waste not want not...

well unless you are in a food fight... which i was. yeppers you heard right i said food fight. in Reno there was a huge tomato fight designated to raise money for cancer research... um, hi... is that not the coolest thing you have EVER heard of? I know, me too. So of coarse "my girrrrls" and I had to join in on the festivities, And of coarse we dressed up; my fav is the RED lipstick... awesome.


Now we may have started out really cute...but about 2 seconds into the fight any curiosity i may have had about what i would look like with red hair and a sunburn subsided. What do ya think, should i go red? No? *sigh* fine you win.

So seein as i didn't want to dump marina sauce in my car we opted to rent a motel for an hour to get cleaned up,( hi, did i mention we were in Reno? totally can rent a motel by the hour....creepy, i know, and so was the place.) So after leaving our mark,( the stench of stewed tomatoes in our wake we decided to grab some grub.... Italian? HECK NO, i think we would have spewed our guts out had we seen, smelled or touched one more tomato...(in fact i may have developed a permanent aversion to tomatoes). We opted for Reno's famous awful awful burgers, they sure are awful big,( so is my arm in this picture), and awful delicious!!! Hence their name... awful awful. thanks for a great night my fellow "saucy tomatoes"!

Wowzers. Looks like fun?! Maybe not...I think I'd opt out...but then again it might be one of those things that I'd have to be dragged to and then once I got in it I LOVED it?! I don't know...did you make your shirts?!
