Happy Hour with the GQ to History of Rap 4

Last night, I went to my friend Michelle's launch of Happy Hour with the Green Queen.

What I learned last night...

Bosom Buddies was only on for two seasons. I could of sworn in was on for more.

When you help your friend wash a dish, it's cute. Yes, a youngster actually walked in on me washing a dish and said, "Your cleaning, how cute." I didn't wash another dish after that.

Sat between a vegan of nineteen years and a omnivore with a blog. That was fun!

When you ask a vegan of nineteen years what made them take the vegan route. Their answer: "As a vegan of nineteen years, that question gets old". Note to self: don't ask vegans anything they get cranky when they don't eat meat.

I was informed about the The Weston A Price Foundation. Took a quick look. When I have some time I'l have to check out what Weston talking about.

Wine labels and old Cd's make great drink coasters.

American Harvest, an organic vodka made in the US is very good.

Michelle makes the BEST drinks. But I already knew that.

Made it home just in time to catch Justin Timberlake and Jimmy Fallon perform the History of Rap Part 4.
