Quicky 2

A few pictures I took while relaxing on the deck at the Tavern on the Water. The white tent was set up for the Flip Flop Regatta which is one of the Largest Regatta's in New England. It benefits The ALLY Foundation. If you live in the area you may remember hearing about her attack in the news. I would recommend clicking on the link and checking it out, so so sad.


One of the best views of the city.
The sailboats crossing the finish line! I wish I had taken more pictures of the boats coming in, it was really neat. Also, the Vineyard Vines boat was there at the finish line taking pictures and tweeting about it!
I gave in and got the over priced Gaucamole and it was pretty good, not the best. BUT the little gem in the pitcher is the best Sangria I've had since Spain.
We had a nice time always great to have a weekend relaxing fun weekend in the city!

Cath and Kimba

Here is a picture from last night, hard to see because it was taken in the dark on my iPhone.

Cath is one of MG's mother's very best friends, may be the preppiest person I have every met, EVERYTHING she wears matches perfectly! And is always dressed to the nines! Oh and she is very fun and funny as all heck!!!

Quicky

I didn't realize that the "show me yours" was even going on this month over at Kelly's Korner, I thought I was so original! :) But I think i'll still get some pictures up of the wedding.

Speaking of weddings, next week a very dear family friend Jillian is getting married to the fab Jason, "J&J" sounds like a drink! She is such a wonderful person and I am so blessed to know her and family, will post pictures as I know it will be breath taking.

Last evening we had MG's fathers surprise 60th birthday party, it was indeed a surprise and that in itself is a huge success! It was at The Daily Catch which is right on the water in the Seaport, if you need to host a party I would suggest this place 100%, we had MG's surprise 30th birthday there and if they can handle that crew they can handle anyone! You say why have the two parties at the same place? Because it is that awesome and we figured he wouldn't catch on because there is no way you'd have it there also! Again success!

We're having a city weekend as we knew we'd hit major bride traffic at the bridge heading down to the Cape and about 20 minutes ago JJ updated her facebook status "8 mile back up to the bridge", happy that's not us! But of course we miss not being down on the water. SO to make up for it we're heading to Tavern on the Water in the Navy Yard for some cocktails and an app, it's about 97 degrees outside so where else should one be if not on the Cape! I'll post some pictures on twitter!

Not sure if I'm the only one who does this but before I go out to dinner or even go to any bar/restaurant I always check out the website and menu, I like to have a decision before I get there or at least a good idea. MG is the opposite, he would rather wait until he's there and in the setting to make a decision. Now i've been to Tavern on the Water about 50 times and I know what the menu is like but that doesn't stop me from looking at it this afternoon and what do I see gaucamole and chips for $9.95 doesn't that seem a bit pricey? I mean the calamari is $10.95, how is it possible it can only be a dollar more then gauc and chips. maybe it's just me. All this gauc talk I really want to get it, but have an issue paying much, we'll see!

Last week was a whirlwind. We flew to DC for MG's grandmothers funeral service, she was laid to rest at Arlington Cemetery, may have been one of the most emotional funerals I have ever been to, it was in the end very peaceful. The Marines were truly sincere, you could just tell in their voices. I'm getting chocked up thinking about it.

Well i guess this wasn't as "quick" as I was planning!

Hope you all are having a wonderful weekend!

Only if you're Kimba vol. II

We had a great weekend on the Cape, more on that later. 

We got back around 1pm this afternoon so I cleaned up a bit and headed out to get some things done. I felt pretty bad ass driving around in the Jeep with the top down, the wind blowing on this hot Sunday. I pulled into Stop n Shop and the sky looked like it could rain but it was still pretty sunny and I hadn't listened to any weather reports but what was happening on the Cape.

I head inside grab my cart, swear at myself that I forgot our 15 bags in car to be "green". So I head to get a lb of turkey when Music Guy calls me and says where are you, I say I'm at the store, do you think it's bad and i should leave...he says no, you have about a half hour so don't leave just grab some things as you're there and leave. Sounds perfect. So I get a few things and pretty much feel i'm on supermarket sweep! I quickly check out and as i'm getting my notsogreen bags together and walk outside. It is not raining but I know it is about to. The second i start running to the car it starts to downpour. I throw the bags in the back and try to put the top back on. Knowing there is no way I can do it myself. So i jump in and speed out of the parking lot. I of course run into traffic so picture this...pouring rain and no top on your car, can't do anything but make sure your cell phone and blackberry are covered. I finally pull onto our street Music Guy comes running out and we put the top on and I unload the Jeep and walk inside and the rain stops. Classic! 

