Blog drought

I've been so lazy with the blogging the last week. One hundred million things flying around in my head, and just as many things to do, so the blog had to play second fiddle for a bit. Started to make some fall plans. I'm super excited that Em and Erik is coming this weekend, even if it's only for a week. So fun shopping, good food and touring around. 

We managed to get reservations to The Standard Grill. Apparently the cost for a reservation is your first born! Ridiculously hard to get a table. I thought we were in a recession, but I guess the hot restaurants continue to be packed. I heard that the food is good (maybe not great), the service is somewhat slow (but I'll sit there all night long if they insist), but the crowd and decor are supposed to be great. We'll see—it should at least be fun just catching up all four of us.
