gingerfoxxx does lafayette indiana


now obviously lafayette is a town that cannot be done alone. with a full posse in tow (posse, you know who you are!) we stormed lafayette and explored its culture, people, and bar specials.

We actually started the night with an AMAZING sushi dinner that gingerfoxxx prepared! Perhaps i am more domestic than previously thought?

After dinner, we stormed downtown Lafayette and started the night off at Black Sparrow. In the past, black sparrow has been hit or miss, often being over run with faux beatniks and pretentious suburbanite hipster. However Saturday, it redeemed itself ten-fold! not only did they serve me the largest dirty martini i have ever experienced, they had a really great jazz band playing! hooray for culture! and vodka!

We then moved on to search for a quieter place that would allow conversation and ended up at spurlocks. While slightly generic, they actually served fellow ginger jen (henceforth: gingerfly) 36 oz of guiness! sweet f-ing christ thats a lot of guiness!

We ended the night at knickerbocker, enjoying the insights put forth by the 3am drunk crowd. and running into way too many people in such a compromised state!

I had such a great time! I think jen was a little worse for the wear, but everyone else seemed pleased. We wound up sleeping in extra late, and then hitting my favvvvv dive spot sunrise for breakfast!

Dont worry though, Chicago, your still the city for meeee!


* side note: i put jen to sleep without checking her mouth and allowed her to pass out with gum in her mouth. she could have choked! or even worse, gotten gum in her lovely ginger hair! thank god i am not responsible for kids!

oh, and you also cannot forget it's all ginger-fun and games until someone gets poked in the eye with a potato.
