We celebrated Wednesday and Lil's birthday - it was combined this year...though that leaves us with no real reason to get together in November. (What were we thinking!) I am sure we can come up with something to do. The gift theme this year was giving to charity. Wednesday wanted to give to ACS, Lil to Operation Kindness...giving to charity doesnt give us an opportunity to shop or open presents, so we all thought outside of the box on this one...Fortunately the day of the GNO was a Race for the Cure (see another blog), so we all decided to walk with Wednesday (the gimp - another blog article, if she ever gets around to writing it). Operation Kindness has a wishlist, so we all purchased dog stuff (no one thought of the cats) for Lil to open.
We decided to party at the Ritz - start at the Live Oak Bar and move onto Fearings for dinner. Wow was that a good/bad idea - depending who you talk to. It involves a delicious drink call the French Fizz...ahhh good times, good times. We all had a couple, except Francesca and Lil and WOW was that a strong drink. We were all tipsy when dinner started, and they placed us outdoors, next to the kitchen. Very appropriate spot given our gift of gab. Waiter - Martin (pronounced Marrrrrteeeen), who developed a crush on Francesca (he called her Lucy) - was really great and seemed to enjoy us. Dinner - dont really remember, which was attributed to the F.Fs....I think we all had different things and tasted each others dishes, I also think we raved over everything. Martin put up with us, and before we knew it - we had been there 4 hours and were the last diners. Whoops! We went out back to the bar (too many people) and had a pit stop in the lobby. The people watching there is fab., took me back to the 80's with all the off the shoulder tops, short - tight minis and leg warmers. Anywhooo - it was another great night, over way too quick!
