April 2006 : Spontaneous Day Trip

25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee Broadway Show

Trippin'.
Nothing beats a day trip to the city for some good food and capping it off with a show. Crustacean's a major grease fest, so if you're not watching your weight, this is the place for you. 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee was absolutely hilarious-- a comedic twist on a typical elementary school spelling bee. So funny, it's a must watch. We ended the night with, what else, food! Andalu's great because is tapas style; small plates to share. The powdered donut holes and chocolate dip sauce was mouth- watering good.

2 Year Anniversary in Wine Country

Trippin'.
We celebrated our 2 year anniversary in Napa. A quiet stroll through the downtown and a few samplings of some vineyards pretty much sums up our weekend. Just wished we could have stumbled upon a a vineyard that served salami and cheese on the side of your tastings. It's what I'd imagine when I think of wine tasting. Next time, we'll bring our own. The Wine Train was a romantic experience and introduced me to one of my favorite vineyards-- Chandon. Best Kobe burger at a reasonable price has to be at The Grill-- amazing!

6 - 8 January : "O"

My Vegas Birthday

Trippin'.
A weekend getaway for my birthday was just the ticket! Tickets to see "O" happened to be a bonus. We had a typical Vegas weekend-- minus the clubs and the gambling-- all food and shopping! We packed in an entire weeks worth of dining in 3 days which was no easy task. Most memorable has to be the free bread basket at Mesa Grill. Proof that my stomach could not handle much more, I had two drinks at the Firefly after "O" and, let's just say, saw my entire weekend's meals flashed before my eyes.. and into the trash can. Another memorable birthday to remember.


Sleeping: Paris Las Vegas
Eating: Eiffel Tower Restaurant-- for a romantic dinner. A definite must is to order the banana souffle for dessert. To die for!
