On Saturday night, I went to dinner with my friends (not a joke) at a delicious Italian restaurant in Tribeca called Ivy's Bistro. Mmmm, I ate off of every plate on the table except for Adam's shrimp soup. And it's not because you can't eat soup from a plate either. He ate the soup from a bowl. Regardless, I can't lie, the shrimp soup looked disgusting. I didn't have the heart to tell him that to his face so I waited until now to say it. While I enjoyed some of Adam's lobster ravioli and Sara's meatloaf, we discussed how lame our eating habits are. I think I eat at the same three "restaurants" ALL THE TIME. It gets a little boring but I don't want to waste money on food that might not be yummy and filling all in one. Anyway, during this deep conversation, Adam mentioned a restaurant called Ninja. He claimed that there are legit ninja warriors/waiters, serving authentic Japanese food in an atmosphere similar to a place where ninja's might live(?). As you can imagine, for an experience like this, you have to be willing to pay. I am VERY willing to pay BUT I don't have the money to pay. I'm not a "professional" like the rest of my affluent friends. So I decided to combine my love of eating with my desire for money and badabing-badaboom, I came up with this new money making endeavor to satisfy the hungry ninja within:
Lately, I've been earning cash eating food that you shouldn't eat regularly or ever. SO, I started The Ninja Fund.
I am making my Ninja dreams come true by completing any food related dare in return for a monetary donation.
As of now I have two dares:
1. Donor: Cameron
Donation Amount: $1.00 + cost of food item
Dare: Drink Steven Segal's Asian Experience Energy Drink
2. Donor: Adam
Donation: $2.00 + cost of food item
Dare: Drink any flavor of the Muscle Milk they sell at Jubilee in 2 minutes.
I am taking dares anytime because my fund is completely empty as of 11:05 PM on Monday February 11, 2008.
Also, the fund accepts spare change (Chuck).

Love,
Ninja Jenna