I will say i went back out to the Jeep with a towel and cleaned everything up. It actually washed up the sand from the weekend nicely, though i was soaking wet. 

MG told me to go inside and he'd take care of it all, but i figured I was already very wet and that it was turning fun! 

Two months from today we'll be getting married! Looking forward to it!!!

We have a busy week ahead of us! MG's cousin is flying in on Tuesday and she's coming to stay with us on Thursday and Friday. My mom is flying in on Friday, we're going to my first dress fitting that evening, Saturday is my Boston shower and then we're going down to the Cape Saturday afternoon. Then come Sunday my mom and I are going to Yarmouth to meet with my flower lady! Fun stuff coming up!!!!!

I do promise I will be posting pictures of Liane's wedding this week!

Jacked up

My bloglines is on crack, it shows I have the number of post you've written total I have left to read. Boooo

I worked a lot this weekend and also did some cleaning. It was nice to be home this weekend as we'll be heading down to the Cape on Thursday for the weekend. And then the following weekend I'll be leaving for Wisconsin on Thursday for Liane's wedding. Yeah!!!

Off to the gym, I should just run outside it is WONDEFUL outside!

Here I am....

HOWDY!

All is well at chez Kimba, over the top busy but doing well!

It hasn't entirely been all work and no play, i've had a little fun this week. 

Work is going really well, i'm super happy but don't get me wrong i'm wiped and stressed 24/7 but I know that'll change. I give all of you working moms so much credit, I have no idea how you do it.  

Friday evening I got home from work at 7:15 (mind you it takes 15 min to get home) and Music Guy's parents were due to arrive any minute, i've never felt like a worst host. But hey it's family and we were going out to dinner so it was fine, you know that feeling right? We had dinner at Paolo's in Charlestown and it was yummy! I had Scallops Risotto and some great Pinot Grigio. Though dinner was wonderful I realized I guess i'm not as big of a scallops fan as I thought i was. I am one of those people who order the most terrible things when we go out to eat. I have a thing going with MG that if I order something he thinks I won't like he can't let me order it. I've been saved by that before, but Scallops sounds safe so I thought. Anyone would have loved the dish.

Saturday we worked out and picked up a baby gift for a couples baby shower we were going to that afternoon. I know what you're thinking a couples sower for a baby, poor Music Guy. But not so fast, it was for a gal I work with and there is a group of us that are all around the same age (of course once again I was the youngest) so it really was a party. I hope to post pictures, they had some really cute v-day details. And like any normal baby shower they had a full bar and packed cooler. It was a pink and red theme and I would say I was the most pink decked out one of the group. Shocked I'm sure. Music Guy had a ball and so happy to finally meet the crew I always talk about. And they were happy to know I really did have a husband to be, guess I need to get out with them more. We came home and made a great dinner, steaks and tater tots. Dude, most underrated side on earth, oh yeah and veggies.  

Today we went to breakfast with MG's parents and then we all went to look at some open houses. Eight to be exact. It rained, snowed and hailed all during our trek around Charlestown. We saw one we really liked, I'm about to do some research on the street and the deeds on the place. It's not in our ideal location, but knowing the area street by street doesn't hurt. Let me poke myself in the eye first. 

This week will be even crazier than the last, but hey I signed up for it! 

Boring post I know. I need to find a work/life balance and when that happens I'll have more "fun" things to talk about!

Happy weekend!

Super Saturday

I'm checking in to let you know my first day went very well, so well I’m writing this post from work! Ok it's not that bad! Music Guy and his buddies headed to NYC this morning to visit our buddy Kinger. Why I wasn't invited to ride along so I could visit Suz I don't know, men!


