yes on the snuggling with cats! But, snuggling cats prevent me from effectively waking up in the morning. Ah well, as long as I make it school on time its worth it. I can take shorter showers.

I'm pretty sure that's the conference that a friend of mine is coming from NY for.

I am looking forward to corrupting the fellow attendees by introducing them to fine microbrew. May have to start a beer-drinking Bird of a Feather session at the conference.

Oh yes. Plainfield's Mayur. My office used to have our annual Holiday party there every year until we outgrew their downstairs dining area. Yum! Do you like Madeira?

Oh my. I didn't try their Madeira, but I shall try next time. A bottle from 1795? Wow!

I am definitely going back there! It was sooooo good!

There should be a late night LJ meetup at those food carts, don't you think?

Sounds good to me! I went there tonight with a friend at about 2:30am, but unfortunately Potato Champion was all out of fries. The sandwich I ended up getting at one of the other carts was delicious, however.

I think it would be fun to have a late-night food cart meetup this upcoming weekend. :)

And I heart the vegan rosemary tarragon sauce from Potato Champion.
