TwinSoup: Sacramento's Daily Dish, Meaty and Delicious

He bought you a Mariah Carey album for Valentine’s Day and he always put a little extra Butterfinger in your Blizzards. You had braces and an unnecessary perm. Thirteen was a rough year for some –but for you – it was a rite of passage. You finally put down Sweet Valley High and obsessed over Cruel Intentions. You’re not the only person progressing. Adam Pechal is becoming a little less “chef” and a lot more “restaurateur” with Restaurant THIR13EN.

You and Mother-in-law Nature haven’t always seen eye to eye. Take that camping trip last year. She thought a week without a shower and your Venus would be liberating.

Excuse their potty mouth (afterall they did get it from you), but they think it’s really rude that you strap them in five-inch-high torture chambers and make them schlep about town day in and day out. Get back into their good graces with this season’s hottest shoe trend: The Flatform.

Sure you’d love to hire Jennifer Lopez as your wedding planner (and Matthew McConaughey as your groom.)

Here’s a savvy bride workaround: Mimi & Co. presents Love and Lust, A Wedding Trends Event, this Sunday, May 22nd.

The late 90′s conjure up painful memories: platinum streaks, barely there brows, lip liner in ‘Raisin’, and Mr. Meathead Mistake. Luckily, you’re a virtual master at reinventing yourself (and burning photographic evidence). Which is why you’ll appreciate Mikuni Kaizen now open in the Fountains.
