On Friday night I went with six of my gym friends to The Paint Bar in Newton for a little girls night out.  I had been there once before for Slesh‘s birthday night out a couple of years ago.  It was just as fun the second time around!  Also, we haven’t had a gym girls night in a while so this was long overdue and much needed.  This time I knew we could bring in our own snacks, so Liz brought a plate of cheese and crackers and I baked some flourless peanut butter chocolate chip cookies for the girls. 

I know I’ve blogged about The Paint Bar before, but there really is a wonderful energy about this place.  The room is always buzzing and the staff members are very helpful, energetic, and funny.  The jokes about leaving your Type A personality behind never get old, to me anyways.  In fact, they actually were funnier this time around because I am so much more comfortable in my own skin now than I was a couple of years ago, and I embrace my Type A personality.  It’s a lot less stressful than trying to be someone I’m not. 

Anyways, we painted “Moonlit Boston,” and although I had some issues painting my moon at the beginning (it looked more like a cone or an egg than a moon!), I am pleased with the way my painting turned out.  If you are looking for something different to do, I highly recommend The Paint Bar.  It’s perfect for unwinding with a glass (or two) of wine, catching up with friends, and relaxing.  It really is a great stress reliever!  I would go back again and again.

Have you ever been to The Paint Bar (or somewhere similar?)

Fun night ladies!  When’s the next one?
