Is Amy Poehler dating comedian Nick Kroll 7 months after her marriage ended?

Here are some new photos of Amy Poehler doing some grocery shopping yesterday in West Hollywood. These photos just make me wish that Amy was my mom and she was going to make me dinner. Right? She seems like the kind of mom who likes to guzzle the “cooking wine” while she makes dinner.

Anyway, it’s been about seven months since Amy and Will Arnett announced their split (they announced last September). Since then, it seems like Amy has “won” the split even though there really doesn’t seem to be that sense of competition between she and Will. Still, she co-hosted the Golden Globes, presented at the Emmys with Louis CK (and she looked awesome), and she got some questionable breakup bangs, but overall… she “won”. So has enough time passed for Amy to start dating again?

Amy Poehler seems to have moved on from her estranged husband, Will Arnett. The “Parks and Recreation” star was spotted out on a date with actor and comedian Nick Kroll at the Pikey Cafe and Bar on Sunset Boulevard in Los Angeles last Friday night.

Kroll has a sketch comedy show, “The Kroll Show,” on Comedy Central.

A spy tells us the two looked “cozy” as they sat across from each other at a small table. The couple also went unnoticed by other customers as they dined.

“No one really recognized them,” a witness told us. While sources tell us that this wasn’t a first date, reps for the two comics didn’t get back to us.

Poehler separated from Arnett last September after nine years of marriage. The couple has two children, Archibald, 4, and Abel, 2, together.

I’m including photos of Nick Kroll below – I was vaguely familiar with the name, and now that I’ve put the name to a face, I realize that I’ve seen him all over the place. He takes part in Comedy Central shows and E! shows all the time. He’s funny and he has a sort of “what if Woody Allen was a hipster” vibe. She could do WAY worse.
