cheddar. Yum-O.

What else? Oh yes. I've collected some really brilliant links this week. Don't know what's going on, but there seems to be some really good stuff coming out lately. First and foremost, since I was just talking grilled cheese, I thought this article, with 10 tips to perfect grilled cheese, was worth a read. Personally, we use the George Foreman to make our grilled cheese sandwiches (and quesadillas for that matter), but the stovetop method is classic.

Before I forget, I must also share the latest bag that I.Must.Have!!!! My day-to-day bag, a lime green Ogio backpack, while very nice, has been feeling a bit large lately. I was cruising around ebags (luv that site) and found Overland Equipment. After perusing their website, I have decided that I must have a "Donner." They come in great colors and are imminently functional. I am only sliiightly deterred that the bag seems to be named after a rather ill-fated family vacation. I also notice they sell a laptop bag that would actually hold my giant laptop.

I use the Foreman for quesadillas, too! And I\'m also excited about The Office. I made a frantic call to Drew while driving home last night (it was around 8:37) because I thought the premiere was last night. And did you hear about NBC Direct? Seems that if you miss that week\'s episode you can watch it online for free. Love that!



So glad you enjoyed Spamalot. We loved it as well.

We too use our Foreman for grilled cheese. Mmmm grilled cheese!

I am so pysched as well for TV next week as well: The Office, Ugly Betty, Heroes, Bionic Woman and How I Met Your Mother. I think I got everything.



Thank you for posting about Spamalot, I'm off to NYC next month with a friend to see the city and the musical.

I have a George Foreman grill too, it's one of the ones you can remove the plates on and clean them in the dishwasher. Love it! I love making burgers for dinner when it's raining.

Isn't Crafty Daisies the best blog? I love it, I get lost in that site for hours.

I'm a new reader by the way, found you through Lisanne.



I've decided to do handmade gifts for my family this year so I need to reacquaint myself with crochet so I've been using Crafty Daisies crochet school posts as a starting point..now I just hope I finish my mothers afghan in time for christmas.

I'm ready for premiere week..Heroes, CSI (all three shows), How I met your Mother, Supernatural..can't wait..now if I could only pull my husband away from watching college football long enough to watch Heroes on DVD before next week!
