Being A Badass Manatee.

I admire people who take time to do their jobs well. Whether it’s a doorperson, or cop, or red mango raspberry placer. The last one is really the most important. If you are a fro-yo fan you know just how wiley those bitches can be. They’ll fall right the hell off of your yogurt. Not my berries. Oh no, I had the artistic berry placer and they all stayed.

Can I get an amen?

Why can’t EVERYONE give a damn about their jobs? Like my bodega coffee guy who always spills my coffee, or my gym front desk lady who always calls me “Mrs Tam”??

A: It’s TAN! With an N!!

B: Have Mercy, I’ve told you 16k times to call me “Cat” or just “Mega Awesome” but you seem to LOVE seeing me flinch at “mrs tam”. Two can play at that game, Hally.

My salad guy today was an artist, but seemed to lack the necessary equipment. Namely, a salad plate big enough.

A gentle breeze and this was taking a tumble.

After I got some worky work done, we headed to the outlet mall, because we’re nuts, and we figured it’d be far less crowded if it is below freezing. We were right! We were the Kings of Tanger. It’s like being the Kings of Leon, only far less more lame.

Don’t worry, the kids were EXTRA toasty.

Hey Mom! Look at me! I can vandalize plants!!

(to be fair, he’s wearing his Darth Vader hat, and feels the need to up the badass quotient. Give them the tools, people.)

Can I just tell you that gray skinny jeans do NOT look so skinny in the mirror when the stabbing ladybeast is afoot? I looked like whatever whale is gray-or a manatee, but not so gentle; because as I said, the stabbing ladybeast is afoot.

Either way, we all got some exercise in cold enough weather that I could convince myself I was burning more calories just for being outside. It’s totally untrue, but I once convinced myself for a whole decade that smoking was totally NOT gross. It’s an art, much like making salads, but with well fitting plates.

Now if you’ll excuse me, I have to go write, cook, and shoot a recipe for you people!! Ok, fine, Imma gonna eat it, but I am only doing it for you. I promise.

Do you like outlet shopping in the cold? It’s kinda my fave.

Score any good post-Christmas deals?

-holla! Got a puffer coat for practically a puff of air!
