Runs with knives!
Tonight, we took a short break from left-overs to quickly dine together at Frisch’s. Wendy had a turkey wrap and I had a cheeseburger & some of their great onion rings. After dinner, Wendy headed down to the theater for a rehearsal of IRMA VEP…
Wendy had rehearsal for IRMA VEP at Falcon Theater tonight, so I was on my own for dinner. That meant leftovers! Yup, the never-ending stream of stuffed, roasted pork from our dinner party continues. I ate that along with some cottage cheese and potato chips.…
Since Wendy is working hard on the backstage aspects of IRMA VEP at Falcon Theater which opens this weekend, I was on my own this evening for dinner. I decided to stay at home and work on a few projects I’ve got going on, so it was a simple dinner of Chef Boyardee‘s Mini Bites Ravioli with Mini-Meatballs.

Tonight was the opening of THE MYSTERY OF IRMA VEP at Falcon Theater. My friend Danny & I both auditioned for the show but were not cast. We decided to attend the show together to revel in the lack of work we had to do to see it mounted, and decided to have dinner together beforehand.
We met at PEPPER POD, a restaurant just up the street from the theater. PEPPER POD is described as “no-frills family-style dining” in this review. I might argue that it is ‘family-style’ because the restaurant permits smoking inside (and boy do the patrons smoke!), but that’s nit-picking.
The food is hearty and reasonably tasty. I got a salsbury steak dinner with mashed potatoes and cottage cheese — food right out of my latchkey childhood, and Danny enjoyed his Ham & Cheese Omlette very much. You leave the restaurant smelling of smoke, but satisfied and with some change in your pocket.
Wendy is tired. She’s been working her job, which is no picnic, and working on IRMA VEP at Falcon Theater for the last 7-8 evenings straight. This morning, she slept in while I went to a morning rehearsal for the show I am directing, DINNER WITH…
