weekend in food, etc

I would highly recommend Sisters Pizza & Mussels in edgewater (2255 sheridan- across from sloan's lake). They don't have their liquor license yet and the website listed on the menu (www.sisterspizza.com) wasn't active when I checked but they are open & serving up yummy food. We had the mussels potenza with garlicy marinara (there is also a fra diavolo spicy version) and the frutti di mare (chilled calamari with lemon, olive oil, celery, & white wine). On our next trip we will try the seafood pizza w/ clams, mussels, & calamari. We LOVE Clam Pizza @ Protos but it is only available on Fridays. (http://www.protospizza.com) We would dig a 7 day clam pizza choice but the Ceaser at protos will keep us there too. (No Ceaser Salad @ Sisters.)

hollabackgirl: Sisters has the wall color you want in your bathroom. You might need a darker accent wall to get the color to appear more pumpkin & less tangerine.

also this weekend- DHP, craftylolita, & I joined shitsngrins at sandras in glendale (decent food, weak drinks) where I got a chance to use a $25 certificate that I bought online for $5 (50% off the $10 norm). Infochef was the first to share http://www.restaurant.com. Jeepboy's tip is to always google "restaurant.com discount" before purchasing. There are almost always discount codes posted on mousesavers, dealcatcher, or slickdeals. Read the restrictions carefully before you buy but still a good way to try new local joints & save some $$ too.

Etc...
A really great coupon that expires on Feb 4th. 40% off @ cost plus. good on furniture!
