mm mm good!

Good evening kittens! I hope you all enjoyed your weekend doing something fabulous. I went to Columbus' fabulous Jazz and Rib fest with my best gal pal Kristy for freebies, jazz and most importantly yummy, delicious, finger-licking good ribs! This was my first venture out in public in a week and a half after a nasty fight with a kick ass sinus infection that really did kick my ass. I was really sick for over two weeks. Down for the count. All I did was sleep, blow my nose, cough, and nurse wicked bad sinus pressure. I went to the doctor; he sticks that little viewer thingy in my nose then tells me it's not pretty up there. Thanks captain obvious. Thank you for validating my being horribly, uncomfortably sick. And thank you for the round of antibiotics that helped me kick the infection.
So finally on Saturday I felt like a normal human being again and wanted to rejoin society and venture out into the world. Kristy was begging to see me since it had been three weeks since her wedding and we had had no girl time together since I had been sick since I came home from her wedding. (Airborne people. Seriously. I didn't take it before I got on the plane and should have. Big MISTAKE not taking it. Huge. No Matter how vile I think it tastes.) Anyway, out to the Jazz and Ribfest we went. First to hit up the freebie booths cause really, who doesn't love some good freebies. We got several bags of the new Kraft Homestyle mac and cheese and I am a fat girl who LOVES, I mean LOVES me some mac and cheese. We picked up some great spice rubs, some other junk then it was on to the ribs. Again, I'm a fat kid who loves me some good food. And good food is what I got. I picked up this platter that had ribs, beef brisket, pulled pork, cornbread, baked beans, and coleslaw. The girl handed me this box and I 'bout dropped the damn thing. It. Was. Heavy. Heavier than I expected. It was a box full of smoked barbecue happiness. I slathered it with both hot and smoky sweet sauce, then Kristy and I scoped out a bench, sat down, and tucked in to some meaty goodness. I was a happy fat kid when it was all said and done. We people watched, then walked back to the car where I unbuttoned the top button of my shorts for the ride home. It was that good.
