hello again

right. so we're back. it's been nearly a year, but we're back. doesn't it just make you want to sing?

you'll find our first official review below, along with a couple posts about how we should start betting, lunching and blogging again.

for those of you who know us, welcome back. for all newcomers, here's a brief recap of what you've missed. for more details, please see all other entries in this entire freaking blog.

september 2005
codenames olive and mason work together at an office in chicago and are secretly dating. they make a bet one day, the stakes being lunch. an idea is born: make bets, eat lunch, review restaurants, keep relationship a secret from coworkers.

october 2005
in a stunning turn of events, olive makes out with mason in his office (something she previously swore she would never do), securing herself a free lunch at volare.

december 2005
just in time for christmas, olive and mason are officially outed at their office holiday party, and the chicago reader catches O&M fever.

february 2006
olive and mason post their first video review of a restaurant. who knew it would be their last...

april 2006
things slow down a bit. maybe (no wait, definitely) O&M got a bit too ambitious with the whole video review thing, but whatever the case, there wouldn't be another review until today...

march 2007
nearly a year later, olive and mason resurface with their first review of 2007. they no longer work together -- olive left for another company of similar focus, but mason remains at the same office, where the story of their secret relationship is already legendary. they continue betting and lunching on a regular basis.

look for a working RSS feed coming soon, and check back often for updates. a new bet has already been made...
