Do-It-Yourself Portlandia Episodes

As far as the television show Portlandia goes, the episodes pretty much write themselves.

Yesterday Red and I went to the People's Co-op on SE 21st to do some Sunday grocery shopping. Among other things, we bought ourselves each a G.T.'s Cherry Chia Kombucha. Red was already drinking hers as she drove back home. We were coming down Hawthorne or Division, can't remember which, and Red points to a small restaurant on the right side of the street.

"I had lunch there once," she said. "It's a Vegan place. It was sort of...disgusting."

She makes an unsavory face as she says this. It's not like her to dislike a place so much.

"Right there's another Portlandia episode," I said. "It opens with a couple driving by that restaurant having exactly the same conversation we were just having. Then it cuts inside, where we see the main charcters from the show sitting at a table eating a meal, and saying how much they love this place."
