Sweet Home Saratoga: A Happyhaunt Haunted Hootenanny!

[tabrizia]

Then... off to WEGMANS sweet WEGMANS!!! (Suck it Sher!) Heh heh.

I love Wegmans, best grocery store ever. I hold it over my Mom's head that she doesn't have one and there is one less then 5 minutes from my house, across the street from my husband's office actually. Wegmans openned I never go anywhere else for food ever now, Wegmans or bust.

 

[1000thhappyhaunt]

Reply guys!

tongatoast: I'm glad you're here too. and. I know we have so much in common so it's heartwarming. Cheers!


GreatBiscuit (Biscuie!): Beth had a stuffy guy when she was really little that she named "Biscuie" (uhhhmmm...pronounced Bis-Key) and she loved him sooo much that she basically shredded him into fur and stuffing. He was done.

Now...it's my turn.

Heh heh.


Cause... I need to know how to fix my avatar and if you don't tell Me(l). I WILL!

of course I'm joking here but... ???? I hate begging and I'm not good at it. And I think I've suffered enuff.

Glad ur on board here. And there's this: Mellyman prolly DOES have to drink to survive a vacation with me. Heh heh. Not really. But it prolly stops him from shaking me real hard sometimes.

Borg about VEGANS lol!!!


Tinkerellabella: Dammit! Tinkerbellerella!: Very confusselling tfi.

Hopefully I'm somewhat close.


Cats throw up for good reason. Pretty sure it's a planned thingie. On flipflops is really funny, tho. Very personal. Lushycat sometimes throws up on my bed. How much more personal can it get? One time I was deeply asleep and she climbed up on top of me and started to make throwing up sounds. I punted her off. Feeling not a bit of guilt.

Yet. She follows me around all the time like the dog. While trying to avoid the dog. The dynamic there is pretty freakin' funny. To witness, tho. Soooo... seems she likes me. But then tries to throw up on me? Go figure.

And... the week before this last trip she got really sick and had to go to the vets. She was squealing and pacing and not eating and it was horrible. Ends up she was just *SUPER* constipated and I had to change her food cause she's a "mature" cat now. Everything worked out. After she took a poop the size of herself. Basically. But I was frantic for a few days.

Stupid cat.

I love her.

plus... you *MAY* have something there with the drinking Coke all nite. And not sleeping. But...can't eat chips and dip without Coke. Just seems wrong.

Wegmans is awesome. I love it too.


tabrizia: I'm so JELLY!!! If I had a WEGMANS that close I would weigh three tons. Or about half of one cubic ZZUB.

However...if my husband's office was only five minutes from our house. I would be divorced by now. Daily pop ins. To harass. And distract.

Good. and bad there. olo.

Tell me you love Chiavetta's Marinade too????!! Unless it is only a Buffalo thang. Which it might be. I have no idea if you live in Buffalo.

If you do: My condolences.


Cheers, Mel.

Thankfully we live far far from Buffalo, I love in the area of the country with all the politicians, there are days Buffalo might be nicer. I have never tried Chiavetta's Marinade, but I will look for it next time I'm there sometime this week.

The 5 minutes drive is actually wonderful, he never comes home unless asked, he seems to think the kids being at home, we homeschool, is distracting or something. I don't really listen, well I can't, there is too much noise, okay so he might have a point. It is great when I don't feel like taking them somewhere though since he can just pop out do it and be back at work in under 30 minutes, I admit I shamelessly abuse this ability.

 

[AshClan]

I can't believe you didn't give me the heads up that you started this! And now I have to run because I have someplace to be. Why were you so sweaty in that one picture? Did the beer and champagne get you that excited?!

Oh. TINKERBELLARELLA! Hey girlfriend! Long time no see. Hope all is well and I'm glad you've shown your lovely face!

You're killin' it as usual Melly. I will be back.

 

[GottaGetToDisney!]

I made it at the beginning of the trip report?!? Surely, a sign of the impending apocalypse (zombie or otherwise).

To start, I must say:

I'm already bored.

This. Here. Made me laugh and laugh and laugh. A lot..is what I'm saying.

Your imaginings of Detroit...pretty danged accurate. For a Canadian. Who has never been...I'm guessing. But, Detroit was my teen-aged playground much to my mother's dismay and panicked, sleepless nights. I've got mad-love for Detroit.

