(500) days of summer

If you haven't heard of this movie yet, that's a crime. Go see it. Right now. (500) Days of Summer was fantastic! In Salt Lake, it is only playing at the Broadway Theater--where they show independent films.

Zooey Deschanel & Joseph Gordon-Levitt did a great job portraying the ups and downs of a relationship that lasted 500 days. You really cannot help but love these characters. And the dance scene? Wow. It was such a delightful, different-than-you expect, treat. I want to go see it again today. :o)

Before the movie last night, my friend Brittany and I had dinner at the delicious Naked Fish Japanese Bistro. Yummy! We shared edamame and two sushi rolls. The Connect roll was melt-in-your-mouth-fantastic. And the atmosphere of the restaurant was so enjoyable. We were seated in a separate room, had to take our shoes off, and sat on the floor at a low table--so fun.
Then we walked around downtown to kill time before our movie started. We found a few random shops with vintage clothing/furniture and lots of fun, novelty gifts. The Frosty Darling is a quirky little boutique--fun stuff.

Here are some pics of Brittany and me looking at some vintage clothes. We had a fun night!
