To make last week even crazier, Friday evening after work, with fake blood and clown white still in my hair from Thursday night's haunted house, I hopped in Betty and drove to Memphis to spend the weekend with my girl Meredith. I love Meredith and I love Memphis, so spending the weekend there with her was an absolute treat!
Our actual Halloween night was pretty laid back (see me as a regrettable "lumberjane" [term courtesy of Nicole] there on the left) but we made up for it on Saturday night! We cooked dinner at Dith's apartment which was so nice, and then we hit the town. I love Beale St. and I survived Raiford's (this time.)
We ended up eating hot chicken on both Friday and Saturday night (Friday- quick Halloween party chicken tender, Saturday- Jackson, Dith's bf, our hero, made fried chicken- amazing!) so we dubbed it #spicychickenweekend. I haven't fully explored that hashtag, but I guess I'd be a little nervous to.
Every time I visit Memphis I really fall in love with it a little more. So many unassuming, cool spots, and so much charming history. And of course, friends that I adore. Thank you Meredith and Jackson for being fantastic hosts! I can't wait to come back and visit you at school (they're both A+ teachers) and go see a Grizzly's game together!
Did you all have a crazy fun Halloween? Completely enjoying seeing everyone's costumes, and making up for mine this year by working on NEXT year's already.

sounds like you had a great time. I had a nice Halloween. I was a viking towns lady.
I've heard so many great things about Memphis and this post makes me want to take a trip there even more! Happy Tuesday, Priya! Enjoy a lovely day :)

Awe, looks like you had a great time visiting your friends! I have only been to Memphis once and didn't really get a chance to explore, but hot chicken is right up my alley! Yum!!!
