Mmmmmm.. cheesecake!

I had lunch today at the Cheesecake Factory. I have to say, I am not a fan of chain restaurants and will avoid them like the plague. This is easy to do in Buffalo with our wide variety of damn good dining options. But today, I hit our brand spankin' new Cheesecake Factory because well, it's cheesecake people. Cheesecake! How can that possibly be a bad thing, right? Cheesecake! (I like to say it about as much as I like to eat it.)

And speaking of chain restaurants and cheese, come to find out that Buffalo is also getting their very own Melting Pot. Cheese! Because how can melted cheese be a bad thing? And melted chocolate? Oh, the possibilities are endless.

The chains are discovering Buffalo. And my very favorite chain set to be open here this week? SEPHORA! It opens Friday and I am in love. I literally had my nose pressed up against the glass of the closed store today. I could see Philosophy and my Amazing Grace! I could see pretty little brushes and tubes of goop!

I literally barely wear make up and I am more excited for this store than I should be. I just may come out of the store all foundationed and fake eyelashed to the hilt. And then I'll go eat Cheesecake! Or Melted Cheese! Hmmmm, what did I say about hating chains again?
