Thing 8: scenes from dinner and a movie

Nothing kicks the Monday out of Monday like ditching the gym and getting dinner and a movie with the boy. "But what about today's thing?" Well, we'll take a photo of it, my side, your side...and that will be our thing, so off we went.

"Up in the Air" is playing at the Emmaus Theatre, for $3 during the week. This theater is great, and I'm not just saying that because my ticket stub won us a free popcorn tonight. The theater is right by the movie tracks, and you never know when you'll hear a freight train pass. I don't get to go there nearly enough.

"Up in the Air" is the 3rd of the "best picture" nominees we've seen so far...will we make the other 7 before the Oscars? (*sigh* This tradition was much easier when there were only 5 nominess.)  My restaurant shot has been processed with a texture from pareeerica on flickr.

Thing 7: mmmMMMM YuMMy

Did anyone ask for a Super Bowl party to go? E is shredding pulled pork at the moment, and I'm rounding up the desserts to take to our friends.

As it traditional, (three thing-a-days and counting) I made the peanut butter cookie bars with melted chocolate....this year I also made brownie cookie sandwiches. I think I like regular brownies better, the icing is too much sweet for me....but I was trying to mix it up a bit. I'm wishing I tried something like brownie with caramel and seasalt, like we saw on that food network show a couple of weeks ago. Oh well, next get together.
