It’s a little after 8am and i neglected to write the blog last night but there is a good reason for it. As I quietly wait for the rest of the team to get up and dressed for another great day, I’ll give you an idea of yesterday’s day.
The night ended with a 2 free movies. Before I go on, you should know that each day of this week, we drag into the hotel room at a late hour looking like a truck ran us over. The first thing we do is change into our jammies. Well, really the first thing is taking off the shoes and all the Bling. But then it’s gettin’ comfy time. Last night started in much the same way but since there were no cookies that needed baking we thought we’d watch TV in our hotel. And by TV, I mean a movie on TV. We had wanted to see the movie New in Town, but when we turned on the TV in the sitting area, we couldn’t get it to go to a movie. After 3 calls to the front desk and a visit to our room by an “engineer” (seriously) the engineer couldn’t rapidly fix the issue and said she’d pay for all night movies on the other TV. Yay, then she brought up popcorn and soda (not diet coke, but who can complain when it is free). We sat in bed and relaxed for the first time since Wednesday.
Another fun dinner with friends last night. We got to spend the evening with Gina, Kaye, and Mel of the Threaded Pear and Quilter’s Buzz fame. They are a great group of ladies and there was much laughter to be heard from our table. We had no idea where we were going to go for dinner and as Liz was trying to talk and text Gina to tell them where to meet us, Beth was attempting to navigate to a new restaurant which had yet to be decided. The only thing everyone agreed on was Mexican food. Beth requested that we Google for one. I typed a search into the map on my iPhone and came up with several choices but only one nearby and frankly it seemed a little weird. We ended up going there anyway. The restaurant is called the Chino Latino (or maybe it’s the other way around), check out the fun menus. We each had different ones, but this was one of them.
We weren’t sure what to expect when we entered and it looked like a Chinese restaurant.
Liz was amused by the side dish Three Way option. The dessert menu also had amusing titles.
The food was wonderful, the service great and the company fabulous. Check out the Lizzie B fan page on Facebook to see some of our “Unfortunate fortunes” we all posted ours together. We were also amused by the waiters’ t-shirts.
Other highlights of our day:
Simply Renee is a great company with some very unique items. Check them out at their blog Simply Renee Inc.
Linda Lum DeBono kept trying to catch the Lizzie B Girls in the booth but had to settle for their flatter versions.
Here Liz and Beth pose with Kent, the editor of their books. If you’ve followed their blog, you may recall that Kent has found evidence of Tuscadelphia and Whimsyland all over the globe.
Please accept my apologies for my not-so-detailed blog but the week was long and I’m plum worn out. But check out the fan page on Facebook for more Lizzie B Cre8ive hysteria.
