Home Field Advantage

Just the other day, Tommy and I went to the NY Mets game verse San Diego. Little did we know we were in store for a great game. The first inning the Mets quickly let up one run. By the 7th inning Jose Reyes hit what seemed to be a home run however it had to be reviewed by the umpires. This took several minutes but luckily they determined that it WAS a homerun which tied the game up 1-1. The game went into 11th inning when Ike Davis (my new fave player!) blasted a home run and brought the Mets home, ending the game 2-1. As of Tuesday night the Mets have a home field record of 23-9, woo!

Only By the Night

Last night, my boyfriend Tommy and I went to see Kings of Leon in concert. It was such a last minute decision to go but we figured it would be a good time. It was both an outdoor and indoor event. Although, we were worried because there were torando warnings throughout the day but luckily we had indoor seats and they were SO much better than we thought! KOL came out about around 9pm to red fog and an abundant amount of white, green and red stage lights. I was thrilled because not only did they put on a great show but also played a few of my personal favorites, "Taper Jean Girl," "The Bucket," "Milk" and "Crawl." The band only played for about an hour and 20 minutes because the lead singer, Caleb Followill was complaining about a sore throat, so many people were bummed about that. However, I found out via Twitter that KOL just postponed their concert for tomorrow because Caleb apparently has a throat infection and doctors have advised him to take two or three days off. Let's see if they make it to Bonnaroo!

Rainbow Sprinkles

When I was younger I always looked forward to having a scoop of vanilla bean ice cream with rainbow sprinkles after dinner. Often, I had to ask my parents how many more bites of vegetables or meat I needed to have to guarantee this after dinner dessert. Tonight was the first time in a while since I had this simple yet delicious treat. It tasted just as good as it did when I was younger, maybe better!
