The highlight of my weekend was most definitely the People of Walmart party on Friday night at the Tin Can (Morgan Ford).  The premise of the party was simple — pick a photo from peopleofwalmart.com and dress like that customer.  They judged all the costumes at midnight and gave prizes to Continue Reading...

Last Saturday was the Poker Pub Crawl on the Morgan Ford strip.  It was $10 to play, you got seven cards, and had to make the best (or worst) five card poker hand.  The highest and lowest hand of the night received a percentage of the buy-in. We arrived at Colorado Bob’s around 2pm and Continue Reading...

Hope you all had a great weekend! Zack and I went to Friendly’s and Nick’s Pub, mostly to play pool and that little bobble poker game in the picture. I can’t believe we’re almost half way into January and it’s one month until Mardi Gras!  I’m just counting the Continue Reading...

(NOTE: this post refers to the Morgan Ford location) The reviews of Tin Can are always pretty varied.  Some people absolutely love the place and others think it’s just a manufactured dive bar.  It took a while for Zack and me to warm up to the place, but once we did, we were sold.  Continue Reading...

How cute is our Doberman ?  She’ll be a year old this month.  Anyway, I hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving.  The blog’s been a little dead since then because Zack and I have been enjoying the holidays with family.  Not much to report event-wise, but I’d like to get a Continue Reading...

This weekend was a fun one, even though it was a little hectic!  We spent most of it in Springfield, IL, but still managed to get around to our South City staples. Friday night we went to Nick’s Pub on Manchester to get some dinner.  Normally we go here to drink, not to eat, but I was Continue Reading...

Halloween is coming up this weekend and I hope you’ve already decided on a costume!  I kicked around a few ideas for a while before deciding on mine.  Two years ago I went as Eve, as in Adam & Eve.  Last year I went as Amanda from Saw I and wore the reverse bear trap mask.  I Continue Reading...

On Saturday we went to Morganford in Motion – a music festival on Morganford in the Tower Grove South neighborhood, near Tin Can and 3 Monkeys.  It wasn’t as crowded as I thought it would be, probably because of the cooler weather, but it was a good time.  Do you know that crazy Continue Reading...

Oops, in the midst of my hangover today I remembered that I hadn’t posted the weekend preview!  There’s so much going on this weekend it’s going to be hard to choose.  Leave a comment and let me know what you’ve got on this weekend’s agenda. Taste of St. Louis The Continue Reading...
