Hell's Kitchen

To celebrate the 27th anniversary of meeting each other, we had a late lunch/ early dinner at Gordon Ramsay's Hell's Kitchen. The lobster risotto was sinful, no pun intended, but the scallops aren't something we'd order again. As an entree, beef wellington for me, and jidori chicken scallopini for Lisa followed by sticky pudding for dessert and a celebratory glass of champagne. A wonderful experience.

 I need these glasses lol - Lisa

Chayo Mexican KItchen & Tequila Bar

I don't understand why Vegas Strip hotels, which typically don't have fridges in the room, throw so much food on your plate. It's not like you can store the leftovers. As both a business expense and as a consumer it feels like an unnecessary waste. Yummy tho.

- Huevos rancheros and chorizo breakfast tacos this morning

Our First Day in Vegas (yest)

A four hour afternoon fight; a room with a city view overlooking the pool; dinner at Guy Fieri's; and a David Copperfield show at MGM. Not a bad haul for a day that started at 3pm CT.

Sad :(

 

VEGAS!!

2-22-22 is the 27th anniversary of me meeting Dan. This year he bought us a 2 day get away back to Vegas. Tonight we see David Copperfield, remember when he made the statue of liberty disappear? I was 7 and I remember it well! Tomorrow is Hell's Kitchen for lunch and "Love" by Cirque de Solei. Excited! - Lisa

Good News/Bad News

 Bought this for myself at Target today on clearance and I loved it so much! I forgot to take it off for bed and scratched my neck in the middle of the night just now and it's in pieces everywhere! Damn! :(

Stop Complaining about Girl Scout Cookies

It’s Girl Scout cookie time- and I think that some people ignore all of the good that the Girl Scouts organization does.

Yes, you might be able to buy knockoff cookies at Aldi- whatever.

You won’t be supporting girls in their fundraising endeavor- so you won’t be helping girls learn business skills, marketing techniques, or communication experience.

But yeah, you might save a dollar.

Girl Scouts regularly provides opportunities to disadvantaged children that may not otherwise be able to afford them.

Support the Girl Scouts.

I just spent an hour with a wonderful 94 year old tax client (DOB November 15th, 1927). She not only drove here on her own, she told me she was going grocery shopping AND stopping at Walmart after the appointment. She did complain about the parking here tho - *because she doesn't use a handicapped plate, and doesn't want one*. She looked, spoke, and sounded an awful lot like my late Great Aunt Mabel.

Meeting up with Jon

Got together with my Cousin Dan today. 1st time in 10 or 12 years. Don’t tell him but he is still cool to me. - Jon Z

Sigh

 If you stacked up every success I've had in my life, I'd have to squat to call it "eye level. "

My stack of mistakes and failures, on the other hand, would be tall enough to need its own elevator.

Someone just drop off a box! lol. I promise to share with my Mom. . . and YaYa since she's curious to try this old childhood treat! - Lisa

Six years ago my good friend Fred Bryan lost his battle with cancer. RIP Fred,  I think of you often.

How Gauche

I think this is appalling. It's a formal event, and the skeleton isn't even wearing a tie?????