I guess this would be the time for my confession (NOUsher): I am NOT a vegan! But, I am a vegetarian. I've thought about the vegan thing, but here's the deal:


CHEESE.

I know you know that I know you know what I mean.

It's okay if you have a slight distrust of vegetarians. As I have a slight distrust of carnivores. Sometimes. Most times.

Gotta motor for a Dr's appt. Looking forward to the next installment!!!

Thursday October 8th aka Day 1 Part 2 aka Meat!!! The Last Frontier.

So... after we had finished our shopping. And got all the goods stowed in the back of the van. I asked Mellyman what he wanted to do? He said that he was pretty much ready for a beer. And I said Ok. And directed him to Ruby Tuesday in Cheektowaga.

CHEEKTOWAGA baby. bee. (I hate Buffalo but... I appreciate the name "Cheektowaga") It's fun to say. Even to spell. Hope I got it right but it is simply a sounding out word I think. Plus... I think it's an old Indian thang. And... probably a direction too. As in: "Where should we settlers head? Tell us friendlyish, sparsely dressed, organic smelling and somewhat threatening native peoples?"... Cheektowaga!! Cheektowaga you say???!!!! Yuppers. And... settlers made haste. And settled. There. I'm thinking the whole time the natives where saying "BITE ME!" while showing them their rumps "toward ya!" ish. And. and helping the actual buffalos find a new and better home. Not in Cheektowaga. But not before killing and eating a whole bunch of buffalo and also storing meat for the winter. They *still* sent a bunch a whole bunch of buffalo off to somewhere better. Sustainable buffalo. Tfi. Thinkin' ahead.

Prolly to Niagara On The Lake. It's nice. Upscale. Expensive. Showy.

But. Maybe that's just Me(l). I overthink sometimes.

That said. Ruby Tuesday had $2 beers. And I saw that online. Plus I wanted to check out the salad bar for future trippies.

We parked and headed to the bar. Mellyman ordered us two *TWODOLLAR* SQUEEEEEE!!!! beers and I went to look at sad salad bar.

Mellyman: How's it look?

Me(l): Said. Ugghhh. Gross. Like a salad bar from 1985. And. like it's been sitting around from 1985. Especially the hard boiled eggs. They're farting.

Mellyman: *sigh* We're never eating here are we?

Me(l): Nope. But look at all the people eating it!!! I think they're gonna regret it. The potato salad is sitting in a pool of greyish mayo. Or maybe it's gravy. idk.

Mellyman: Have some beer.

Me(l): I can't.

Mellyman: Why?

Me(l): Cause I'm so freakin' hungry I think I'm gonna kill someone.

Mellyman: Have some salad bar ha ha ha!!! Ha ha ha. (Mellyman amused himself with that lil jokey poo. He liked it apparently heh heh)

Me(l): Don't. Do NOT! I haven't eaten today.

Mellyman: You always eat lunch or breakfast at least. What's wrong?

(And... here... I didn't want to blow it. The big surprise. Because I wanted to go into Texas De Brazil REAL REAL REAL hungry. But... not so hungry that I wanted to kill someone. But. Now. I was. And having a bunch of coffee like 4 coffees earlier in the day was not helping at all. I was fre-ACKin' hungry.)

Me(l): Oh. Just no time today. But do you see my left leg shaking? That's cause I have a wicked caffeine buzz and I'm gonna kill someone.

Mellyman: Ok. Let's have our beers and we'll go to the Cheesecake Factory ok?

Me(l): I'm gonna ask the bartender for a couple of biscuits. See there? They give them out for free. When you eat here.

Mellyman: Mel. We're NOT eating here.

Me(l): No matter.

Then I proceeded to ask the bartender if I could have a couple of the cheesy biscuits and he said no prob and brought me four. OHHHH yeah. Ate two. Stopped at two and then felt much much much much better. Was no longer feeling the bloodlust anymore... and people all around Me(l) were safe.

Whew.

We chatted for a bit and finished our beers and then I said we needed to head out because biscuits were all fine and good but I needed Cheesecake now!!


(I didn't... but was still being secretive about the plan. See that?? So James Bond!)


