I checked out the new bar last night that opened Thursday on Congress; Playground.

Playground opened by Kade Mislinski who also owns The hub- has done a wonderful job.

The atmosphere is fun!

Lots of intimate private areas and creative fun visuals.

My favorite the hanging swingings above the bar!

I had “The Sling” which was tasty ( I am craving one just thinking about it).

One thing that did bother me on the menu was there was not a large price

range between the drinks on the menu. I believe they had 8 dollar drinks and 9 dollar

drinks- which is  expected with fancy fun choices but it seems like most places have a

page with six dollar & eight dollar, seven & ten… you get my drift!  Some drinks have way

more alcohol, better quality & quantity not worth eight bucks. Just my opinion. 

OH, and the guys in the front with the suits- really ought to go. If they had been at my Playground. I would have been hiding for all of recess. Maybe something nice but comfortable…. not creepy CIA.

Anyhow, Playground is fun. Something very different from the usual downtown Tucson.

Now that the new season of Gossip girl has begun. My favorite night of the week returns.

My girl-y night. Growing up- I was always the one playing soccer, catching grasshoppers, and playing cowboy and indians. But, I always had this inner desire to be that girly girl at school. I’ve never been organized enough to paint my nails every week, do a face mask, or even shave my legs every couple days. Gossip Girl gives me that each week. It is so cheesy, ridiculously dramatic, yet so wonderful. Best of all, it brings out the girly side of me. And I go all out – with a healthy dinner, comfy PJs, nail polish, face mask, crafts, and a treat. It’s my night!

Anyhow, thought I’d share my monday night.

Apologies for the mess up on the recipe.

Happy Tuesday!
