Friday hodge podge.
1. Where is your favorite place to eat breakfast.
I have many breakfast eatery haunts. Such exciting place as the “W” Cafe in Gunnison and the Arrowhead Inn Cimmaron (Oh, sweet Mary, those scones!) But P17 in uptown Denver has these amazing bottomless guava juice mimosas and a braised and broiled uncured bacon dish that I literally dream about. Last week I had Sunday brunch at Lucilles – and that didn’t suck either – count the ways to use the butter !!
2. What is your favorite place to get stinkin’ drunk
Besides my living room? I still have a warm spot for the king of dive bars, The PS Lounge on Colfax. For a bit more flair, a great place to get stinking drunk is The Cruise Room in the Oxford Hotel in LoDo.
3. What do you do to ask for forgiveness (see above)
I have been known to ground myself after a particularly boozy evening. I stand in front of the mirror and give myself a stern talking too and then I am grounded to my house for a few weeks.
4. What is your absolute, must have on hand condiment?
Huy Fong Sriracha sauce – an Asian hot sauce that is perfect with eggs, tater tots, fries and a Pat’s Philly Cheese sammich. A bottle must always be in the fridge.
5. Do you follow celebrity gossip? Who gets your attention.
I don’t. I don’t get TMZ television or any of the other television gossip shows. I don’t go to gossip web pages. I guess if I had to pick it would be The Soup, with Joel McHale.
!. My favorite place to eat breakfast is wherever I happen to be when thinking, “I should probably break my fast.”
@. My favorite place to get stinkin’ drunk is in my own home, plugged into my computer. Surprisingly, that is how I found my husband.
#. When asking forgiveness, I apologize & then mentally crucify myself for a spell.
$. My absolute must have on hand condiment is Thom. I’m needy.
%. I do follow celebrity gossip via http://www.thesuperficial.com because the commentary is near genius.
1) Country Road cafe in Kitteridge, Colorado. So good even Roy would approve.
2) Backyard Patio or Dazzle on lovely Grey Goose Cosmos…I should of been a cabana boy.
3) Since I am always right and do nothing wrong, I never have had to ask for forgiveness. I am aware of omnipotence.
4) The basic is Ketsup.
5) Left over People magazines. Great toilet reading and it has a crossword that I can complete in one sitting. I focus on stars from my time. I like where are they now on stars from the 80’s.
1. Boozy or non-boozy? Boozy, I tend to like the Bull and Bush with it’s liberal pouring policies and healthy cuisine. Non-boozy? I’ve gotten rather attached to the sweet potato waffles at Hot Cakes, and I love their signature Cajun hot sauce for eggs. Also, they serve Kaladi coffee. If you’re not gonna get loaded, you might as well be drinking the best coffee.
2. The living room and balcony would probably win out in terms of frequency. As far as bars go, I’m going to have to go with The Thin Man at Race and 17th. It’s like entering a cocktail party where you only know one person, and then succeed to get loaded and wind up knowing half of the room. It’s a fun joint, but no place for the faint-of-liver.
3. Abstinence and exercise. Nothing like an hour on the elliptical to remind you that moderation is important. Not that moderation and I have ever met mind you, but I understand it’s important (a lot like Obama).
4. The contents of our fridge are unabashedly gay when it comes to condiments. . . . from eight kinds of mustards for various applications, to seven different vinegars, to every Asian sauce imaginable (soy, hoisin, nuac cham). Nonetheless, the old standby is as American as a grilled cheese sandwich. Yep, I’m talking about Huy Fong Sriracha from Rosemead, California. As Roy attests, it’s indispensible (I particularly like the rather literal translations on the label, such as hot dog = perros caliente).
5. I’d love to claim that I don’t follow celebrity gossip, but I do get sucked into it from time to time. Right now I’m obsessed with Angelina, and I can’t wait to see what kind of Elephant Man-style freak show evolves around Susan Boyle.
1) On the patio of a tropical beach hotel overlooking the gentle surf of the Pacific ocean.
2)It has been a while but my basement seems to work ok and I don’t have to worry about getting thrown out or a ride home.
3)Again my basement doesn’t judge so no forgiveness needed.
4)Ranch
5)Yes I do and I pay even closer attention if she is hot!
Where is your favorite place to eat breakfast.
I don’t like breakfast. I don’t even like the question. Just the very mention of mornings frankly angers me. I will tell you this, it would involve bacon.
What is your favorite place to get stinkin’ drunk
besides safe at home > My brothers bar. One of America’s most famous and old and literary bars. Yet, you have to know where it is. It has no signs of any kind. I know that sounds dramatic, but if you are in… you know. * that picture above. Taken from my blackberry about a month ago for no good reason. Fortunately, I had it sitting there, so it segued quite nicely… don’t you think?
‘t What do you do to ask for forgiveness (see above)
buy flowers, and be sincere about not doing it again. most importantly… not doing it again. I have been married for 12 plus years, I am good at this stuff.
What is your absolute, must have on hand condiment?
your mother
Do you follow celebrity gossip? Who gets your attention.
first off, I am above all of this. I don’t participate in your bullshit bourgeois patriarchal celebrity culture. Second, I never miss TMZ and I read the enquirer every week in the bath. Yeah, I know. I suck. On an unrelated note, doesn’t Harvey look great for being 58? Seriously, it’s kinda creepy how old he is. Mostly, I wonder why Woody Harrelson goes apeshit around all paparazzi. Isn’t weed supposed to mellow you out?
I’m a lawyer!
1. i enjoy racine’s, annie’s, lucille’s…brunch at dazzle is on my list to try next.
2. sage’s front porch for ‘in’…somewhere with a nice patio for ‘out’.
3. myself. a lot.
4. Sriracha (i’m even a “fan” on facebook)
5. i heart ‘the soup’ and sometimes am caught on thesuperficial.com
1.) If not the Jammie in the Bahamas, then the Daily Bread in Montrose, Colorado. Serious huevos. But the Jammie is the best if you like your eggs mostly raw, your morning cocktails strong and the enticing smell of sex on the beach–all before 8:00 in the morning. Yummy.
2.) Casey’s Irish Pub, of course, right here in my very own Inn! But if not here, then Nine Fine Irishman in Vegas, the Irish pub the Field in San Diego, the St. James brewery in Dublin, and then back at the Jammie in the Bahamas with breakfast at seven in the morning.
3.) As Tony said, it involves Ketsup and, as King Lono said, your mother.
4.) Ketsup and your mother–as long as King Lono and Tony are there. If they’re not, then it’s always Coleman’s Mustard with numerous spankings.
5.) Yes. Anything involving celebrities, nudity, Ketsup and your mother and King Lono (he’s a lawyer!).