I have a pretty good weekend on tap if I do say so myself! A, J and Kateson are headed to see 27 Dresses. It seems most of you who have seen it have really liked it; I also know one of you out there did not like it. I know it'll be "cute" and it's a good girly movie when the boys are away. I'm about to head to the gym and then to do our Super Bowl shopping!!! J & G are coming over to watch the game and I'm in charge of putting the menu together (per Music Guy) he also said he'll be home in time to do damage control! What’s that suppose to mean! :) So I’m thinking I’ll head to Costco, can’t go wrong right? J & G are taking care of the main course so the rest is up to Kimba! Giddy up!

Enjoy the weekend, it’s in the 40’s here and I’m loving it! Smells like spring!

GO PATS!!!!!

Did you know?

We watched part of Edward Scissorhands this weekend and Winona Ryder's name in the movie is "Kim", her boyfriend in the movie kept calling her "Kimba". I had no idea, funny random thought if you ask me.

We went to the Cape Saturday to look for our rehearsal dinner place and we found exactly what we wanted. Our whole thing for the weekend is to keep everything close. And to have our guest run into each other on the street.  We also stopped at the hotel and they are completely redoing the whole place. It was a bit tired looking and needed to be updated. The funny thing is it is the same hotel Music Guy's sister used so when the guest go back it'll be like a whole new place. 

I'll post details about the rehearsal this week. 
Is it tacky to have two something blue? I have two thoughts and I think I want to do them both. I really need to get my flower ideas in order stat.  

Last week at my current position, early mornings and late evenings here I come! 

I hope you're having a great weekend! I love how we were suppose to get "flurry's" it's a lot more than flurry's if you ask me!

Gouda Football

We watched the Patriots game over at J & G's and we brought this wonderful oozing bundle of joy.

Crescent-Wrapped Gouda



Crescent-Wrapped Gouda Ingredients
7 ounces round natural Gouda cheese
1 egg, beaten
1 8 oz. can crescent dinner rolls


Instructions for Crescent-Wrapped GoudaHeat oven to 350 degrees. Cut cheese round in half crosswise to form 2 circles; remove from wax. Separate dough into 4 rectangles; firmly press perforations to seal. Place one rectangle on top of a second; repeat with remaining rectangles, making two double-thick rectangles. Press each into a 6-inch square; place cheese circle in center of each. Pull corners of dough to top center of cheese. Press dough tightly against cheese. Twist dough in center to seal, twisting off excess dough. Press seams to seal. Repeat to make second gouda wrap. Press out excess dough. With canape cutter or paring knife, cut out decorative shapes; place on top of each gouda wrap. Brush with beaten egg. Place 3 inches apart on ungreased cookie sheet. Bake 18 to 22 minutes or until golden brown. Cool 10 mintues before serving.


Summing it all up, I took the Crescent and wrapped it around the gouda and put it in the oven until it started to brown and ooze. I did not use an egg, but I'm sure it adds more to the crust.

Just cut with a knife and dig in. Some people like to use crackers, but i don't see the need with the crust as a "holder"!

We had a very nice weekend. Friday we stayed in and rented Superbad and I was fast asleep by 10pm. Saturday we went to the gym and then ran around to Costco, Target, Best Buy and two Circuit Cities. Why you may ask, Music Guy talked me into buying a new TV. Which really was needed. The TV we had was one I got when I was a Sophomore in High School. I really do think it out weights me. This is the best time of year to buy one as the Super Bowl is coming and they drop the prices and they go back up the Monday after.

Speaking of Super Bowl, Lets Go Pats! It was a fun game to watch with a group of fun people. What was not so fun, the game after. My poor Packers, not even "poor" I'm a bit use to seeing Brett Favre throwing an interception in a big game. It sucked and I was not happy.

Sorry for the lack of post, with everything going on last week and just the stress I've put on myself when the weekend came I had no energy to be creative. I'll kick that!

Some TV shows I'm all about:

Snoop Dogg Father Hood
One Tree Hill
Biggest Loser
Cashmere Mafia
Cheers (I never watched it nor watched reruns, I am now though, I heart TV Land)
Sex and the City (again never had HBO, reruns)

All of my other shows are reruns now.

Speaking of Sex and the City, does anyone have a good place where I can rent the DVD's. I really think I'm going to be a big fan but I do not want to spend $200 to catch up. I've been DVRing it but it is always all over the place.

