Fabulous Fifth Avenue with the Family

The above title was taken from the patter of a very funny and authentic NYC bus tour operator. Yes, this weekend I was on a red double decker bus touring the city—not once, but twice!

In fact, I did quite a few things I don’t usually do, like: going to a Broadway show (we saw Wicked and it was FANTASTIC!), cruising NY harbor (harbour for the Canadians out there), barbeque at Tavern on the Green, and eating at Juniors (nope, I didn’t have room for the cheese cake after the monster pastrami sandwich—but what a sandwich it was!!)

Yep, I was a total tourist and I had a ball! And said frivolity was all in honor of my miraculous mother’s 80th birthday! Woo hoo! She looks GREAT!! I’ll post a picture when I get one. It was seriously wonderful to have my mom, sister, brother-in-law, and adopted brother here in the city.

Note to self: dwell on your blessings 'cause there’s a ton of them!

Have I taught you nothing?! Dessert before dinner. That way if you run out of room you won't forgo the best part of the meal.

Glad to hear you had a fantabulous time with the familial units.

Hi there DF, thanks for stopping by!
Hugs!

OK Sapphire aka Miss Drama Pants, you continue to crack me up! Seriously, it really is as great as they say--maybe you should do a stop over in the fall... :)