Cheers, Mel.


Edit: This is only half done but I just got a call and gotta respond so this is "half done" now. Sorry. sorry. fix it tomorrow.


Roll TIDE

 

[Yzma and Kronk]

Mel Mel Mel .... You're Baaaack! My trip reporting Borg Canadian late night friend!

Took me a Toronto minute to find you tho...confuzzled by Buffoon Canadian and the YAK chair, but I found you!!!

Firstly, what were you doing under the Bridge???

Twelvely, your description of Calvin made me laugh out loud. He sounds just like my DS. Freaky Borg

Sixteenly, The Buffalo's are on the Freeway/Interstate before you get to Walden. You know the spot where if you go right you are on your way to Erie, PA. and if you keep driving...Disney. They are grazing watching traffic go by. In all their statuesque grandeur. Oh give them a home where the fake Buffalo roam...

3a. Don't hate on Detroit....I grew up 30 miles from Detroit Rock City! On the Canadian side. Got my "back to school" clothes at the same store as Madonna, in Rochester, MI. Brush with Smarmyness for sure

XIV. Borg with Mellyman on the prices of US booze...but on the good side their "Mikes Hard" isn't really hard - some sort of sluge in a bottle. Not a vodka beverage. We pay a premium for a good source of vodka.

3.14. Alton's. sub-type sandwiches. Nuff said

d). What, no Patrick Franks????

f). Weggie-mans (hi Sher!). Yay!!!! Love me some Weggie's.

Can't wait for part two! How was dinner? The flight? Did you see The Dead Guy at Orlando airport? Sweet Tomatoes or Rudf...oops Fudruckers?
How long did it take before you went to a park? Walmart or Target?

I can't wait - keep it comin'

Now I gotta get some sleep...heehee!

Edited to add: do some people call you Maurice?

 

[luvvwl]

I have never had your Che Guevera marinade, but next time you go to my beloved Wegmans you MUST try Salamida Original State Fair Spiedie Sauce and Marinade.

Trust Sher. You will worship the ground she walks on.

I kid you not.

In other news...our OLOLT WL came thru! We no longer have to live out of a sack like a hobo and lay our weary heads down each night on a different bed at a different resort! So. Yay! It's at OKW tho, which I've never been to, so we'll see.

 

[AshClan]

I have a confession. I have never been to Wegman's. To be fair, there wasn't wasn't one in my neck of the woods until fairly recently (I believe it's the same one referred to by Tinkerbellarella, and it's closer to me than it is to her). I've driven by a few times, but it always seems to be on a weekend, and I don't want to deal with the crowds. I'll get there one of these days, I'm sure. And I'll look for the Chiavetti's, and maybe even Sher's Salamida stuff. Just because I like the alliteration.

I am glad to hear you didn't eat at Ruby Tuesdays. (Well, except for the biscuits, which were a necessary evil.) You've gotta have SOME dining standards. I have the feeling that this is the start of a good trend for this trip

You kinda lost me there in your Cheektowaga story. I'll just have to assume that you knew what you were saying, anyway.

 

[ZZUB]

Especially the hard boiled eggs. They're farting.

Now you have my attention.

The potato salad is sitting in a pool of greyish mayo.

Try the grey stuff, it's delicious! C'mon!! Where's your sense of adventure?

In other news...our OLOLT WL came thru!

Hi Sher. Did you hit your head on something? What the heck fire does this even mean? I thought I understood WL to be Wilderness Lodge but then you wrote that you were staying at Old Key West. So now I'm as confused as Bernie Sanders.

You kinda lost me there in your Cheektowaga story. I'll just have to assume that you knew what you were saying, anyway.

Most reasonable people checked out when she started smearing Native Americans. At Thanksgiving, no less! Where are the diversity police when we need them?

Could you imagine what she'd do if she drove to Florida and went through Okahumpka? Oy vey.

LOLOLOL!! WL = wait list OLONT = Osborne Lights One Last Time OKW you got!

 

[1000thhappyhaunt]

reply guys!

YAK!!!! Yak my dear...What do you mean: "What are you doing under the bridge?"?????? HUH????

Also: Yes... you can call me Maurice. Sounds super sexy. NOSher.

