Thank you Perez


Some guys really are a dime a dozen!  So reassuring. Ladies, know any guys that answered these questions? Fit into these percentages? :)

I definitely chuckled and knodded (or shook my head, depending) at a few.

That was a HOOT (yeah, I went that corny with it)

This was my first year going to Hoot on the Hill at Colonial Downs (hosted by the Virginia Ski Club and partially sponsored by Hooter’s and K-95).  I didn’t really know what to expect going into it, and after this experience all I have to say is- unless you like cornhole and drinking in public, it ain’t much. 
It was fun, don’t get me wrong.  If you have enough good people, food, and alcohol around you, you’ll be good to go.  But you can get that a lot of places.  The horses were a little extra excitement, but they mostly kept to the inner tracks for most races, and a lot of people weren’t on the rail so you weren’t even that close when you were watching.
So all that being said, my experience was pretty fun!  There were 10 of us in our group, and our plot had plenty of room for us.  We had a tent, little picnic table, bunch of chairs, coolers, blankets, booze, and bodies!  We didn’t even have a cornhole set with us and we still had a blast.  I guess the girl fight in front of us didn’t hurt. Plus two of our friends entered the hot wing eating contest (or maybe one more jumped in after she found the wings were boneless). They may not have won, but they got Hooters shirts! Lol

So if you’re looking for a more relaxed, watered down version of Strawberry Hill, this event is perfect for you.  Or even if you’re just looking to enjoy some nice weather with a little drinking in public with a few of your friends, I guess it’s worth the $20.  Couldn’t hurt right? At least it didn’t for me.

So much security...for 2 chicks?
I <3 Hooters (the sticker said so)


Yet Another Hadad’s Party!

On June 9th, Rumors Boutique and the crazy kids known as Bitch City Crew threw another fun and eventful shindig out at Hadad’s Lake.  With about 14 kegs, 30 pizzas, and DJ Cobra Krames being “too fucking loud”, everyone had enough fuel to keep them energized for the day (which started at 11:30 for some and lasted into the evening).

Despite an early warning from Rumor’s co-owner Casey Longyear that the police were on their way and would be I.D.-ing everyone in attendance, the 5-0 never showed and (presumably legal) fun was had by all!

See for yourself:








Didn't really have too much to write about this one.  I mean, there was beer, pizza, and music - can you guess what happened next? :)

Queso Critic

Best Queso In Richmond (and kind of the surrounding area)

1.       El Caporal
-I’ve thought to myself every time I’ve eaten there “OK, this HAS to be the best queso ever”.  And so it was written.
2.       Casa Grande
-This is a veeerrrrry close 2nd….I mean, it’s the 2nd listed #1 best queso
J lol
3.       Republic
-Believe it or not, for a non-Mexican designated restaurant, their queso is DAMN good
4.       El Paso
-They could tie with Casa really, but I think Republic beats them bc of their non-Mexican restaurant designation.  It’s still damn good queso.
5.       Nacho Mama’s
-It’s a meal in itself.  A delicious meal!
6.       Mexico
-C’mon, if you’re just straight rocking the country’s name, you gotta step up the queso.
7.       La Casita
-Pretty good, but a little blander than the restaurants over in the West End.
8.       Plaza Azteca
-For a pricier Mexican restaurant, I expected more.
9.       Baja
-I know I eat it every week, but even when I put stuff salsa or sausage in it, it’s still….yeah
10.   Legend’s
-….Just don’t get it. It’s yellow for god’s sake.
