I'm trying to remember who had dinner with Gary Coleman tonight... oh yeah, WE DID!



OK, OK. So maybe we didn't totally have dinner with him... maybe we just saw him at the restaurant ordering some take out, but pretty much it's the same thing, right?

Now, in response to all the comments that I know people are going to make, the answer is no, I didn't ask him 'Whatchu talkin' bout Willis?'

Here's the upside of all this: we found a new, local, really good restaurant. The name of the place is Jaxies and it's on Main Street in Spanish Fork. Our neighbors own and operate the joint. We went in to check it out, a little unsure of what we might find. We were delighted with the food.

They primarily serve Paninis, Salads and Wraps. I had a pesto chicken Panini and Steff had a Turkey/Bacon/Avacado panini. Man they were both good.

Anywho, any locals should go check it out and support the neighbors. Plus, we found out Gary Coleman gets food there about once a week, so you just might be as cool as us and get to eat in the presence of movie stars... er...

Does he live in Spanish Fork? Well I can top that, when I was at Disneyland at age 15 I ran into one of the girls from "Eight is Enough" and she said I had beautiful eyes. Man we know so many celebrities, we should be famous ourselves!
Whatcha talkin about Matt?

So, my old hairstylist can beat that. She was doing the hair and make-up for some companies in house video and Gary Coleman was on the set. By the end of the three-day shoot, Gary Coleman had told her that he loved her and had given her a foot massage. (BTW- he's totally married)

Jer and I have always talked about trying Jaxies. Who owns it? It sounds super tasty!

Adam worked on a mortgage loan for him last spring. It was killer for Adam not to say the "Willis" phrase to him. Small world!

Uber cool. A celeb sighting in Spanish Fork! We will have to go try Jaxies sometime. Sounds yum.

I believe he has had a little trouble with the law lately.....actually a lot of trouble. It is shocking that a child celebrity would have anger managament issues.....

Dave said...

Speaking of anger management...Matt, did they ever press charges when you punched that clown? jk jk

When I waitressed at Cracker Barrell he would come in all the time and I had to refrain myself every time from saying, "Watcha talkin' about Willis". As far as the restaurant goes it sounds yummy...our neighbor across the street owns it and he's a great guy according to Tyler. Oh Stef, here's the deal, when you let me babysit your cute kids then I will let you babysit H in return!! You're just too nice:)

Glad you didn't try and take a picture of him....I'd hate to see you on the news.

Our RS is having a Girls Night Out at Jaxies tomorrow night. Good food + no kids = good times.

So...since Charlie is taller and stronger than Coleman - did he run up to him, grab his food from him, and run out the door before he knew what was going on? (inside Home Teacher joke)

Marcy said...

Awesome--I'm going to try the place out. Oh, and I lived in the same general area as Gary Coleman for a year and a half, but I never saw him once.

ok, I saw your blog through Jana Black's blog. I hope you don't mind me sneaking a peak. That's funny, I always wondered if I was taller than Gary Coleman...hmmmm.