And.... Ha ha ha! and a Heh Heh. On... lil Yak. I'm sure he and Calvin are borg. From what I knowish.

I don't *hate* anything. For real. Except the use of the word "sammies" for sandwiches. And my General's *sick* foods from when I was little.

Hello Jello.

And Goodbye. For the rest of my life.

SHER!!!: YOU DON'T WALK. So how could I worship the ground you walk on????? You either are carried everywhere by your new husband. As well as your house possum. Or else you: Undulate. UNDULATE. Across a room in very high heels. And not much else. The perfect redneck tsunami. Minus the "t" cause you eat roadkill.

What I'm saying here is this: I'm looking for this marinade you told us about next time I'm in WEGMANS! If it can make a raccoon hind end taste good. It's gotta be awesome on a regular ol pork tenderloin.


But... mainly what I'm sayin' here is this: Glad your WL came through!!! So glad you're back at Wilderness Lodge. I KNOW that you know that I know you LOVE it. (Keep ZZUB guessing) It's his only exercise. Well. That. And super pooping.


Ashypoo(h) lol. Heh heh. My sweet POO!: Did I not tell you I started the new trippie? My bad. I kinda think we're SO borg that I either told you or you knew it instinctively. Perhaps I'm wrong because you got really confused about my Cheektowaga story thing. My thinkin's.

It's all good tho. If you *actually*got that. Understood it all. (And... I was rereading it myself and thinking it's *very* random and hard to follow) Then maybe we are too Borg. Which can be frightening. Cause I'm confusselling myself sometimes TBH.

I think ZZUB followed my train of thought there tho.

It's why I feel like he's a kindred spirit to Me(l).

Kinda like the spirit of TEQUILA! Which I both love and hate *but not really hate* (explanation above tfi).

He's just like tequila tho. That's just perfect. Just thot of that now!

Cause he stinks. Real real bad. And is a very distinctive nothing at all like it buzz. ZZUB. heh heh.

Now then... I am glad you're here. Cause I love you.


No crap.


There.


WWUB!!! ie!!: So MAD TO YOU!!!

The "Okahumpka".

I have a million funny things to say here.


But... can't.


All dirty soooo dirty.


I curse you. For the info. Like... I had never heard of that place. Before.


And *then*.... the extreme shut down. On the jokies poo.

I hope you develop shingles at some point. Is all I have here.


Cheers, Mel

Edit: What kind of donuts do you want tomorrow ZZUB??? Stopping by for your coffee break heh heh.

 

[Yzma and Kronk]

Mellllllllll

Under the Bridge. Second posted picture. I know not of where you are.
Trying my best to follow along
Just under some bridge somewhere.

It's not The Fort

Ha ha my speelcheck wrote The Fart

I know it's not that.

Did you Cross at The Falls?

Were you stopping at Hutches for a pre-border dog?

Are you Nexis peeps? Using the "special bridge" to get to the good 'ol US of A?

I know it's not the Skyway.

I'm confuzzled.

Which Ash & Sher can tell you that that's the norm pour moi (NONorn Peterson:
"Beer, Norm?"
"Have I gotten that predictable? Good."). Cheers Ash!
Heh-heh.

So I came back for more.
Of the TR.
Look at your calendar Mel dear....I guess we have to wait 'till December for an update...nudge nudge, wink wink know what I mean...say no more (NO MontyPython)

Uuuummmm doh nuts.....

I'm gunnin' for some of that special Sher-Wegmans merinade too.I just find it hard to get past the Hostess orange cupcakes. The best chemically filled treat around.

It's only 11pm so I may be back.

Or not.

Get on with it will ya.

Cuz I know you speak of the pompitous of love

 

[GreatBiscuit]

Ah great. I get all set to throw out some sarcasm and you go and do something brilliant like passing up salad to eat meat.

Well played my friend.

PM'd some Avatar info. If it still isn't working, lemme know. There are a couple of other things to try.

 

[Tinkerbellarella]

Cats throw up for good reason. Pretty sure it's a planned thingie. On flipflops is really funny, tho. Very personal.

At the end I just watched her walk over and do it. And maybe I smiled.

One time I was deeply asleep and she climbed up on top of me and started to make throwing up sounds. I punted her off. Feeling not a bit of guilt.

