Coming Soon

Anyone else feel this way today?

Monday's are the worst. The weekends are never long enough. Is it too much to ask for at least 12-24 more hours to extend our Netflix marathon? Thanks. We might not ever be ready to start another work week, but there are a few things we cannot wait for that are coming soon to a city near you. City near you= Kansas City, obvi.

Here we go.

///Andy's Frozen Custard/// Thank you America Obama Baby Jesus for finally bringing this amazingness local. It's not enough to stop by the Lake of the Ozarks or Springfield locations once or so each year. We need it here and we need it now! Kesh fell in love with the frozen custard in her college days at MSU. There was nothing better than a chocolate shake with cookie dough at 10pm on Wednesday night. Freshman 25, anyone? Try to refrain from drooling whatever device you've chosen to read this post while you check out their menu. We were teased with knowing Andy's was coming to Westport last year when we read an article that it would be opened in August. We've been waiting somewhat patiently ever since.

///Hurts Donut/// See what they did there? We all love the traditional donuts available at Krispy Kreme, Dunkin' Donuts, and, our favorite, Quik Trip [QT may or may not have the best glazed donut in the world. Don't knock it 'til you try it], but none of these places top theirs with fruit loops and bacon or stuff them with Nutella or jalapeno and cream cheese. Yes, this sounds strange, but we've only heard good things about the fried dough they're serving up at Hurts and neither of us is interested in passing up good food anytime soon. [A donut is "food", right?] Hurts Donut started in Springfield, Missouri- unfortunately after Kesh graduated so she wasn't able to stop by for drunk food- and will be expanding to Wichita then KC! (Jacs old stomping grounds-she is also disappointed it was not there for drunk college nights... Guess a new reason to visit Ma and Pa!)  We need to know more, Hurts! When can we expect you and where? We like to anticipate when we can expect to experience a Cookie Monster or Fire in the Hole donut.

///Streetcar/// Kansas City is long overdue for updating our public transportation systems. Let's be honest, we don't have much. There's the Jo and a bus system, maybe? We don't have a subway or a metrolink, but coming this summer we can ride through KC in a rail car.These will be KC's first streetcar rails since 1957. We're not sure where it's picking us up and where it will take us, but for $1 fare, count us in!

You never cease to amaze us, KC. Keep up the good work.

Off to dream about eating a donut topped sundae while riding on a street car,
