Radiohead @ Red Rocks

August 28th, 2003

What a night!
The heat was bearing down on us as we walked around Golden, running a few errands before we headed up to the concert. I stopped by the old liquor store to pick up a couple cases of Fat Tire to traffic back to Minnesota, where they will stay in storage while I carefully [...]


Bend It Like Beckham

August 21st, 2003

It’s Burrito Time

August 5th, 2003

Ah… It’s good to be a Rochester-ite these days. I’ve just received some wonderful, wonderful news.
Chipotle is coming to town.
My dining prayers have been answered.
Unsubstantiated (co-worker’s husband talks to a man on the bus who keeps up on this sort of stuff) reports indicate that in the new strip by Target, Chipotle will be moving [...]
