July 18 StixWe ate Japanese last night and it was delicious. I had scallops and chicken and Dennis got scallops and steak. We ate at Stix which is one of those places where you sit at a table for 10 surrounding the chef. The chef is trained in all kinds of antics and tries to keep the diners laughing. We sat with two groups of 4. The group to our left was 2 couples in their thirties. They had a lot to talk about and did not acknowledge anyone else at the table really. The group to our right was a birthday party and these girls were in a good mood. Of course, since they seemed to all be single girls they got the most attention and it was hilarious. As part of the routine, the chef always tosses some shrimp to each diner and you are SUPPOSE to catch it in your mouth. Somehow.....(yeah, like we don't really know HOW it could happen...) the chef kept missing their mouths and expertly dropping it right down their cleavage! Many giggles later (after he helpfully suggested he would retreive it for them), he proceeded to toss to the men at the table. He made two of them look silly and then threw one to Dennis. While Dennis was chewing, he threw another, and then another, and then.....another. D finally got him stopped so he could chew and swallow before he choked. He then turned to me. While he prepared his windup, I deftly pulled the front of my high-necked shirt away from my body to give him a better shot. After he finished laughing, he tossed it to my mouth. :) July 14 I love being a grandma! They keep telling me to decide what I want to be called... and yet they don't like what I choose! My grand-niece calls me Ninny so I thought that would be good to go with. Of course I know about the stigmas that go with that word... but I don't care. I know I'm smart and I know I'm not a boob, so if my niece names me that ... its as good as ANY. I also tried Granny. Thats what I called my grandmama, well, sometimes I called her grandmama! But that got laughs too. Oh well. Maybe Chloe will decide and I won't have to. ![]() ![]() |