What dust?

After a great workout this morning I spent a good part of the afternoon cleaning. And if I do say so myself we are pretty much dust free! Always a good feeling. But tomorrow I'm getting after my closet. That should be fun! HA!

We had a nice evening hanging out with the Hicks last night. They got married in September so needless to say there was a lot of wedding talk.

Speaking of weddings...do you have any suggestions on wedding shoes? What are good sites to check out? And some dos and don'ts?

Hope you're having a good weekend! I was a huge fan of seeing the sun today!

First of a few

Here are some people pictures. I still have a few more people who will pass along their pictures from the weekend. Here are a few from my mom!

Friday night my dad hosted a welcoming dinner for Music Guy's parents. My step brother, step sister and their family came also so did my mom and brother. A very nice way for MG's parents to meet my step mom's kids.

As I posted about on Friday we had a 6:30am flight out of Boston. We all got up at 4:30am and were at Logan by 5:30am and in line only to be told we would have a four our delay for "mechanical problems". They had to reschedule us to take the next flight at 11:15am (a flight from Milwaukee to Boston was coming in at 10:45am) which they said was going to be carrying the part to fix our plane. And being the first flight out of Boston means that plane was there over night. So you're telling me they had no idea about this last night and it was only at 5:30am they found it out? There was no notice before 5:30am the flight would be delayed. Midwest Air was recently sold and I can assure you our flight was not full and neither was the 11:15 flight so it makes since to cancel the 6:30 flight and put us all on one. We did get out on time and made it to Milwaukee around 1:15pm. Got our rental car and we off to Madison in no time.

I took them around the UW campus and stopped at a local bar for the freshest Miller Lite and fried Cheese Curds, it was a small order. You really only need a taste, you want more, but really shouldn't.

The rest of the evening was spent at my dads for some family time.


Here I am with my mom and brother
Music Guy and I
Saturday Morning we headed to Union South for a over the top Tailgate party. My Godparents rent a room every year and it is catered with brunch and "tailgate" beverages. 8:30 is a little early, but for the Badgers you have to just go with it! Part of the Marching band comes and puts on a little show. We had great deck seating overlooking the show.

My mom and I


My dad picking on me.....

Here we're getting out game faces on!

The band!

Who ever this guy is....I love your hat
Badger Red



My team came out on top but Music Guy was a good sport!!!


It was such a wonderful weekend I got to spend a lot of quality time with my family and was so happy to share it with Music Guy and his parents! I will have more pictures to share as they come in.

I enjoyed my day off yesterday. I spent some time at Natick Collections, and JCrew I was not impressed with your new store nor the people you have working there. I then went to Barnes & Noble sipped a Latte and read a few errr 5 gossip magazines. Then it was off to get my weekend errands done and tend to the my house cleaning.

We were at the gym a little after 6 this morning and all day i'm a few hours a head of myself. I think my afternoon is going to drag a tad, nothing a Diet Coke can't take care of!

Happy to be home!!!

Sunday, November 11, 2007

And we're home

We had a very uneventful flight back this afternoon. I will update you tomorrow with stories and pictures! And there are a lot of pictures.

43 shopping days left...I am off tomorrow and am looking forward to maybe getting a few gifts out of the way. I do know I'll spend a good hour plus at Target as the last time I was there I was rushed, and I just do not like to be rushed while at Target!

I tried all weekend to blog from my BlackBerry and it was successful. I tried to post on Friday about 10 times and finally it worked. I was getting so ticked, it's "easy" to do it that way.

Off to Papa Gino's to pick up my Super Veggie Pizza!

Thank you Red Sox!

What a weekend of Sports here in New England!

Our weekend started out with a nice dinner with Music Guy's family at Figs. If you live in the area and have never been I suggest you make a reservation there soon. The Charlestown location is the original and slightly larger then their Beacon Hill location, but both are pretty tiny but worth the wait!

The rest of the weekend I laid low and rested my foot, which by the way is getting better. It's funny how staying off of it really helps the healing process. The Sox games were unbelievable, Red Sox Nation is one happy bunch today! Or as Fox likes to call us just "The Nation", very fitting! Bring on Rolling Rally II!

