TGIF...wow, that is like the ultimate suburbanized dining adventure...

Alright, I was guilty of patronizing a TGIF the last time I was in MN, but in my own defense it was the only place (nearby) where we could get booze on a Sunday! That's right folks, MN has a "dry Sunday" law, in addition to not allowing alcohol to be sold at convenient stores or supermarkets. So basically, the only place you can buy booze is at a liquor store Mon-Sat or if you go to a restaurant.

Anyone else feel like there's something wrong with this picture? I mean, if the Lord didn't want us to drink on Sunday, he would not have made it so f*cking delicious...and FUN. Anyway, it was TGIF or get drunk on wine coolers, which is the only thing low enough in alcohol to be sold at grocery stores (and sadly, we had already done that).

Well, drinking woes behind me, I'm a Californian now and I'll never forget that first time at my local COSTCO when I got that special feeling as I realized, "They sell ALCOHOL in BULK?!?!"
