What movie do I know him from?

Fun fact about me: I love piecing together actors' career timelines and making connections between other actors. It's kind of like solving a mystery, especially when I can figure it out myself without the help of IMDB.

My most recent discovery stemmed from a conversation at work about the 2004 Phantom of the Opera. Did you know that Gerard Butler was the phantom? Random - how do you go from opera to crazy violence to romantic comedies? And Raoul - Patrick Wilson, Little Children and Watchmen. Then finally Christine - Emmy Rossum, now divorced from her secret husband and dating Adam Duritz. I'm sorry, what?

Larimer Square

After almost 8 years of living in Denver I finally got around to checking out some of the shops on Larimer Square. Loved all of them and had a DELICIOUS French meal at Bistro Vendome. A few noteworthy stops:

Cry Baby Ranch - I'm def not a cowgirl so not much I'd buy there but such a fun shop to browse

Dog Savvy Boutique and Spa - the best dog toys and accessories! they also own For the Love of Dog in Glendale which is my fav doggie daycare.

Equipment de Vin - fantastic wine accessory store, perfect place to go gift shopping

All of the apparel shops were really cute as well but I can't remember which was which!

Bistro Vendome - might be a new favorite! amazing food, great service, cozy atmosphere and they offer great specials throughout the week

Cru Wine Bar - has always been one of my fav spots. great wine and appetizer selection, perfect place for friends to catch up

Osteria Marco - didn't go there on this trip but do LOVE it so I thought I'd include it, I've never had a dish there that I didn't like - fun atmosphere for groups

DAM Psychedelic Exhibit

The Psychedelic Experience: Rock Posters from the San Francisco Bay Area, 1965-1971
March 21-July 19, 2009 at the Denver Art Museum

DAM will celebrate the era that espoused free love, a vibrant rock music scene and spectacular graphic design with The Psychedelic Experience: Rock Posters from the San Francisco Bay Area, 1965-1971. The exhibition will showcase more than 250 wildly experimental and visually stunning works from DAM’s newly acquired collection of posters promoting dance concerts and other “happenings” that have since become iconic symbols of the youth culture of the '60s and '70s. Put some flowers in your hair and get ready for an eye-opening art trip back in time!
