Here's the Skinny

I have been on the search for colored skinny jeans....with no luck! Found a bunch online, in a plethora of colors, not sure if any will work, but they are fun to look at (and wish for legs like the models wearing them).

Birthday Alarm

We all forget birthdays! It makes ya feel like a pretty crappy friend/relative/spouse when ya do, doesn't it? You can write them on calendars and in planners, there is even a section on facebook, but you will still forget some.  Well I recently received an email from my cousin, asking me to submit my birthday to a Web site. I thought it was weird, but looked into the site. It's called  BIRTHDAYALARM.COM .  Simply sign up, import your contact list from your email domain. Birthday Alarm will send an email to your chosen contacts asking for their birthdays (your friends and family will think its spam, so put a personal note letting them know that it is not). Then you get a reminder email a day or two before each person's birthday. What a great idea! Now if we could only have reminders like that about everything...

Lunch at West Side Local

Today I went to lunch with a great friend of mine who is visiting from out of town. She asked me to take her to a cute place in downtown Kansas City. I was having a hard time coming up with a location until my roommates told me I should take her to West Side Local, which was awesome for me because it is walking distance from my work!

 

This restaurant is definitely a place you want to check out! Emma and I both sat outside on the patio...the weather was beautiful and our arugula salads with salmon were delicious! West Side Local is a restaurant that supports local farmers and businesses...what's better than keeping it local!

Wouldn't this be nice!

You could fit into even the smallest of spaces, unloading would be a breeze, and my dad wouldn't have to park so far away to avoid door dings!
