I love that there is free entertainment in every direction, at every minute. What’s better is that I can snap a simple picture, post it here and help spread gnome love around the world. (And hopefully make you roll on the floor laughing with me of course.)

The place where the service experience is typically like that of The Soup Nazi, the line is always out the door, and you always leave so full, fat and happy you can’t wait to go back. 

Do yourself a favor if you are ever in Richmond, VA and eat at Mamma Zu. There’s just nothing else like it. It has that dark and dingy joint charm that somehow works. The chalkboard menu is chucked full of the freshest and most de-lish food you could ever want. The white pizza is pretty much to die for, and I still say the cannolis are better at this place than anything I had in Italy. 

The best part is that you can get an appetizer, a couple of pasta dishes, a bottle of wine, dessert and coffee for fifty bucks. 

Oh Mamma Zu, how I love you.

This reminds me. Just a couple weeks ago, I walked past some college kids and gasped with delight when I saw they were using Trapper Keepers. They informed me “Oh yeah, everyone is using them these days, you can buy them a ton of places now.” Hmmm. Maybe I should have moved forward with my idea for t-shirts a few years ago that would have said; I have a Trapper Keeper. (Seems like they’d be quite popular.)

Here are some images that I dare you to try and not laugh at. My 1st Trapper Keeper had a light blue ocean scene with a sweet looking dolphin on it. Between that and rocking my side ponytail almost everyday, I felt like one hot ticket. Maybe I’ll try dig up an old photo to post sometime. Better yet, why don’t you send me a photo of your super sweet Trapper Keepers or Hammer Pants? Oh what fun.

(This post is for you E. Because we share the same ridiculous humor, I know it will make you laugh your a** off for a good half hour at least. Love it. Hows that for a birthday present?!)
