Can You Believe the Year's Half Over?!

 

OMG this year is flying by fast!  It's already time for Christmas in July, and it seems like we just had Christmas!  BTW, the CIJ show is Sunday  the 13th, 3pm at South Beach.  It's invitation only, but if you need one, give Miss G a shout out and she'll see if she can hook you up!

Did you know there are 2 things call Christmas in July? Neither did Miss G, until the other day!  At 7pm at the BRB there is another show called "Miss Alabama's Christmas in July", and it is an open show and performers are welcome.  That's a lot of holiday spirit to pack into one weekend!

Speaking of the BRB, we started the weekend last night with our Krewe Happy Hour there,  then went to check out Anita Bump's new restaurant, Anita's Bar and Grill.  If you've ever been to a Hamburger Mary's then you've seen it before,  but the concept is new and novel for Houston.  Of course, Miss G couldn't resist ordering "Drag Queen Chicken", and Annie had the "GLBT", Anita's version of a BLT. Go there for the drinks and atmosphere.  The food serves one purpose:  to soak up the liquor so you can keep drinking!  And anyone with heart conditions should steer clear:  it's salty and greasy!  Just what you need after a long night of cocktails, but not so much if you're trying to steer clear of the grim reaper!  The place is a hoot, though,  with Anita herself mingling with the patrons and ensuring everyone is entertained while they wait  (and wait!) for their food.  Check it out and leave Miss G a blog comment with your thoughts on the place!

We' re just a week away from the Miss Mint Julep contest!  Make plans now to come see Miss G's step-down and Kaye Sedilla's "Last Salsa",  plus find out who will become Mr., Miss,  and the first Ms. Mint Julep!

TTFN, and stay FABULOUS!
