It was actually fun, we talked to people we probably wouldn't normally talk to outside of an insane asylum, smelled rank liquor breath and enjoyed the other thrills only public transportation can offer. We were also informed by an enthusiastic homeless looking gentleman of pending economic policy which we both found very interesting. <div><br /></div><div>Our only stop (Central/Roosevelt) was the <a href="http://fair-trade-cafe.com/">fair trade cafe</a>. There I enjoyed one of the best bran muffins ever and the job of constantly pleading for Emma to "stop touching" I finally relented and bought her one of the super cute and socially responsible little cars she was playing with and it's a good thing because by the end of the visit it was broken. I really liked the place, or at least what I was able to absorb of it with my attentions being constantly diverted to a potential disaster every 2 minutes- next time I'm coming alone or with other adults. Bottom line, grab a friend get on the light rail and stop here for a delish lunch and coffee or tea.

Fortunately for Jenn and I, Danielle (from <a href="http://sweetpeaaz.com/">Sweet Pea Bakery</a>) embraced the nerd within and joined us for a photo-op on the random Vespa inside of <a href="http://www.bomberoswinebar.com/">Bomberos</a>. <div><div><br /></div><div>The food at Bomberos is awesome! My favorite was the tapenade bruschetta. The decor is really cool and where else can you find a 10' x 15' mirror leaning against the wall while you stuff your face? I couldn't help but check to see if I had olives in my teeth during dinner. <img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5281517569259292370" style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; WIDTH: 375px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 400px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgAPK3kIZI-H-nB2cuznNWe3TJHFg2iJcFqm5pMj2W7mRlvi3r5YreT4m-hY7ToSSku0HYpDhRWU8Ns8g7f_ZtAWiMT8evNOj-3kJBOapIwHXLb2IJSCqX7fYOXvAEdwkrXzy8CoH7Q_MR0/s400/20081218_0004.jpg" border="0" /></div><div></div></div>2 Nerds In Phoenixhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06413792970730853370noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2477844697695621377.post-64647110237720105932008-12-18T16:03:00.000-07:002008-12-18T16:11:11.379-07:00creative...together!<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjXH6hdyik9CgLl_zNDzy69gIaeJYYzFV2qRvuB9tDgCW1eL3wnXoFsdOwxeNNE43tJz2rSA4kk64U47yAvufvFe0kh1MECOSc7lV9EV8Ojc5hGmK8oI_jS7lU136XAsYzjiF40Y6UeKhTu/s1600-h/20081210_0372.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 255px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjXH6hdyik9CgLl_zNDzy69gIaeJYYzFV2qRvuB9tDgCW1eL3wnXoFsdOwxeNNE43tJz2rSA4kk64U47yAvufvFe0kh1MECOSc7lV9EV8Ojc5hGmK8oI_jS7lU136XAsYzjiF40Y6UeKhTu/s400/20081210_0372.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5281271426305846434" /></a><br />YESSSSSSSSSSSS!

I think Kym and I have bonded in our recognition of how silly or weird we can sometimes be and how freeing it is to just stop posing for two seconds and let your gut hang out, look like an idiot or say something really dorky out loud. We are all about cultivating friendships that allow you to be you.
