MMM Via Napoli looks like a must try!
Brrrr Sorry you are getting so much snow. Nice you could stay in all cozy and write an update! We're supposed to get a dusting next week, that's normal for here. Yay for the football game - sounds like Timmy's team won!
Via Napoli is really good- I keep flip flopping about stopping there for luch on our last day on THIS upcoming trip, but I think I finally have decided to skip it, because our plane leaves at 5:30 which means DME will be earlier (than usual) for us at 2:30- I think my boys would rather go on a few rides in those last hours than eat pizza!
And yea- Tyler's team won- and I would have written TONS of updates, that was plan...but we lost power Saturday at 1:30 and didn't get it back until Monday at 10- Joan just got hers back on Tuesday! And our town was not NEARLY as affected as the towns north of here- schools in New Providence, Mountainside, Berkeley Hts- just the NEXT towns- are still closed today and people still don't have power. It's a war zone- trees uprooted, huge branches down- I nearly got into an accident just picking Tyler up at the High School (5 minutes away) because it was soooo icy and bad, and I was literally crawling in the car I was driving so cautiously. What a mess!!
What a nice trip that all of you had. I would have been crying myself saying those goodbyes! My DH doesn't understand all of this Dis stuff either which makes it hard for me to do a trip with a group of girls!
this is what makes the trip so special (well, one of MANY things)- that we all DO get the DIS stuff!! Nice to be surrounded and submerged in that!
So did you make a run to the store for milk & bread? For the life of me I can't figure out what is done with all that bread & milk during a snow storm! Vodka & rum, YES!
I was actually going to do regular shopping for the weekend on Friday, and when I got to the supermarket it was so crowded you would have thought the next day was Christmas!! I remarked to someone how i couldn't find a parking space, and they told me there was going to be a big snowstorm. HUH?????So yea, I did get milk and bread, but that was on the list already.
Thank goodness it wasn't OH getting the snow for once! Hope you didn't lose power!
You should have wished harder!!
Such a sad post then followed by a more upbeat one! I didn't know whether to laugh or cry!
Sorry about that- but that's how it was....
Wickets Mom - the bread is for the PBJ and the milk is for all the cereal you eat when the power goes out and you can't cook anything!
I hope you got to see Star Tours!
Me too!!!

Then why no run on cereal!? I don't usually have that much cereal in the house! Besides, I just use the gas grill, it will cook just like the gas stove.
FWIW, I was able to cook dinner both nights because we have a gas stove- I just did it by candlelight. Saturday night I made tilapia with tomatoes and green olives that was insanely good, Sunday I made a chicken jambalaya kind of thing- Pods says I cook better without electricity. But I think that's just because I was not following any recipes, I was just cooking from my heart. Awww....
the pizza's and drinks look yummo!
so glad you all survived the snow.. I was watching your fb post while I was tanning in the 85degree weather we had here in Sunny California... thinking poor things!
NICE.... Your support this year has been overwhelming- first in the earthquake, now in the freak Noreaster....don't worry, Missy- I bet YOUR day is coming out there in sunny CA!!!
We know you .... you had another drink for Ellen!
Yes, I am absolutely POSITIVE that is how she showed her support!
