Chicago Pre-meet Gino's - Fri Jan 17th

[Bunchkin]

Pizza sounds reallllllyyyyy good!! I'll have check with Tony when he gets home.

If it's undecided which Gino's to go to, I'll throw in my vote for the Gino's in Orland Park. Boy it sure would be nice for us southsiders to have the Pizza Meet-za closer to us for a change.
I'm sure Brian would second my vote on the Orland Park Gino's!
Right Brian?????

Sending you a PM Brandie

Okay...
I could give you a buzz when we got close...

If this wasn't a family board I could have fun with that statement Shep!

 

[helenabear]

ignoring Beccy's comment there

You still have my cell phone number, right Todd?

ok...say, hypothetically, if someone were to come to this little get together and needed a nice, but cheap hotel, where would you stay?

Hi, Scarlett! If you're SURE you can attend - I'd try Priceline for a 2-1/2 or 3-star hotel in Schaumburg. If the GINO'S is the one in Rolling Meadows - it's close to Schaumburg, and also not too far from the theater in Addison.

Kim - I will TRY to see what I can work out for that Friday, because I LOVE Gino's pizza!

I have to check my coaching schedule and with Ellen, we are may be's at this point.

That's perfect Todd!!


Nicole, wasn't the Chicago Ridge Mall close enough for ya?

I'm always traveling to these things!

 

[Bunchkin]

Kim-

Yes, I suppose that Chicago Ridge mall was close......considering how *far* we had to drive for pizza the night before!!!!

I just figured it would be nice to expand our culinary quest of pizza. Just to make sure that they all are made the same way and taste soooo delicious!!

It's like that 'tree in the woods' thing......if a pizza is made at another Gino's is someone there to eat it. We may never know............

Hey Kim, try about 380 miles of traveling first (just teasing you )

Seriously I would prefer where we were last time most because that is closest to where I will be staying and probably easiest for me to find. Rosemont would be okay too, but much more south than that I think I'd wind up pulling my hair out trying to get to after driving so far that day anyway

 

[kejoda]

You all shouldn't complain! I think I'm driving the farthest and with 3 boys. Boy I must be some kind of nut!

 

[helenabear]

Just curious, how many miles will you be traveling?

 

[Bunchkin]

kejoda-

The lure of a great person would make anyone crazy!!
Not just a long drive with children.

 

[kejoda]

I don't remember!LOL It will take us about 7 hours.

Rosemont is near the airport.

 

[helenabear]

Yeah yeah yeah Beccy... it is supposed to take me 6 1/2 hours... I don't let that stop me from getting there in 5 (j/k... well not really as it does take only 5-6 hours, but I don't expect that of anyone else)

Thanks Dan... actually as I was looking at the map trying to find it earlier, and believe it or not, Cleo "pointed" it out to me. Smart girl she is... I guess that one is close enough but I'll need directions if we go there. actually I'd need them for the one in Rolling Medows too

 

[Dopeygirl]

Count me in! For location, I really don't care. But if we go to the Rosemont one, they better have my dang salad this time!! Oh, how I ADORE that salad!!

 

[shep]

I think we will all be playing hooky friday and leaving here around noon...

 

[KimRaye]

Trish & Chris, what's the name of that salad, again? In case we do go to Rosemont, I better call first. Otherwise, I think for ALL our safety, we better go to Rolling Meadows!!! And Trish, BE SURE to order the dressing ON THE SIDE, please!!

As for me, I'm looking for the mushroom-pizza-sharers again!! Nicole?? (Who else?)

Rolling Meadows or Rosemont is still fine with me. Anyone else?
