Eggs anyone?

Greetings!

It has been a busy and exciting week! Here are some highlights:
  • Happy Hour at Fat Dragon. This was our first HH at Fat Dragon, and we had a fantastic time! The food and drink specials were great- $2 off of apps, $3.50 rail drinks (their rails were not crap liquor- decent stuff), $2 off drafts, and $5 wine by the glass selection. We will definitely be going back- we give 10 martinis- a perfect score!
  • Three Sheets to the Wind put on a great show at the National on Friday!  They are always a blast to watch, and the crowd was clearly having an awesome time. We can't wait until their next show!
    It was a smooth time had by all.
  • Buffalo Deviled Eggs? Yes, please!
  • Easter for both us of had last minute changes in plans. The weather was not stellar in Richmond- so neither of us made it to Monument Ave for Easter on Parade. Due to unforeseen circumstances, both our Easter dinner plans were cancelled, leaving us both with dozens of boiled eggs, ready to be deviled. We are trying to be creative in how to use these eggs: Egg salad and several twists on deviling have been consumed in the last few days by us and our husbands. Check out our Pinterest page for some ideas!
April is already in full swing with many happenings around town. The Richmond Flying Squirrels have their opening game on April 4th, complete with fireworks after the show. Spring break is happening for most schools this week, so the museums and parks have plenty going on for families. We are about to find out if all our training has paid off for the upcoming running races this month. Everyone in town seems to be training for something- the Monument Ave 10k, Color Me Rad, Hardywood 4miler...and many more! Search for more races here. We also learned today that one of our favorite radio programs, Prairie Home Companion, will be coming to Maymont this summer as part of the Groovin' concert series! Tickets go on sale next week.

Since many of us are hitting the pavement, either in running shoes or sandals, here's a friendly reminder for the gals out there: It's time for a pedi! Whether you do one at home or hit the salon, it is that time of year to make your toes and feet look great. Guys, you may want to consider it too.

Kate and her hubby are planning a spring yard sale for the weekend and are looking forward to the extra space in the basement! Whatever money is made will be going toward outdoor improvement projects. If you're on the Northside of Richmond this Saturday (April 6th, 9-1) come on by and check it out!  The weather is going to be great for a little outdoor shopping. No early birds, but we will be open to a Bloody Mary on the porch with you during the sale!
The sign is the hook to reel in your customers! BUY BUY BUY!!!

Congratulations to our friends Meghan and Travis on the Easter arrival of their little boy! He surprised everyone by coming a few weeks early, but everyone is doing great. We have been over the moon with excitement for this arrival, even if it means Kate has a ton of eggs to eat.

Cheers,

K&H
