Grizzlies Win, Dirty Dova Fun, It's Cold Outside

Nice win by the Memphis Grizzlies over the Indiana Pacers last night. It was my first opportunity this season to see the Grizzlies in person. They looked ok, but it is obvious that Zach Randolph is dearly missed.

After the game, we made one of our few excursions to Cordova to check out Stella Marris. The Italian restaurant (Ronnie Grisanti is the Chef) and "lounge" is quite an eye catcher and the crowd wasn't too bad for a Friday night. Apparently Saturday nights are the time to go. Staffers claimed there were almost 750 people at the club last Saturday night. The only sketchy part of the club the requirement to have two forms of identification to get in. The practice has been implemented to prevent underage patrons from entering, but I had less requirements when visiting the DMV. Check out more info and pics on the Stella Marris Facebook Page.

Finally, winter weather has arrived in the Mid-South. There is a slight chance of snow on Monday morning, but Memphis usually avoids the snow quantities needed for a fun Snow Day. Ways to avoid the cold? Stay inside and cuddle up with your special someone on the pre-Valentine's Day weekend. Or you can go to FedEx Forum to watch the Tigers play UAB. Stay warm!
