pinkberry

So this summer I went to LA and visited Kendall for a week. On this trip I was introduced to pinkberry. Pinkberry, if you don't know, is a yogurt(like) frozen dessert topped with, uh, toppings. Most of the toppings are fruits, but you can also get crushed up Oreos, carob chips, or even Cap'n Crunch.

I don't want to make this sound better than it is (its not like Paula Deen's banana pudding) but it is actually very good. It was so good that I made Kendall take me there maybe 4 or 5 times over the 8 days I was there.

And now pinkberry is expanding (I guess) because they have lit upon the concrete shores of Manhattan. Most locations in New York and downtown in the hipper areas of the city. One location just happens to be about 4 blocks from my office. You can head over to our food blog http://diaryoffood.blogspot.com to see just how many times I've been there since I discovered its existence last night, and to keep track of how many times I visit in the future.

Yeah, that's it.

The Most Annoying Podcast Ever

No, not last week's show! Our new episode, entitled "The Most Annoying Podcast Ever," is now available! This week we discuss all those things that get under your skin. Like:

slow drivers
fur coats
Paris Hilton
people who write in all lower-case letters
pointing to your wrist instead of asking for the time
gas prices
ourselves

and MORE!

we also dip into the mailbag and offer Shakespearian quotations! All for free, funded by our love for our listeners.

Get your eFix, or is it iFix? of Cliff and Kendall with this week's episode!

Also, thanks for voting in our poll! There are only a few days left to tell us what your new year's resolution is! (Or have you already broken it?)

dear god, why did you make mondays?

My, how the tables have turned! It was only a few months ago that I would get a call from Kendall as he was driving home from work, and he would ask "so what did you do today?"

I would reply, "well, I woke up around 1:30 and went to the library where I checked out some DVDs and then I watched one of those DVDs and then I laid here in the heat (it was summer in New York without air conditioning) and the I ate some stuff and then you called."

This is because I was unemployed. Horribly, torturously, tediously, terrifyingly unemployed.



Now the roles have been reversed. I have a job (not a career, there's a big difference) and Kendall's at home everyday. He's got a career, but momentarily no job.

It happens. 'It' being 'life' and 'shit.'

But that brings me to now, MONDAY. Typically, this non-career-job I have is the epitome of easy. And today is no different, except for the fact that every 'easy' task I've undertaken has been an ordeal not unlike old whats-his-face pushing that boulder up Mt.-whaddyacallit.

I suppose without Mondays, Fridays wouldn't seem as sweet. That's what Kendall would say. Although I know that when out of work, everyday seems like every other day and Mondays, Fridays, its all the same. I don't miss not working. Not in the least. But sleeping until 2 in the afternoon on a Wednesday, now that gives me a reason to look forward to retirement.

first let me say that right now, as i write this i am watching season 3 of 'Lost' on dvd. and i hate the others. HATE THEM. want them to die. painful and horrible deaths. i won't say too much, because at the end of the upcoming season of the show Kendall and i are going to do an episode devoted to the castaways.

ANYWAY

below is the trailer for my favorite movie of last year "Year of the Dog."



have a great weekend everyone and love yourselves!

***Also in a personal post script, we would like to (be the first to??) point out that Presidential Candidate Huckabee is evil. Pure evil. He is the answer to those who say "no one could be worse than Bush." Oh really?

New episode coming soon!

Hey everyone,

We just wanted to drop a line that we started a new episode last night! This week's show is all about wrapping up 2007 in a neat little package. What are your fondest memories of the past year? Are you like us and have very few memories at all?

Make sure to tune in later this week when the podcast is released and relive all the glory of the past year.

Now that 2007 is in year heaven, we must move on to that futuristic sounding year 2008! Its so round and pretty. What will happen? Will this be the year we finally make contact with extra terrestrials? Will Cliff and Kendall win some sort of podcast award? Do they even give out podcast awards? Will Cliff and Kendall have to create podcast awards just so they can bestow one upon themselves?

Imagine the possibilities.
