The tooth is coming out TOMORROW MORNING!!!
WooHoo!! Just have to survive another 24 hours and it's OUTTA HERE!
lighttech, a tour of the studios. Hmmm
I'll have some leverage with DH since he wants to take this trip to NYC. I'll have to bring it up to him. Restaurant recommendation would be great when you have some time. What's a trip to NY without some great food.
Ev, sending you some
since I think you need it more than I do.
Come on by! I generally work Saturdays, and I've never really looked into it, but I think I can get a family and friends discount on the tour tickets.
Ok, food... My all time favorite is an Italian place called Carmine's. Its Family Style, and therefore very reasonable for NY prices. Don't know how many of you are going, but the entrees serve 3 easily. You've gotta get the tirimisu for dessert... the darn thing comes in a pie plate! If you like BBQ, Virgil's is excellent. The founders traveled all over the US researching diff't BBQ styles and brought their favorite recipes back. Then there's some smaller places that are fun, including a place that only serves PB sandwiches... but crazy ones, like a PB BLT!
DH and I did a "foodie" trip of NY one time where we researched on the Travel Channel and Food Network websites and just ate our way thru the city. How much time will you have, who will be with you, and what kind of stuff would you like? I think I may still have some stuff bookmarked in our travel books from a few places we considered visiting (anything from parks to museums to the fancy McDonald's near Wall Street - marble floors in a Mcy-D's!)
Makes me appreciate that I'm leaving TOMORROW night! Of course, its supposed to be even colder tomorrow....
lighttech, you have no idea how excited your news of a QVC tour made me! I LOVE to take tours of places! I'm putting that down on my list for my Pennsylvania adventure!
Yeah! Wendy's tooth is going bye-bye tomorrow!
Have a Wonderful Trip! And, if you do want to come to QVC, definitely let me know. We're going thru a major re-construction right now, but should be finished by February.
Just got an idea....For our TKer meet, Racetrack can design some 'killer' shorts with TKer Rule on the butt!
I will only wear them if they say
TKerZ R HOT
I'm pretty sure that you have to abbreviate things and change your "Ss" to Zs to be cool.
D&DDisney-Love all the smilies. Too funny.
Alright, promised DS some time on the computer. I can't believe I have to share computer time w/ a 3 year old!
But, I told him he could play while I got some Christmas decorations put away (we're SO behind since I was sick) and that way we would reclaim the kitchen table from the ornaments and draw or do play-doh. Kind of guilty, but I must admit, I'm enjoying having a sick day at home w/ DS (just wish he didn't have to be sick) just the 2 of us. Its so calm w/ only one kiddie, and I know he's missed getting the individual attention. I realized we really haven't had any Mommy-DS time in a while w/o BL on my lap or needing something. (Not complaining, that's BLs job!) But, I think once in a while, I really need to make more of an effort to spend some "special time" w/ each boy.
Take care guys!
A week in Disney, no problem. One day in NY and I am freaking out.
Glad to see you made it back safely. Sorry about your cold. Plenty of fluids and vitamin C!
I've been telling him for years that we should go and the answer has always been no. I haven't been to NYC since I was in 8th grade and that was a school trip. I am so clueless. We would only drive up for the day or overnight at the most. I know you all had suggestions for Pikester but her trip sounds like it would be alot longer. I think DH just wants to see the highlights but any other suggestions would be helpful.
(Mickey Mouse Club House is almost over... 
)
We, of course, are missing it. Just normal cold here.
