Monday Check-In

Good morning! What a beautiful, warm weekend it was here in the city. Let’s check in.

As you can see from the photo above, some pals and I went out for beer and barbecue at Mighty Quinn’s and ordered to share among five of us: a pound of brisket, a pound of pulled pork, a smoked sausage, a brontosaurus rib, a serving of burnt ends, and some french fries, coleslaw, a bunch of pickled things, and sweet potato casserole for desert. With a pint of beer, my share was $32. Afterwards, we went to a bar where I spent an additional $14. I ended up postponing brunch the next day and ran errands instead ($12 for cleaning supplies, and $10 for laundry), and then spent $59.87 for groceries. My estimate was 130-ish and I spent 127.87.

How did your weekend go?

Programming note: Meaghan is somewhere warm for most of this week, so our pal Ester Bloom is guest-editing.
