in boston, part 2

The next day, Angie took me to Newberry Street.


(Lots of department stores and boutiques. Everything was very, very expensive. I did not buy anything.)

We went to a sweet art-jazz bar called the Beehive.


(This is what i look like standing next to the Beehive chalkboard.)

We ordered some wine, and i noticed there was Chartreuse behind the bar. I asked the bartender about the spirit, and he says:

"Here, i will let you taste some." He fills a rocks glass with ice and pours me a double shot of yellow Chartreuse. (there is a green Chartreuse as well, according to THIS WEBSITE the yellow is milder.)

And here i am drinking Chartreuse.


(it was awful. this was all Quentin Tarrintino's fault. if you've ever seen Death Proof that's why.)

we took pictures of ourselves.



(damn right, we're cute.)

Later, we went out for beer, which is also very expensive in boston. It was Valentines Day, so we decided to celebrate by going to a dive-y place called the Silhouette.


(7$ pitchers of PBR. We had 5.)

We met some of Ange's friends, and walked over to her favourite bar called Deep Ellum.


(not to be confused with Deep Ellum, Texas.)

The biggest difference between the Silhouette and Deep Ellum was the cost.
Silhouette: 7$ pitchers.
Deep Ellum: 7$ beers.


(by this time yours truly was a very happy girl, and needed to rest her very happy eyes. which i did. about 20 minutes after this photo was taken.)

day 2 was awesome.