The Sox played in 14 playoff games times that by 4 hours per game = 56 hours of playoff emotion in the month of October. If you really want to get into the numbers us Sox fans have devoted this season they played a total of 176 games many of which went into extra innings and rain delays. Keeping up with the same numbers that would be 704 hours of Sox baseball from April to October! No I didn't watch every game but did know what was going on during most of ones I was not able to watch. We do love that dirty water!!!

All I really need to say about the Pats is you can "run up" the score any day in my book. If the NFL(teams and coaches) is going to say you only won THREE Super Bowls by cheating then what can you say about 52-7 and the fact they have not scored less then 34 points all season oh yeah and haven't lost! thankyouverymuch.....

I had an extremely intense meeting first thing this morning (perfect timing after going to bed on the latter side of 1am) and the week seems equally as insane. But hey we're World Champs! And my boy Mikey Lowell is the MVP! (I would post a link but it's taken too long on the Boston Newspapers sites, a lot of work getting done today it seems!)

Another positive about a crazy Monday is I'm wearing pink and an argyle sweater!

Paper Source

I've been told no bride will ever been the same after her first trip to the Paper Source. And I concur. I spent time their both Saturday and Sunday. Saturday was the quicker trip of the two (Music Guy was along) I picked out the paper and envelops for our Save the Dates. I was pretty happy we picked out the style in no time. We both agreed on it and we were out the door.

Not so quick....We got home and the paper we picked out was different than we thought. It was as thin as printer paper. So Sunday afternoon I headed back to the Back Bay to get heavier paper. They do not carry the circle paper in white in anything other than normal paper weight. Which means I had to buy a circle cutter and bigger sheets. Which is fine expect for the dumb bunny who helped me showed me the type I wanted but decided to sell me larger paper of what I had just returned.

But the second time wasn't a bust, I spent a good hour plus looking through all of their books of invites. It is a lot easier to choose when you're looking at it in person rather than on line. I found some really clever ideas and a lot of really stupid ideas. Cowboy boot anyone? I also wrote down some of the couples websites to stalk their wedding site for even more ideas. I was disappointed in some of the couples. I was imagining them to be a little more classy but it looked like they only got their invites right. Very strange. So at some point this week it's back to return the paper.

We had a great weekend. Got a lot down around the our place (i'm having company next weekend so i've got to make sure it's up to par for her). Friday night we headed to Ironside in Charlestown with the Hicksters to watch the game. Even though we got their an hour before the game was to start we still had a good 10 people a head of us for dinner. We ended up watching a few innings and heading back to our place and getting pizza. Which I think is just as much fun! It was so crowded I felt i was getting hip checked every two seconds. Some dude figured the way to get my attention to move out of his way was to push me in the back and then to stand there as I didn't move the the side he preferred. At that point I just looked at him and said F'in go around me. So I was not apposed to leaving after another 20 minutes.

Saturday was housework said paper trip and the Sox. We went to Lir on Boylston St to watch the Sox. MurDogs sister had reserved tables and it really was a pretty good place to watch the game. We knew during the 8th it was going to be a long game so we shared a cab with A & B of Fave couple and headed back home to stay up until almost 2pm to watch the Sox lose. That sucked. BUT they'll come back tonight! Great Pats game, this team is the real deal!!! Fun as hell to watch.

Am I the only person who still watches Desperate Housewives?

Also Am I the only person who watched Keeping Up with the Kardashian's on E?

LETS GO RED SOX!

Mini Re-cap

Happy Fall!

This will not be much of a blogging week. I will be in and out of the office all week, and my mom is coming!!!!

I was really looking forward to this weekend as we had nothing planned! Friday was a house cleaning evening for me, no joke I was excited!

Then there was Saturday...

I had a lot of errands to run, normal Target, grocery store and the oh so fun car inspection.

I was finishing up my morning with a trip to Trader Joe's. I should know better then to ever go on the weekends, the place is always packed and annoying. I got to the check out had all of my items rung up and I looked into my tote and my wallet was not in there. I quickly ran to my car praying it must have fallen out. Nope, you guessed it while at Trader Joe's some asshole stole my wallet from my bag. I know it happened there as after I left Target I went through a drive thru and got a diet coke and used my debit card and then went straight to the store.

