Andrew and the Open Mic
Monday nights in Conshohocken just got a little more diverse. Beginning this week, The Conshohocken Cafe is hosting an open mic every Monday night from 7-9. The first event was well attended (I mean obviously, we were there!) and well performed. If you’ve been to the Cafe, you’ve certainly met Andrew, who performed much of this first evening in a combination of music and (un)intentional comedy. There was also a brave young lady from Plymouth … Read entire article »

Roof Top Taco Truck a Whole Foods Experience
It’s on a roof. It’s from a truck. But these are not your typical tacos or even food you might expect when pulling into a mall… or even a market. Quite simply, the tacos from Plymouth Meetings Whole Foods Market’s new rooftop Blue Route Taco Truck are amazing. The menu boasts five varieties of freshly made tacos described as combining the best of Penn campus and West Coast flair: Carne Asada with Queso Fresca, Pork Carnitas … Read entire article »

Atlantic City and the Feast
The day started with a brownie bribe as I once again arrived ready to go on our road trip several cups of coffee down, drinking a large orange juice and packing one bottle of coconut water, a diet Dr. Pepper and a 32 ounce Nalgene of water. There was no doubt that my petite bladder would not make the hour drive to Atlantic City. The night before – OR (How we almost didn’t make it to … Read entire article »

That One Night in Olde City
Last Friday, Nikki and I met up with one of her friends in Olde City for dinner. We started the evening in a cool restaurant and ended it in the tattoo parlor… Hm, yes… Danielle makes it all so succinct, leaving out the brazenly inappropriate girl talk (which I suppose can be assumed) and the disturbingly disproportionate number of hipster’s all about. Then there is the begging of the question: “tattoo parlor?” Sadly, there was no … Read entire article »

In The Beginning – The MadCap Road Trip (Part 4)
My abductor had previously showed me the confectionery options available to me via the bakery’s website. She had not incorrectly noted that I would want to make away with a Cosmopolitan cupcake. I will admit, once the impressive and beautiful display case was directly in front of me, my resolve weakened slightly. But, since a cosmo cupcake is not something found everyday, and because the bakery lists the caloric count at around 500 calories each, … Read entire article »

In The Beginning – The MadCap Road Trip (Part 3)
Back on the highway headed toward Manhattan we took the exit that the phone suggested but it seemed to have missed a turn in its direction, and we ended up heading toward downtown rather than uptown. With only one more u-turn, we managed to make it to the proper 189th Street. Cruising a few blocks, I found what I felt to be a perfectly acceptable and prime parking … Read entire article »

In The Beginning – The MadCap Road Trip (Part 2)
Sunday morning…my alarm went off promptly at 5 a.m. as alarms will do when programmed thusly.(Nikki’s alarm went off. I, DanielleJ, do not require alarms) I, however, was up somewhere closer to 5:12 as girls who don’t go to bed until 1 will do. Half-naked stumbling to the living room ensured that the coffee maker was, in fact, making coffee. After feeding what looked to be half-starved felines, I fought every urge to crawl back … Read entire article »

Saturday on the Mainline…White Dog Cafe, PBandU, TJ Maxx, and Borders
…Or, how Nikki messed up the date of a tasting event that resulted in the best Tweet of all time… The night ended thusly: DanielleJPhilly: “Everybody is screwed because I can’t see to drive at night” – @prowess64 as she speeds down Lancaster Ave. #SaveMe!! But it began: Prowess64: Hm I wonder if @DanielleJPhilly will allow me to drive? Muwhahaha! Having completely misread my invite to a tasting event, I picked up DanielleJ at the appointed time and we headed … Read entire article »

One of us had a healthy salad and one of us did not.
The best part of our meal was the salad course. The rest of dinner is not worth a mention. “Never again”, she said. I agreed. … Read entire article »
