Thursday Night Recap: January 17

In the midst of this writers strike I've decided to provide all my readers (but mostly my poor self) with a weekly recap of my Thursday nights to prove to all of you (myself) that we (I) don't really need those Thursday night television shows to provide us (me) with a satisfying evening. In the process, hopefully I'll give you some good ideas to plan a cozy night at home.

This last Thursday was a little different than most because I was alone. Brian was out for a happy hour with some of his former coworkers workin' the town in good ol' Minneapolis. Lucky! Knowing this, I purposely cut out one of William's naps to be sure he'd go down with ease right at seven on the dot. Here are the vitals.

Eats: Thimbles with Mushrooms and Artichokes

Dessert: A small dish of chocolate and vanilla mix ice cream. Afterward I savored a few Jolly Ranchers.

Drink: One Finnegans

(Have you ever tried this beer? It tastes great and you can feel good drinking it. And I don't mean you'll feel good because of the alcohol effects. 100% of the profits go to local Twin Cities charities! How's that for a good brew?)

Entertainment: The Nanny Diaries

Truth be told, it was no where near as good as the book but what movie is? It was the perfect flick to watch by myself. Brian would have been bored before the opening credits.

So there you have it. Tune in next week for another exciting Thursday night at the Nash's!
