Things that made me smile this week

1. Spending the day on Saturday walking from flea market to flea market, going to the Italian Market Festival, and wandering down to South Philly.

2. Seeing (but not buying) an old board game called Ka-Bala.


3. Getting a sweet deal on the TCM Scene It and the Trivial Pursuit Pop Culture DVD games and a couple of the flea markets ($2 and $3 respectively). Now I need to find people willing to play them with me...

4. Gorging myself on kettle corn at the festival

5. Hanging out with the Gay Swim Team at my neighbor's house

6. Finding a great new neighborhood restaurant, Saute, and being treated to a delicious 4 course meal (fried sweetbreads, yum!)

7. Making chicken mango curry sandwiches for dinner with the most delicious mangoes of the year

8. Finding out that many of my favourite TV shows were renewed: Chuck, Dollhouse, Better off Ted, Castle

9 Getting a good deal on my flights this summer. More money for interesting food!

10. Managing to post to my blog even though Facebook and Twitter have pretty much taken over my online social life.