I will spare you the description of not waking up in time. And showering cat vomit out of your hair at 2 a.m.

Everything worked out. After she took a poop the size of herself. Basically.

DED

Just. Don't.
The police aren't always there to direct traffic. Sometimes they're actually there to direct people into parking spots because the lot gets completely full and people fight over spots as they open.
If you can ever get that at 1 in the afternoon on a Tuesday, go for it.

 

[1000thhappyhaunt]

Thursday October 8th aka Day 1 aka Part 3 aka Mels's Medley of Meat Feat!!!! (No actual feet tho. Sorry Sher!)

So while Mellyman paid our smallest bar bill ever... I headed out to the van. Belted in. Started it up for him. And began to gnaw on my left thumb until I tasted blood.

And...the bloodlust was back. With a vengeance. We had to move quickly before I launched myself into the back of the van and began drinking the Wickles Pickles Relish, lid and all.

Not that that would be a bad thing. It's *that* good that I could drink it. In fact... I sometimes eat it straight up by the spoonful. (It grosses everyone out but not as much as a big tablespoon of mayo does FBI)

Mellyman got in the car and we headed back to the Galleria Mall which was really close... just down the street. I directed him to park right out front of Texas de Brazil. In the first parking lot before you get to the parking garage. Which is also right beside the Cheesecake Factory tfi.

Then I said,

Me(l): Oh. Guess what, Melly? I changed my mind. We're not going to The Cheesecake Factory.

Mellyman: *sigh* Of COURSE we're not. You just changed your mind this instant, am I right? Where then????

Me(l): Texas de Brazil! Right there!!! (pointed)

Mellyman: *sigh* What is it? Mexican?

Me(l): Ha ha ha ha!!! Seriously??? How do you get "Mexican" outta that? Heh heh LOL!!

Mellyman: Well... I don't know? What is it then Mel?

Me(l): IT'S MEAT!!! ALL THE MEAT WE CAN EAT!!! DOO DA DOO DA!!! It's just like that churassqueria (whatever) place we went to in Montreal! Menember?

Mellyman: Really? I'm in! But do we have a reservation? What if we can't get in?

Me(l): Got one! Booked on Open Table.

Mellyman: What's Open Table?

Me(l): *sigh* Anyways. Yes I booked it as a treat for YOU! A surprise!!! Thought you'd enjoy starting our Food and Whine trip with ALOT of food. And prolly some whining afterwards.

Mellyman: That's really nice Mel. I appreciate it. Very thoughtful and...

(awkward looks between us commence.... uncomfortably "nice" moment ensues. Ick.)

Me(l): OK. Let's just go shall we?

Mellyman: Yep.

We basically speed walked into the restaurant and I checked in for our reservation which we were early for but no matter. We were seated right away.

It was really nice inside. Darkish. With a big cold salad plus hot items chaffing bar area to the one side. but. Tasteful. Nicely done. Fancy. Not like Golden Corral aka grotesque. (NOZZUB) Along the back you could see the open kitchen where the grilling of all the lovely meats occurs. It was definitely a "dress up" kinda place. Looked to be plenty of couples, business dinner diners... and I didn't see a one little kid in there. I told Mellyman to sit beside Me(l) instead of across from me at our four top table... because I figured it would be easier to either steal food from his plate or else off load from mine. Depending.

Whimsy poo.

See how I was thinking here? Practically. Not romantically. Cause I can promise you we weren't gonna be doin' any hand holding here. Too busy. Too busy usin' my meat tongs! LOVED THAT!!!! The tong guys were fun. And much better than just ripping the meat away from the skewers with bare hands.

Altho that might have been more fun. Kinda.

Our server came by and took our drink orders and explained how things worked with our little cards. Flip them one way and the skewers of meat would start flowing. Flip them the other way and we could take a break from meat delivery. Then he explained the salad bar and hot item areas and that he would also be bringing us several side dishes to share right to our table.

Yay!!! Let's get started!!!

We flipped our cards to "stopnomeatplease" and went to the salad bar area.

