Order is done - coming UPS Ground - so in the next couple weeks.

I am famous! OK... well for some definition of famous.

Scratch and I grabbed lunch at Blue Ribbon BBQ, one of our favorite Boston area BBQ joints. As we were waiting for our platters, I was collecting the various accoutrements - sauce containers, vinegar, napkins, forks and knives - and one of the chefs behind the counter says "Hey! You're Betty Blaize!". He'd apparently seen Out for Blood and he was a big fan. This the first time I've met someone I didn't know, in street clothes who had seen and liked the show. It was really cool!

I'm not there every week, but I'm enough of a regular that some of the folks there recognize me. They are all like "we didn't know you were a big star!" I said I just started this starlet thing. ;)

Scratch says, dubiously, that being a big star at a BBQ joint (however tasty) may not be the kind of PR a baby doll needs. A big picture of me signed "Oink! Oink! Oink! -- Betty" is probably not the kind of thing a girl should hang in a place decorated primarily with pigs. And horking down the meat while covered in BBQ sauce is not a sexy image for most of mainstream America.

But hey! I'll take what I get. :) I really do like their BBQ.

Sexy women who eat = concept America needs a lot more of.

Maybe you should sign a photo of you wearing little piggie pasties.

*duck and flee*

would fit real nice on a pastie. And with a little ... erm... amputation... he wouldn't be a flying pig anymore, he'd just be a regular pig. It's a good thing my cheep trim order is in already. :)

Well.. yes... to you Southerners it's probably pansy BBQ, but it's all we got. We think of it as exotic. :P

Yes. THere are several very good barbecue places up here. Surprisingly, Bath in Maine has a really good barbecue place.

Matt & I went to a rib cookoff at Jakes in Waltham this summer, and Blue Ribbon was the definite winner! (Against Rouge, Jake's, and some others I now forget)

Haven't actaully been to the restaraunt - yet.
