If You Found A Hundred Dollar Bill On The Sidewalk...

How would you spend it? There is a lot you could buy for $100, but I would do the following:

Buy this adorable dress from J.Crew - $39.99 (on sale!)

Treat the fam to an icecream at Pizzi Farm because Dad has paid one too many times (my pick: Black Raspberry Chocolate Chip frozen yogurt) - $14.00

Share an Upper Crust Garden Veggie pizza with my best girl friends accompanied by a hefty glass of chardonnay - $20.75

Rent a movie On Demand with N - $4.99

Call in sick from work and head to Good Harbor beach in Gloucester for the day - $20 to park ($25 on weekends)

I'm pretty happy with my choices and the grand total comes to... $99.73. Perfect.

For my blogger friends, please share your lists on your blogs. For my non-blogger friends, I'd love to read your lists too. Shoot me a comment with how you would blow 100 bucks if you had the chance!

He Loves Her!

I thought the Gossip Girl finale was awesome - what did you think?

I knew Chuck would finally say the 3 little words! Can't wait for next season.

Manhattans All Around

A very special woman in my life passed away this morning. At 85 years-young, and weighing 80 lbs. soaking wet, she could still put away a stiff Manhattan with the best of them and was as quick-witted as they come.



I will miss you, Aunt Jo, you were a true class act. A trip to the Flying Bridge is in order for a proper toast to your fabulous life.

Love.Always.

Our Romantic Getaway

I don't have much time to write about my vacation at work, but I'll sum it up in one word - FABULOUS. Here are the pictures to document just how much fun we had.

Day 2: Bahamas, Atlantis Resort & Casino.

We got really good at taking our own pictures.


My first piña colada of the trip. Could I look happier?

Next stop, the aquarium at Atlantis. The fish loved N.

Holy octopus.

Day 3: CocoCay Beach, Bahamas.

N was really excited about the BBQ for lunch.

It was really windy, so we headed back to the ship.
Before dinner. N likes these pictures (because he looks great), so I put them up. I'm not a fan, but the mudslides look delish.

Day 4: Key West, Florida.
We hit up Sloppy Joe's for a margarita (10:00am).

Even more drinks at lunch.

And the Schooner Wharf Bar did us in.

The Blackberry and a cigar - perfection.

And somehow we made it back to the ship.
THE END :)
