Rain or shine — this time I nixed having a booth. So if it rains, you’re welcome to hang here with us — it should be a fun day…
I baked some stuff, too. Woot.
Tags: Pigtown FestivalYet another big gap between blog posts — my goodness, you’d think I was busy…or something. Passed out in the gutter doesn’t count, folks. Just sayin’.
Not much is new — I walked down to Harbor East with one of the girls Sunday night to see Pineapple Express. Seriously. Stupid. Yet. Funniest. Movie. Ever. And I had the munchies afterwards. Hmmm. Oh — and we stopped by Taco Fiesta before the movie — hellooooo fish tacos. Mmmm….excellent. Good guacamole, too.
So have you been keeping up with the Baltimore John Watch blog? OMG…photo posts. I’m dying. They’re absolutely brilliant.
So that’s all I have for now — things are going on (kinda good stuff) and all is well.
Tags: Baltimore John Watch, Movies, Pigtown, TacosThis year’s Pigtown festival should be great — it’s September 6th, so please save the date. Lots of food and music…and a great way to meet your neighbors — especially if you’re a new resident. It’s held on Washington Boulevard from the 700 block to the 900 block.

No, I won’t have a booth this year, but I will definitely be open!!
Tags: Pigtown FestivalApparently some people in the neighborhood are tired of being preyed upon by men searching for a good time with a hooker (can’t say I blame the residents…who wants that shit in the neighborhood?) And apparently some of those men are upset that there is now a website devoted to reporting their illegal activities.
I especially chuckled over the “It’s an invasion of our privacy!” argument…oh give me a break. You’re having your [fill in the blank] sucked in an alley for five dollars, and you’re whining about your privacy being invaded? Seriously?
Ah, but what do I know? I’m just a yuppie barista.
Tags: ABC 2 News, Baltimore John Watch, Examiner, Hookers, johns, PigtownWelcome Bmore Sweet to the blogroll. She’s into baking — so it was only logical that I would add her to the list of Blogs I Think Are Important on the right. Mmm…baking…
So I promised someone I would make him a tiramisu, and a quick search turned up a recipe on her blog — it was fate. Karma. Whatever. Good Lord it looks like a lot of work, but I said I would do it…maybe this weekend. We’ll see.
Tags: baking, Baltimore, FoodSorry I haven’t written much lately — I’ve been so busy with work…and life — you know how it is. Another day, another adventure. Another cake that needs to be baked, another crisis that needs to be averted. Yikes. And “yay!” at the same time. I wonder sometimes if life is simply a series of hoops we’re required to jump through…and once in a while we’re allowed to take a detour?
But all is well — for now….knock on wood.
I hear a cake calling — must dash. 
I’m smirking. I wish I could tell you why, but I have a big ol’ smirk on my face.
WOOOOOOOOO HOO! GO TEAM PIGTOWN!

Tags: Main Street, Pigtown, Washington Boulevard…how much it disgusts me to see men driving around the neighborhood, scanning for hookers? Or trying to pick me up as I walk up the boulevard?
AH posted about it today, and I started thinking about all of those women…sitting at home, thinking their idiot husbands are “at the store” or “working late” when they’re actually cruising around our neighborhood looking for a cheap blowjob. And it made me very glad to be single.
And yes, I really did get a mention in the hooker forum. Ick. They think I’m a yuppie. HA HA HA HA HA.
Tags: AH, Hookers, johns, yuppiesSome tidbits and links:
1. JJT finally has dining room chairs. Yes, this is newsworthy. Apparently he only has two, and I will keep you updated as to the status of the other two as information becomes available.
2. I am not closing the cafe. In fact, I hope to stay here until they drag my fat ass out in a pine box. Thanks to the generosity and support of friends and neighbors, I was able to take care of some outstanding issues, and I owe them a party. That will happen before the summer is out, I promise.
3. Smith & Wesson thinks it’s a good idea for women to own pink guns. I think it’s bullshit, frankly, and wouldn’t be caught dead (no pun intended) with one. I’m more partial to this little beauty.
4. Someone thought it would be a good idea to grab me and try to drag me down an alley. Unfortunately, he quickly found just how bad this idea was and at the very least has a fat lip…and perhaps one or two missing teeth. I’m fine and no worse for the wear, although I’m still a little mad about it. I could have broken a heel. Or ripped my jeans. Dammit.
5. I baked a coconut cake for the cafe. Please come in and eat it so I’m not tempted. Thanks.