I have a feeling it happens often at that location. It's a shitty part of Cambridge and the place is always crowded. Also the manager was all to quick to come up with a solution. The lady checking me out called him over and he said "Do you want to file a police report" I said "I guess, I don't know what to do this hasn't happened to me before", replies "me either" and had the police on the phone in 2.5 seconds. And gave me my groceries and quickly asked me to wait in the parking lot. A bit pushy to get me away from other customers.

So I waited for the police to come gave them my info and story. One officer asked if I noticed anyone peculiar strange. I had to laugh and say "of course it's Trader Joe's" He laughed but I don't think he found it as funny as I did!

So that's that, I spent the rest of the afternoon dealing with the Bank and my Credit Cards. And trying to remember what I had in there. Here are a few items that I should not have stressed about but did.

Banana Republic Gift Card
JCrew Gift Card
MBTA Pass (Friday after work I stopped at Haymarket and added $25 to my balance)
Lilly receipt for a return that has yet to show up on my credit card for a credit

That's all she wrote on that subject, thinking about it makes me sick.

Sunday we went to a few open houses in Charlestown, saw a few we liked but didn't love the location. Music Guy's parents came over to watch the Pats game. And that is about it! A little stress but all in all a very low key weekend!

Hope you guys had a great one!

Promise to come back on a happier note!

Friends and beaches

I didn't end up going to the Cape this weekend. I had too much to get completed around the house and at work before we take off for our next wedding round. But of course I made the most of staying in the city!

I headed to visit my girl All Things Sketchy in Marblehead to check out her new digs. Sara and her man Ben just bought a wonderful new house and I was so happy to finally see it. Because of course when they're having their house warming party I can not attend, yes you guessed itI have a wedding.

We went to a bunch of little super cute shops and got a bunch of little super cute things. I got a pair of crystal starfish earrings which Sara said "is so Kimba" and she got a pair of silver starfish earrings to match her necklace. If you know her she loves starfish! It really is no wonder we get along so well! Our next stop was an accessory store that was having a 40% off summer sale, I got a bracelet that matches the earrings and necklace set we wore in J's wedding. And Sara got a pair of madras flip flops.
Our final stop was the best In The Pink. They were also having a 40% off sale on their summer items. I got two dresses and a clutch for the price of one and a half dresses. Both I will be wearing to the rehearsal dinner and wedding this weekend. The rehearsal dinner dress is from Day Lilly the Kinsey Dress Seersucker I am going to pair it with the jewelery I wore to J's wedding and strappy silver heels. They show it with gold in the picture but when I had it on silver dressed up the look. **Side note I prefaced in my last post I will still be wearing white, linen and seersucker this weekend, so no comments about it**
The next dress I will be wearing to the wedding is from Social Butterfly the Laurel Dress Solid in pink. The bamboo ring is gold so that calls for gold stud earrings and strappy gold heels. To top off both looks I got the Patio Clutch in parade pink.

After that it was time to go home! It was such a blast to see Sara outside of our once a week quick lunch! She's just wonderful!

Sunday morning Kateson and I went to Cranes Beach in Ipswich. It is her favorite beach and I can see why, every where you look was the most breath taking sights!

Monday was spent cleaning and packing and the evening ended with Music Guy and I having a "cookout" (just the two of us) with turkey burgers and a potato veggie bomb and watching the Sox!

I hope you all had a wonderful Labor Day weekend and have a great week! I hope to check in from ACK along with a lot of great pictures!

Cheers!

VERY HAPPY

Well we finally have our Jeep! No not the green...but black! Which i'm actually happy we didn't get the green, we're planning on keeping this car forever. It' s going to be one of those old school Jeeps you see on the beach, and the green would get tiring after a while i'm sure.

I pick it up tomorrow! The only thing is we bought it on the Cape so I have to come back down here tomorrow night and then again on Thursday with the Bride!
Can't wait to post pictures!

I can't believe it's less than a week before the big wedding! We've had a great weekend hanging out with the Bride and Groom to be. Only a three day work week for me so these next few days will be uber busy. But of course i'll be checking in!

Hope you guys had a great weekend! Crazy here on the Cape it's been only in the 60's.