I got a bowl of lobster bisque and a plate of spicy shrimp, cheese cheese more cheese, asparagus, salami, mushrooms, artichokes and olives. YUM! Mellyman got similar yet different. Most of his items were either cured meats or all the pickled things he could spot. Mellyman likes pickled things. Especially spicy pickled things. Sometimes Mellyman even enjoys being pickled. Me(l) too. If I'm being honest Heh Heh.

The server came back with our drinks. Beer for Mellyman and Pinot Grigio for Me(l). Thanksyou!!! Plus water. Big waters.

Then... he looked at my big bowl of soup and my appy plate piled high and said, "Just want to let you know that there is a ton of meat to come!" He was warning me lol!!!

Mellyman laughed and said, "Don't worry, she's deceptively small but she can pack it away like the old Elvis."

Awww-wwweee... so romantical he is sometimes.

So I added, "I just love it when he gushes like that heh heh!"

Server left in a hurry.

We chatted and wolfed. WELL. Mellyman wolfed. I ate slower. But veryveryvery deliberately. I was: hungry! Baybee!

Then we went back and filled our plates again. This time I just got more shrimp, scalloped potatoes, rice with black beans on top and potato salad. Mellyman got a similar plate as his last. This time tho a buttload of asparagus I noticed.

Mellyman looked at my plate and inquired as to whether or not I felt that I had taken enuff carbs?????

No.

Next round tho.

Then we flipped our cards to "bringusMEAT!!!!!NOW!STAT!!!"

And it began:

I cautioned Mellyman that we should not take doubles of anything and share to start. Then we could go back for favourites.

He said that I was brilliant. *blush*. And... he DID see and appreciate my plan here. I said "good" and then told him to simmer down because it was getting a bite uncomfortable. Again.

We tried: filet mignon, sirloin steak, lamb chop, pork ribs, huge beef rib, leg of lamb, sausage and parmesan crusted chicken. Oh. And pork loin.

Along with sides on the table the server brought: garlic mashed taters and fried bananas. Cheese bread was there but bread eating at a buffet/ayce is a game ender. Note well.

I realized at this point we were in it for the meat itself. No more stupid salad bar. BECAUSE of this: all the meat was AWESOME!!! Tender, tasty, marinated perfectly and perfectly cooked to medium rare. Hot too. PERFECTION.

Even the CHICKEN! DELISH! Nod. (Cause I usually consider chicken at a nice restaurant a boring waste of time.)

We finished what we had and flipped our card to "bringmoremeatevenifitkillshim!" NoMellyman. This is what the Lipitor is for.

I'm not sure what Mellyman returned to sample again entirely cause I was busy so busy. But I had more lamb chops (2!), beef rib, chicken and sirloin.

And then we stopped. We had to.

We lay down on the floor beside our table and began to weep.

Ok. We *didn't* but trust Me(l) it was pretty hard not to.

When our server returned he asked if we were finished and offered us dessert.


We burst into laughter!!! And... I think he got our point here.


Although I forgot to take any pictures of this meal both because I was too hungry going in and didn't think of it and also it didn't seem the atmosphere for it either. Everyone takes food pics at Disney. Just not everywhere else. Capish?

As we paid and left we both agreed it was an awesome experience. For $45 a person we were pleased. Even with the stupid exchange rate. Mellyman sad so! The food quality, quantity, service and atmosphere all worth it. And we made note to return with the kids for a special event dinner because they would *totally* love it too!!!

WE LOVE YOU TEXAS DE BRAZILICIOUS!!! Never change!!! HUG!!!

Then... we proceeded to "side sit" in the van because we were sooooo full we could not sit normally. As upright humans do.

And fart our way back to our crappy hotel for the nite.


Cheers, Mel

Edit: Sorry for the delay there. Just a bunch of crappy crap going on now. Life as it happens sometimes.

 

[DisneyNutMary]

A Mel trip report! Yay!
I'm in for the long haul.

 

[tonga]

Seriously must find a Texas de Brazil within driving distance! We went to a similar place in Cancun, back about 12-13 years ago, and DH still says it was the best part of that vacation.

 

[RedHatDisney]

Well, ****OLA! NO Texas de Brazil in Cali.........."opening soon in Irvine".......I'm seeing a road trip for the Red Hats.......

PORK CHOPS! Artichoke? Asparagus?

What is with people that like Golden Corral? or (gasp) Denny's? barf

Cheers!
