The two ladies in Keeping up with the Jones are Isla Fisher (yes married to Sasha Baron Cohen), she was in Now You See Me and The Wedding Crashers. Probably two of her bigger films. The other lady is Gal Gadot (pronounced like guy/gal, last name Ga-DOT.) She’s Israeli and mostly known for being badass in the Fast and Furious movies and is currently playing Wonder Woman (both in the Batman v. Superman piece of crap and her stand alone movie next year, which I’m praying is good.) She did all of her own stunts in Fast and Furious because she was in the Israeli army (all citizens have to be in for 2 yrs I think?)
I am even further behind than Kelly. I am still on episode 441 but I think it was 440 where you all talked about burgers. My favorite new burger is at Boulevard Burgers & Brews and is called The Belgian Burger: Hoegaarden (a Belgian beer) carmelized onions, goat cheese and apricot jam.
And I had to laugh, Stennie, when you mentioned the amount of fries served at Five Guys. Several years ago I read a review of Five Guys and the writer said they give you enough fries to serve a platoon! One time when I was eating at the location basically on the campus of Virginia Commonwealth University, there were three homeless teens sitting on the sidewalk in front of Five Guys. When I left I bought them a “large” order of fries, figuring that should do them a meal or two.
P.S. – I forgot to say that instead of fries at Boulevard Burgers & Brew, we get SpicyThai Fried Green Beans. Yum yum.
