This is my friend, Kim, aka Bambi (when we are in Chicago), and TODAY is her birthday. Kim is a faithful reader of SistersDish. Kim is my friend, and as she wrote in response to my b-day email to her today, "that makes me laugh until my sides hurt." She and Rich (her soon to be General hubby) took Chris into their home every single night for dinner when he was at Fort Knox and I was working in Chicago during our second year of marriage! We were INSTANT friends when we met...have been ever since and have enjoyed many great weekends in Chicago in the fall...we are completely delinquent in that tradition, but will resume when the economy does!Kim, just took a quick gander at our "Chicago" book...my gift to you today is some quotes that hopefully will get your sides hurting today!!! Have a great day! love, Heidi
"They say if you love something, set it free or burn it down" - Chris
Most common heard phrase of the weekend, "I'm sorry, we're all out of that today." As in potatoes, walleye...
"If you could see anyone in concert, who would it be?" Chris - "AC/DC" Rich - "Barry Manilow"
"Are you sure he's not gay?" - Heidi
"Do you know how to make a sea breeze?" ah, no. "ok, just make it pink" - Heidi
"Is this a lesbian hotel?" - Kim
"We're the only two women in Chicago wearing color." - Heidi
"Wire baskets with wheels are the vehicle of choice for the homeless in Chicago and mothers from Madison, WI" - one of us
"Japanese businessmen think we're hot!" - Kim
"There's a potato famine in the midwest" - Rich
"There is also a walleye shortage" - Chris
"If we get divorced, who gets Chris and Heidi?" - Rich
"There's a BIG difference between a malt and a milkshake!" - Chris
Burgers DO come topped with ribs.
"It IS possible for Heidi to fall asleep anywhere - even when surrounded by 500 clapping/laughing people." - Kim
It's impossible to order a margarita or a grasshopper in Chicago due to the "Great Blender Shortage of 2007."
"Even when Chris says he doesn't want ice cream, he really wants to scoops of chocolate!"
BWOTY!!!!!
