I love the update! For some reason 50PT have never appealed to me. I guess I dont want to be fussed at while I eat lol. But I am glad you all enjoyed it and I hope everyone behaves...or at least tries
Thanks! Yes, that Charles' thing, too -- he didn't want to be fussed at, but our waiter was really good about keeping it relatively low-key as far as the fussing was concerned.
Sorry you didn't love Prime Time! We eat there almost every trip. We'll be skipping it this year & eating at Sci Fi instead - a new one for us. We love the food at Prime Time - it's different than most of the other places we eat. Though Alex isn't big on the sarcasm!
You have a nice collection of FPs for your return visit!
Oh, we enjoyed our meal there! It was good filling food, but it didn't wow us like some of the other places we have eaten. The atmosphere was a lot of fun, though. You will love Sci-Fi -- it is so neat to sit and watch the movie clips in cars while you eat.
Isn't it interesting what small things can cause drama in teenage girls?
Oh, yes. Things that wouldn't bother me can ruin Chelsea's entire mood.
The first time I ate at PrimeTime, I was scared to death. I wanted no one to chastise me publicly, so I ate every bite on my plate and was stuffed sick.
The next time I ate there, I went in a little braver. I didn't eat everything, and I was able to put a crumpled napkin over what was left.
I made it out without being fussed at.
There was no way we could have cleaned our plates without being sick the rest of the day.
I have never had the PBJ shake, but everyone raves about them.
I had a few sips of Charles' shake, and it was very tasty!
The TV tables are fun. That is what my house looked like when I was little. I enjoyed seeing the old clips from the shows I knew so very well.
We were cracking up over some of the clips they showed!
Thanks for the fun pictures. I'm headed out in my new old car to get some groceries. This thing sits up so much higher than my Camry, so I feel like I'm driving a school bus!
What kind of car did you get? I am sure you mentioned it on your TR, but I missed it.
A monster at DtD? Oh boy. I'm glad you tried 50's. It looks like Chelsea really enjoyed her cupcake! I loved my viewmaster as a kid. I guess we are old.
Those onion rings sure look good. Sorry the rest of it was just ok.
Oh, just wait until you hear about the monster. It was a doozy!
I loved my Viewmaster as a kid, too! LOL!
LOL...I laughed so hard I almost cried Jackie!!! I so carried at least 3 elactic bands with me in school in order to avoid disaster and rescue others who it happened to. Now a days I cut it short blow dry and call it a day LOL!!!! The things we focus on as a teenager LOL!!!!
I was the same way!
Glad you guys had a good meal there!! I love 50s and will be eating there in January (solo) should be interesting LOL!!!!!!
Don't forget to get a shake!
Hmmm...Monster attacks DTD...can't wait to hear that story!!
Coming up this morning!
So I'm pretty sure we have the same countdown...so I wish much speed for the next 10 days of school ( I have 7 whole days and 3 half days!!!) I'm thinking of all us teachers WE CAN MAKE IT!!!!!
Only five more days for us now! I am giving final exams tomorrow, and then, the mad grading rush begins!
I never had long hair when I was a teenager (yup - I was a real trendsetter
, but was sometimes mistaken for a boy), but I know now I panic when I can't find a hair clip!
I almost always wear my hair in a ponytail these days -- I should just cut it short again.
Sounds like the perfect lunch experience complete with primo table. I'm surprised your uncle didn't look for a 13 year old boy with braces and ask them to kiss. That's what happened to Brian when he was 13! Our uncle called him "sparkey" and then made a general announcement until he could find a compatible brace-mate of the opposite sex. So funny!
That must have been hilarious!
Jackie, I love your teenage drama-filled updates.
You will really like the next one, then.
Poor Chelsea! There's nothing worse for a teenage girl to have some kind of hair or fashion mishap. Next year, remind her to bring extra hair elastics, as well as any other necessary make-up, in her park bag.
Oh, yes, nowadays she carries about six with her at all times. Her bag is a bit like Mary Poppins'. LOL!
OMG, that Viewmaster comment makes me feel old too
We're making inventions in science and I decided to show my class old infomercials. We watched the one for the Clapper. My students wanted to know why the television in the commerical looked funny
Charles and I love telling the kids about things when we were their age. Their expressions are priceless!
DTD sounds fun, but how did Chelsea turn into a monster?? Can't wait for the next update!
Coming up this morning!
Those onion rings look so good. We just made ADRS this week nad up until last minute I had this place on my list and then changed it. I think I have been to a dozen TRs where kids of all ages have a meltdown there. I wonder what it is about that place?
The onion rings were very good.
It's probably because they are stressed about behaving so the waiters don't fuss at them, and they just can't hold it together. LOL!
Ahhhhhh..teenage drama! We had a bit of teenage angst on our trip.
Heck...I've even got a picture of Hannah with "the look" and she's only 8!
I guess it is inevitable that there will be teenage drama. That day there was even a bit from Connor -- that's coming later on.
We liked 50's PT when we went on our 1st trip but opted for someplace different this time. I like the themeing in there and get a kick out of watching the old shows.
I am so glad we tried it once. I feel complete now that we have tried all the restaurants in DHS. LOL!
Monster at DtD????!!!
Oh, yes, in a big way!
We really enjoyed our dinner at 50's PTC in Sept. Our waitress was excellent and the food was SUPER yummy! The dining room sang happy birthday to Madison too and she just loved it. We didn't get a viewmaster though for dessert...bummer. However, Madison knows what a viewmaster is. She has one!
I should have bought one for the kids when they were little. I don't know how I missed doing that.
