So, went home this weekend with Frankie and Tom and we decided to stop off at the much anticipated "Klondike" in Lakehead for a nite cap. I've said for years I would stop in there at least once for a drink to check it out and we finally did. Its a totally cute and quaint place with lots of old dark wood, dollar bills hanging everywhere with patrons autographs, and a laid back bartender named Don. We had been laughing earlier about my husbands new nickname...Friday Night Frank...given to him by the girls at Atlas Disposal on a rowdy Friday night out a few weeks back. Drinks ordered we were sitting up at the bar when Friday Night Frank got a whif of something and turned to Tom and said "Dude...did you shit your pants?" Tom mistakenly heard his whispers and interpreted it as "Did you just call me Sugarpants?!?!". Of course we were all laughing hysterically (Don included who was listening in with curious intent) and automatically christened Tommy as Sugarpants from now on. Looking around I noticed a sign with the "house" specialty drink. Its a shot made from Hot Cock Bourbon, Apple Pucker, cranberry juice, etc called a "Cock Pucker" and sounded too good to pass up. Since I wasn't driving I ordered one but couldn't bring myself to say "Cock Pucker" to a total stranger. I pointed to the sign and said gimme one of those. This of course, immediately caused Sugarpants and Friday Night Frank to jump in trying everything they could to get me to say the word. I did not but earned the graceful moniker of "Cock Pucker" from here on out. They tried all weekend to get me to say that in front of my mother but I would not...I just can't. There are certain words I will never say in front of madre and that's one of them!
Not much to report on the weight thing this weekend but I was pretty good keeping my portion sizes way down and not overindulging in Momma's good cooking. Though I didn't lose anything this weekend I also didn't ruin any progress by gaining back weight so yeah for me!
Alright folks...Cock Pucker signing out. Rock it!
