Hi, all! I hope you’re having a wonderful Friday night!
I can’t believe that the evening is just about over! Time flies when you’re having fun!
So, look what I found buried in our kitchen cabinet:

How could I forget about this delicious bottle of dipping oil?!

Obviously, this fancy-schmancy Parmesan Garlic Dipping Oil with Capers went perfectly with a leftover baguette.

Mal and I snacked on bread + olive oil before heading out to meet friends for an art show and dinner. I ate at least 5 or 6 pieces of French bread dipped into olive oil. Holy yum!

Murphy also had a little snack: a mini peanut butter cup from Maggie’s Dog House in Hingham. How adorable are these dog treats?! Maggie’s has an entire case full of yummy-looking goodies for pups.

Of course, Murphy was VERY excited about the peanut butter cup. He has the worst pug peanut butter addiction ever!

I… You… We… Robot!
Tonight, Mal and I attended an art show, called “I…You…We…ROBOT: A Visual Homage To Our Inner Geek!” It was a group exhibition that featured over 70 artists– one of which was our friend, Jon.

The event was held at Space 242, a funky loft-type venue in the South End… and it was totally PACKED!!!


When Mal and I arrived, there was a huge line of people waiting to get in.

Who knew robots were so popular!?!



I liked Jon’s piece the best!

Dinner
After the art show, a big group of us headed to dinner at MJ O’Connor’s, an Irish pub on the edge of the South End.
Our table started with a round of drinks, so I ordered a dirty vodka martini with olives.




For dinner, I ordered the Irish Stout Onion Soup, which was basically your usual French onion soup, but made with Guinness. It was awesome!

French onion soup was the perfect comfort food for a freezing cold winter night!

Cheers to the artist!


I have an early morning planned tomorrow, so I’m hitting the hay right away.
I’m a poet and I didn’t even know it!
Ok, I’m done.
Good night!

Oh yum, love French Onion Soup.. especially the cheesy bread on top!
And those dog treats are TOO cute!
I swear you have the coolest life, Tina! I almost thought that dog treat was for humans
I bet Murph appreciated the cute little paws on those guys.
I love your friend’s painting! What a cool show!
I love French Onion Soup! And this one looks absolutely amazing.
Looks like a great event!! I can’t believe that a bowl of soup and cheese was enough for dinner…
Sounds like such a fun night! I wish I lived in Boston, or a big city to have great things to do every night. Plus I LOVE the look of that soup! Holy yum!
is it wrong that i want to eat the dog treats? I actually thought they were for human consumption for a minute.
I’m jealous of Murphy!
haha I was thinking the same thing — those dog treats look delicous.
As does that delicious bottle of olive oil. Bread and EVOO is always impossible for me to pass up.
LOVE Southie – have you tried the pizza shop on Broadway next to Store 24? They always have unintentionally funny signs out front, advertising their “Chicken Sandwish” and such. If you haven’t tried their pizza, you should! It’s soooo good!
Murphy’s treats look delish! So does your soup! French onion is always a good idea in my opinion!
Sounds like a super fun night!
OH OH OH! That photo of Murphy and the treat is SO CUTE! The peanut butter cup looks bigger than him!
That exhibit would feed my inner geek. Too bad I’m so far from it.
And french onion soup on a bitter could evening is perfect. So cheesy yummy goodness.
what a coool looking event!
and I say it every time but I love murphy and his awesome face
That exhibit sounds so unique! What a perfect Friday night.
And that dipping oil looks fantastic!
I’m so envious of your life!! I just showed my husband where you went tonight and he wants to move to wherever you are asap. lol
Now I am craving olives!
I love dipping oils… yumm!! Looks like such a fun night out with the hubs
A big mistake from us in France onion soup, very traditional made it after a night when friends invited too have taken it to warm the heart, then they share at home quietly.
you guys are such a gorgeous couple! i love seeing pictures of y’all out and about
the exhibit looks good, as does that guiness soup – yum!
Those robots are too funny looking, I love them! What a cool exhibition
I’ve never had French Onion soup..looks good tho!
Have a good sleep
I love French onion soup, I bet it’s tasty with beer!
The leftover baguette with the dipping oil looks right up my alley. Bread <3

ARGG I would have gone to that event if I didn’t have class at 8 AM today and wasn’t behind on school work! I’ll have to send my friend who was in it this link – it looked like fun!
This is a weird question lol…but…did you unwrap that dog treat for Mal before you gave it to him?
oh WOW I meant Murphy!! Sorry!
Those peanut butter cups are so cute!
Yum, French Onion soup made with Guinness. That has to be good.
That soup sounds awesome! Love the dog treats. I wish there was somewhere near me I could buy really cute dog treats.
Great night!!
